I don't mean to sound harsh, but it would take several pages to answer your question. If you are asking this in the higher education (university +) category, then you ought to be smart enough to know this is not an appropriate question for this category. By the way it should be "before they became a disciple" not "become a disciple". Twelve is plural, and did you really get an education? Nice try!!
