The term apostle is derived from the New Testament Greek word ἀπόστολος or apostolos, meaning one who is sent forth as a messenger [1][2] and should not be confused with a disciple (who is a follower or a student who learns from a "teacher").

No, disciples and apostles are not the same. Disciples are generally followers or students of a teacher or a philosophy, while apostles are specifically chosen messengers or representatives, often with a specific mission or authority.
