Said by no Disciple of Christ, ever. :-)
For leaders of a religion to try to make the Disciples catholics is sad. Especially when they are presenting this lie to further their power or blind their followers.
It is small (or big) lies such as this that give us insight into whether a religion, a religious leader or an individual walk a true path.
Yeshua was a Jew as were all His Disciples.
Simon was Shimon.
James was Yakov (that is, Jacob).
John was Yochanan.
Bartholomew was Bar-Talmai (son of Ptolemy).
Matthew was Mattityahu, meaning, “gift from God.”
Thomas was Tau’ma, an Aramaic name.
Thaddaeus was a variant of Theudas, which was a Grecian version of Judas or Yehuda.
Andrew and Philip are interesting because those are clearly Greek names—Andreas and Filippos.
Judas Iscariot was Yehuda.
Clearly not a catholic amongst G-d’s chosen people. :-)
