In this episode, we discuss the nuances of discipleship vs. apostleship in early Christianity. We explain the differences between the two, highlighting that an apostle witnessed Jesus' ministry and resurrection, while a disciple is a learner or follower of Christ. We will also introduce to you the Edict of Milan and its impact on the early Christian church, with the understanding that it led to a lack of commitment among new converts. Several historical events and factors shaped early Christianity, including the destruction of Jerusalem, the transmission of Gospels and letters, and the emergence of the Apostles Creed. One important emphasis we will discuss is the persecution faced by early Christians and the development of heresies, emphasizing the need for urgency in sharing the gospel.
