Bible Charts: December 2006

Four Lists of Apostles

Chart by Charles Dailey

This chart is from chapter 1 of the Acts course at NCBible.Info. Get the full size version there.

Each list is different, showing that one writer did not copy from the other. Even the two lists by Luke are different.
Each list has the same framework, showing that the disciples were organized into three teams of four members each.
Team one was the inner circle consisting of two sets of brothers.
Team two may have handled arrangements such as meals.
The New Testament writers came from teams one and two.
Judas came from team three.

Only Jesus had the Holy Spirit without limitations.
The 12 (first Jews) and the first Gentiles had the Baptism of the Spirit.
Only the 12 could dispense the Second Generation gifts of the Spirit.
The Second Generation men could not empower others.
Every immersed believer has the presence of the Spirit in their life.
That inward strength can be increased or diminished, according to our own choices.

This chart is from an online class that I teach at NCBible.Info entitled Biblical Introduction 2. The full size version is available there.

The Old Testament provides a historical foundation for the New Testament writings.
The New Testament is valid for the reasons cited.
The New Testament reveals the collective body of believers - the church. To claim that our person relationship with the Lord is all that matters misses the great message of the letters.
