When Christ was on Earth and He and His disciples were walking through Israel, Their main agenda was to teach about the benefits of the Kingdom of Heaven and how to attain citizenship there. Christ came as an Ambassador to His Father, and as He was on Earth, The Fullness of The Godhead dwelt upon Him in His bodily form. And so God was walking about Israel with Their disciples and teaching and sharing. When the Disciples were alone with God, God spoke to them about the things which pertain to Everlasting and Everlasting. They learned the mysteries of the Universe and how God had set all things. Since the disciples were already versed in the Creation, God clarified and broadened and secured their knowledge.
God's time with His disciples lasted for about 3 and a half years, so I read. And during these 3 and a half years, God and His disciples may have never been 1 day apart from each other. And so they formed a really close bond. They may have been as 'bond-servants'. They were bonded to Him..
After Jesus had ascended on High, The Day of Pentecost approached and they waited for The Promise of God to arrive. Jesus had promised them that the Power from on High would come and empower them so that they could go into the 'Gentile' world to preach and teach and baptize in The Name of The Father and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit and to remind them of what they had heard from Him.
And so after the Holy Spirit came upon them and after more than 3,000 persons were converted that day, a commune of sorts was made. They all sold what they owned and brought it before the Apostles' feet so as to have a common commune. And during these times, noone suffered from 'want'. They all had what was needed.
It was a close-knitted family with Christ as their main union. They all shared the same heart, the same mind, the same Spirit. From these commune days, The Apostles went and furthered the Word which they had received into different places.
Modern day Middle East, the Arab World, was the first place Church was established. The Apostle Paul built Churches in Syria, in Turkey, in Greece and in many other Arab countries. In Antioch, Syria, they began to be called Christians. And not only Paul but all the other Apostles also went and established Churches. And the other Apostles also went and established Churches. Thomas is supposedly the Patron to India. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_the_Apostle
The Apostle Jude supposedly went to Armenia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jude_the_Apostle
The Apostle Bartholomew supposedly went to India. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartholomew_the_Apostle
The Apostle Andrew supposedly went to Georgia, Cyprus, Malta, Romania, Kiev Rus and its Ukrainian and Russian Successors, Scotland and Spain. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_the_Apostle
These are just a few...
John and Mary may have stayed around Israel seeing that John had taken Mary into his home. Jesus had said, 'Women, here is thy son' and to John He said, 'Here is thy mother'.
From such a wonderfully loving group of believers to modern day chaos is how things have changed.
