Disciples/apostles » What the disciples are
Therefore ye are no longer strangers, and foreigners, but fellow-citizens with the saints and of the houshold of God, Built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone, On whom all the building fitly framed together,
And the walls of the city had twelve foundations, and upon them the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

Happy are they who are persecuted for righteousness sake; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Happy are ye when men shall revile and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely for my sake.

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
