An apostle is one chosen for a particular mission. The apostles of Jesus Christ were to lead in spreading the Gospel. All those apostles died in the faith. There are many disciples of Jesus Christ today, but no apostles.
The term "apostle" is often associated with a follower of a particular ideological or philosophical system. For example, Jehovah's Witnesses are sometimes called "Apostles of denial" because they deny the deity of Jesus Christ and his literal and physical resurrection. (Details can be found in my book "Rescuing Slaves of the Watchtower.")
