In John 21:20 , John..... John 21 :15 ..Peter .... John 20:27 ... Thomas
I don't know about them being referred to as "the circle", but the three disciples of the twelve that Jesus took with him to certain places, like the Mountain of Transfiguration, Garden of Gethsemane, etc. were Simon Peter, James, and John. (Matthew 17)
Peter, James, and John were the three disciples who went with Jesus to the mountain where he was transfigured.
Peter, one of Jesus' disciples, denied knowing him three times before Jesus' crucifixion. After Jesus' resurrection, Peter became a prominent leader in the early Christian church.
Off hand, I would say that of the twelve disciples, John and Peter were His two closest friends. John, in his gospel called himself "the disciple whom Jesus loved". Peter was the one who after he had denied Jesus three times, was asked by Jesus: "Peter do you love me?" three times.
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.
Here Judas betrayed Jesus and peter denied Jesus three times.
In the Bible story where Jesus calms the storm, there were twelve disciples present with him in the boat. The disciples were frightened as a great storm arose, and Jesus rebuked the winds and the waves, calming the sea. This story can be found in the New Testament in the book of Matthew, chapter 8, verses 23-27.
The three closest disciples to Jesus were Peter, James, and John. They were part of his inner circle and often accompanied him during important events, such as the Transfiguration and the Garden of Gethsemane. Peter was known for his leadership and was considered the rock on which the church would be built. James and John were brothers and were known as the "Sons of Thunder" for their zeal and passion. They were all key figures in spreading Jesus' teachings and establishing the early Christian church.
The disciples were Peter, James and John. (Mark 14:33)
Peter denied Jesus three times, Judas betrayed Jesus, and they all ran away.
Jesus chose to take Peter, John, and James with him during certain significant events in his ministry because they were considered his closest and most trusted disciples. These three disciples were present during key moments such as the Transfiguration and the raising of Jairus' daughter, indicating their importance in Jesus' inner circle.
1.He guided them. 2.He taught them. 3.He loved them.
