The 12 disciples/apostles of Jesus were the foundation stones of His church, several even wrote portions of the Bible. In Revelation 21:14 we are told that the twelve foundations of the wall of the New Jerusalem will have in them the names of the twelve disciples/apostles. It is evident,...
Even in movies like "The Wolf Man," the transformation process happens largely off-screen — the man himself, rather than his process of transformation, is the primary focus of the film. At the same time, the werewolf transformation in "The Wolf Man" is convincing, particularly considering ...
There Jesus sent two of the disciples on ahead 2with these instructions: “Go to the village there ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied up with her colt beside her. Untie them and bring them to me. 3And if anyone says anything, tell him, ‘The Master needs them...
There are three people named Judas in the gospels (and eight total in theNew Testament). Two of them were disciples of Jesus, and one of them was Jesus’ half-brother, which probably made family gatherings a little awkward after Jesus’ death. It’s also possible that Jesus’ brother Juda...
After everyone was full, Jesus told his disciples, "Now gather the leftovers, so that nothing is wasted." So they picked up the pieces and filled twelve baskets with scraps left by the people who had eaten from the five barley loaves. ...

It is thought this might have been the ‘upper room’ where the Last Supper was held and where the disciples stayed after the ascension. From Acts we also learn that as well as being close to Peter, Mark was also the cousin of St Barnabas the apostle (Colossians 4:10). He accompanied...
Most Christians wouldn't infer vampirism from the story of the Last Supper. Christ offers the chalice containing wine to signify his blood to his disciples and directs them to drink it. But there is a parallel between the Eucharist and vampire legends: Both suggest that the consumption of blo...
(53:8). But 53:11 indicates that the Servant will see "light" -- that is, life outside the grave -- evenafterhis atoning death. I expect that Jesus also saw this promise, which underlies his teaching to his disciples that "it is written" that the Son of Man would be raised from...
