Jesus calling his disciples to follow him was significant because it marked the beginning of his ministry and the spread of his teachings. By choosing specific individuals to be his followers, Jesus established a close relationship with them and entrusted them with spreading his message of love, forgiveness, and salvation to others. This act of calling disciples also demonstrated Jesus' belief in the power of community and the importance of working together to fulfill God's plan.
The calling of the disciples took place at the beginning of Jesus' ministry, shortly after he was baptized by John the Baptist.
Before his baptism, Jesus did not have formally identified disciples. The Gospels suggest that he began to gather followers after his baptism by John the Baptist, when he started his public ministry. However, there were individuals, such as John the Baptist's own disciples, who recognized Jesus' significance before his baptism. The formal calling of his disciples, as recorded in the Gospels, occurs after this event.
The disciples of Jesus in order of their significance in his ministry were Peter, James, and John. These three disciples were often chosen by Jesus to witness important events such as the Transfiguration and the raising of Jairus' daughter.
Yes the disciples did forsake everything, even their families to follow Jesus both day and night.From city to city.
Remember me.

The disciples were chosen by Jesus through personal invitation. He called them to follow him, and they responded by leaving their previous lives to become his followers and learn from him.
The disciples immediately followed Jesus because they believed he was the Messiah and wanted to learn from him and spread his teachings.
The 12 disciples of Jesus in the order of their calling were: Peter, Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot.
Jesus and all the earliest disciples were Jews.

The disciples didn't have to do anything. Jesus chose regular men and transformed them into preachers, teachers and healers. And that is what God can do for you if you let him :)
