First off, The New Testament is what counts now.

Don't believe everything you read. Jesus came for the Jews not the gentiles.
As we know Paul who was originaly Saul never met Jesus nor was he one of the original disciples yet he alone saw the sheet descend from heaven with all the unclean animals in it (there were no witnesses).
Despite there being no witnesses he was able to persuaded the original apostles that it was a message from Jesus that they can now preach the word to the non jews (gentiles) and so the birth of Christianity came about from ONE person who wasn't one of the original 12.
How can that be possible if Jesus himself said
"Christ counselled his disciples to take along two or three witnesses when settling a dispute: "Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more,
that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established." (Matthew 18:15-16) "
