Apostles

When it was day, He called His disciples; and He selected from among them twelve, whom He also named Apostles.

The Apostles, on their return, related to Jesus all they had done. Then He took them and withdrew to a quiet retreat, to a town called Bethsaida.

Simon

And walking along the shore of the Lake of Galilee He saw two brothers--Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew--throwing a drag-net into the Lake; for they were fishers.

"You," replied Simon Peter, "are the Christ, the Son of the ever-living God."

One day, passing along the shore of the Lake of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew, Simon's brother, throwing their nets in the Lake; for they were fisherman.

These twelve were Simon (to whom He gave the surname of Peter)

James

He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zabdi and his brother John, in the boat with their father Zabdi mending their nets; and He called them.

Six day later, Jesus took with Him Peter and the brothers James and John, and brought them up a high mountain to a solitary place.

Then the mother of the sons of Zabdi came to Him with her sons, and knelt before Him to make a request of Him.

And He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zabdi. Then He began to be full of anguish and distress,

James the son of Zabdi and John the brother of James (these two He surnamed Boanerges, that is 'Sons of Thunder')

and so were Simon's partners James and John, the sons of Zabdi.)

Simon Peter was with Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zabdi, and two others of the Master's disciples.

Afterwards He was seen by James, and then by all the Apostles.

John

Jesus sent Peter and John with instructions. "Go," He said, "and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat it."

There was at table one of His disciples--the one Jesus loved-- reclining with his head on Jesus's bosom.

So she ran, as fast as she could, to find Simon Peter and the other disciple--the one who was dear to Jesus--and to tell them, "They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have put Him."

Peter turned round and noticed the disciple whom Jesus loved following--the one who at the supper had leaned back on His breast and had asked, "Master, who is it that is betraying you?"

One day Peter and John were going up to the Temple for the hour of prayer--the ninth hour--and, just then,

that which we have seen and listened to we now announce to you also, in order that you also may have fellowship in it with us, and this fellowship with us is fellowship with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.
