Jesus told this parable in response to someone asking "Who is my neighbor", that is, "Who should I be kind to?". The people who were thought "good" by the Pharisees did not respond and help the injured man, but the Samaritan (a member of a race despised by the Pharisees) did. There are two messages here. (1) People we think are good fail to act the way God wants and (2) People we think are "bad" can actually be good in God's eyes because of the way they treat others.
The main ideas in Jesus' message was "Believe in God" and everything that pertained to that.
Either they do not trust your message or they do not trust Jesus'.
The teachings of Jesus ARE Christ's message because he was Jesus Christ. Christ and Jesus are the same person.
Humble yourself.

Apostle literally means, one sent forth with a message. Jesus' 12 disciples, in Matthew 10 were sent forth by Jesus as apostles carrying the message of Jesus. For quite awhile they were the only apostles carrying this message, as the church was just beginning. Note that Jesus himself was also called an apostle, in Hebrews 3. He was "sent forth" by God, with a message and purpose.
The term "gospel" in the Bible refers to the teachings of Jesus Christ and the message of salvation through faith in him. It is considered good news because it offers hope, forgiveness, and eternal life to those who believe in Jesus.
2 things.. the first being witnessing Jesus resurrected, the second, receiving the baptism of the holy spirit at Pentecost, which empowered them to spread the good news of Jesus's triumph over death even in the face of their own death
The twelve disciples and all who believe their message. That means you and me if we believe in Jesus.
