Bible Question: After reading the Book of Acts we see that the early church was thriving and growing. We don't hear much about what happened to the disciples in their ministry and how they lived/died. What happened to the disciples? |
Bible Answer: Actually, Nolan, we don't know from biblical sources what happened to all the disciples (Apostles). It's not like reading in the Old Testament about the patriarchs -- that so-and-so lived x-number of years, had sons and daughters, and then he died. There are any number of extra-biblical sources and traditions that tell of the fate of the Apostles, and they make interesting reading. Whether they are all entirely accurate and reliable is perhaps disputable. --Hank |
