Revelation 21:14, "And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb."

I believe the twelfth apostles is Matthias as he was a disciple/apostles of the LAMB during the building of the Gospel church. Paul followed some time later.

Some people sort of discount Matthias as he is only mentioned as a replacement of Judas, but God counted him as an apostle (Acts 1:23-26) Matthias is only mentioned in this portion of Scripture, but some of the other apostles are only mentioned once.

Who is Matthias and why was he chosen instead of Barnabas?

The answer is found in the chronology of the scriptures. Matthias is first mentioned in Acts 1:23 and then later in Acts 1:26. Barnabas is not mentioned until 4:36 and then later in chapter 9. Acts 1 describes how the disciples choose lots to find a replacement for Judas. Matthias was selected but we know nothing about him before this time or afterwards. He must have been a faithful servant, someone like Stephen. The first mention of Barnabas is when he gave all his possessions to the church in Chapter 4. It wasn't until Chapter 9, many years later, that he goes on a mission with Paul. I find it interesting that the apostles felt the need to replace Judas. Why? Most people interpret the events to mean that this decision was wrong to make and God had plans to raise up a 12th apostle through Paul. However, drawing of lots was quite common method to make decisions at that time and even centuries later(however, not normal for the Church).
