Webster's definition of a disciple is "a pupil or follower of any teacher or school."[i] A true disciple is not just a student or a learner, but a follower: one who applies what he has learned. Thus, a true disciple will ask, "What would Jesus do"John 8:31-32
31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”A disciple of Jesus is someone who is following Jesus, being changed by Jesus, and is committed to the mission of Jesus. We find Mark 1:17 (Matthew 4:19) to be a helpful verse that can serve as a useful framework around which we can place the teachings of the New Testament on what it means to be a disciple.
What is the test of a true disciple : Submits to God's Word
Ultimately, a true disciple of Christ must submit to God's Word, the Bible, since it is what He has given to his people to speak, to guide, to encourage, to teach, to correct, and to give hope. It reveals Him, His will, and all His great and precious promises.
Who is the perfect disciple
In addition, it is precisely because Mary, through her fidelity to what the Father had asked of her and by her selfless, sinless, unwavering commitment to Her Son, Mary was the first and perfect disciple. Her entire life was in service to her Son and His Mission in the world.
Who was God’s closest disciple : John 21:24 states that the Gospel of John is based on the written testimony of this disciple. Since the end of the first century, the beloved disciple has been commonly identified with John the Evangelist.
The assumption that the beloved disciple was one of the Apostles is based on the observation that he was apparently present at the Last Supper, and Matthew and Mark state that Jesus ate with the Twelve. Thus, the most frequent identification is with John the Apostle, who would then be the same as John the Evangelist. Paul did not follow Jesus' early ministry as he was actively persecuting Christians; Paul was not a disciple of Jesus. Paul's only encounter with Jesus personally was the experience on the Damascus Road, which Acts claims occurred after Jesus' death.
Is everyone a disciple of Jesus
The New Testament often distinguishes disciples from members of the crowds who followed Jesus because of the miracles He performed. Disciples certainly were followers of Jesus, but not all followers were disciples.Peter
Jesus answered, “I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me.” John 13:31–38.True disciples love to submit themselves to the Lord with peace in their heart. They are humble and submissive because they love Him. They have faith to fully accept His will, not only in what He does but also in how and when. Saint John, Apostle
On December 27, we celebrate the Feast of Saint John, Apostle and Evangelist – the “disciple Jesus loved” (John 13:23). As the author of a Gospel account, three epistles, and the book of Revelation, John was not only a close friend of Jesus during his time, but a spiritual teacher for the ages.
Who is God’s Favourite disciple : In the Gospel of John, the beloved disciple emerges as a close, personal friend of the Lord. Along with Martha, Lazarus, and Mary, John is described explicitly in this Gospel as one whom Jesus loved (see John 11:3, 5). His position at the table during the Last Supper reflected not only honor but also closeness.

Why was Paul not a disciple
Was Paul a disciple or an apostle Since Paul never knew the earthly Jesus, he never claimed to be his disciple. Unlike the 12, Paul never heard wisdom directly from the mouth of Jesus before his death. However, he believed that the resurrected Jesus had chosen him to take the message of the gospel to the gentiles. Paul simply does not meet these requirements. He was not a witness of Jesus' resurrection. After Matthias was chosen, Luke says no more apostles were entertained. They remained an exclusive group: “No one else dared join them, even though they were highly regarded by the people.” (Acts 5:13).Matthias according to the Acts of the Apostles was the Apostle chosen by the remaining eleven Apostles to replace Judas Iscariot following Judas' betrayal of Jesus, and his own suicide. He is unique as an Apostle, as Jesus himself did not make his appointment personally.
Can anybody be a disciple : I testify that everyone can be a disciple of the Savior. Discipleship is not constrained by age, gender, ethnic origin, or calling. Through our individual discipleship, we, as Latter-day Saints, build up a collective strength to bless our brothers and sisters throughout the world.
