WHAT DOES FISHER OF MEN MEAN IN ENGLISH?

fisher of men

Apostle (Christian)

According to the Bible's New Testament, the Apostles are the primary disciples of Jesus of Nazareth, the central figure in Christianity. During the life and ministry of Jesus in the first century AD, the apostles were his closest followers and became the primary teachers of the gospel message of Jesus. The word "apostle" derives from the Ancient Greek word ἀπόστολος, meaning "messenger" or "envoy" that was formed from the prefix ἀπό- and root στέλλω. Often the word "disciple" is used interchangeably with "apostle" – for instance the Gospel of John makes no distinction between the two terms. In modern usage, prominent missionaries are identified as apostles – a practice which stems from the Latin equivalent of apostle, missio, the source of the English word "missionary". While Christian tradition often refers to the apostles as being twelve in number, the count is ambiguous. Each of the four canonical gospel discusses certain narrative events in the ministry of Christ differently. Different gospel writers give different names for the same individual, and apostles mentioned in one gospel are not mentioned in another.
