How do we know that the apostles were true witnesses of Jesus?

Answered in 1 source

The apostles are considered true witnesses because they were eyewitnesses of His ministry, death, and resurrection, as described in Acts.

The apostles were true witnesses of Jesus based on their firsthand experiences with Him. As described in Luke 24:46 and Acts 1:8, they not only witnessed His life, teachings, and miracles but also saw His death and resurrection. Their calling as apostles came after they had been disciples, having learned directly from Him. The account of their experiences is foundational to the apostolic testimony, which is crucial for the gospel's credibility. Their role as witnesses was not just to recount events but to testify to the truth of Jesus Christ's salvation, and their teachings form the foundation of Christian belief.
