SearchApostles Teach About Jesus
On Thursday night the apostles had a wonderful meeting in this upper chamber and all pledged
themselves to go forth in the public preaching of the new gospel of the risen Lord except
Thomas, Simon Zelotes, and the Alpheus twins. Already had begun the first steps of changing
the gospel of the kingdom — sonship with God and brotherhood with man — into the
proclamation of the resurrection of Jesus. Nathaniel opposed this shift in the burden of their
public message, but he could not withstand Peter‘s eloquence, neither could he overcome the
enthusiasm of the disciples, especially the women believers.
