That He was the messiah who had to suffer, die and be resurrected to life again:
Luke 24:22-27New International Version (NIV)
22 In addition, some of our women amazed us. They went to the tomb early this morning 23 but didn't find his body. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive. 24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see Jesus."
25 He said to them, "How foolish you are, and how slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?"27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.

Why the Old Testament is part of the Gospel although it is not part of Jesus teachings?
Jesus used the OT to teach the disciples on the road to Emmaus. In Luke 24:27 Jesus taught the disciples from 'Moses and the prophets'. Jesus also used quotes from the OT as in Luke 20:17, Luke 20:42. The Old Testament is part of the Bible because it shows us about the creation of the world and man and how God has dealt with man through the ages. It also tells us a lot about God's character, the way of salvation and has many prophecies about the coming saviour.
Why didn't the disciples know Jesus after his resurrection?
In the account of the disciples walking to Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35), it is said that "they were kept from recognizing him." Here Luke is giving the explanation (that God had kept them from recognizing Jesus) for something that he did not think could be explained in the normal way. The same can be assumed to have happened with Mary Magdalene (John 20:14), when she met Jesus in the garden.
Why did Jesus choose to rename his disciples?
Jesus chose to rename his disciples as a way to symbolize their new identities and roles as followers of him. This renaming signified a spiritual transformation and a deeper commitment to their faith and mission.
The valley over which Jesus traveled with his disciples?
The valley over which Jesus traveled with his disciples is commonly known as the Valley of Kidron. This valley is located between the Mount of Olives and the Old City of Jerusalem in Israel. Jesus and his disciples would have passed through this valley on their way to the Garden of Gethsemane.
How did Jesus give his disciples a way to remember Him by?
During the Last Supper when Jesus shared the bread and the wine He said, "As often as you do this, do so in rememberence of Me."
Why did John's disciples leave him for Jesus?
John's disciples left him for Jesus because they recognized Jesus as the Messiah and the fulfillment of John’s own prophecies about a coming savior. John's ministry was to prepare the way for Jesus, and he encouraged his followers to follow Jesus, acknowledging that he must decrease as Jesus increased. This shift signified their belief in Jesus' divine authority and mission, leading them to embrace His teachings and leadership.
How many disciple's did he have?
Jesus had 12 apostles although many other people followed Jesus around and tried to assist him and are called disciples. All of those that follow our Lord, living and dead, are called disciples. We have no way of knowing this number.
What is the propuse of a disciple?
All religions have disciples. A disciple is a follower of what ever religion they desire. Christian disciples follow Jesus Christ's teachings in the Bible. A disciple of Jesus has the responsibility to tell other people about Jesus Christ. In this way people can know what Jesus Christ did for the world and if called by God for salvation can respond to that call. Down through the centuries disciples of Christ have spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and many people now have eternal life. Christians believe that Jesus is "the way, the truth and the life" and that no one comes to the Father (God) except through Jesus ( John 14:6).

Answer 1The stopped what they were doing, gave up everything and followed him.Answer 2They were like "Duuude... no way!" and played air guitar.
Why is it that there no women disciples?
I am sure there were many women disciples of Jesus. A disciple is someone who has been taught or trained in some way and Jesus did not restrict his teaching to men only.But there were no women among the 12 disciples. The twelve were the ones Jesus chose to be the leaders of the new Christians after He had gone. They received special training and teaching from Him to do this work.Probably He chose men because it was relevant to Jewish society at that time.
