A term originally refering to the followers of Christ Jesus. They were frequently refered to as the brothers. Just as your "brothers" are your posse and are always near you, so also Jesus' posse was always with him--learning and growing from what he had to say.
Now, the term can refer to anyone who follows the teachings of another. It is a word that combines the definitions of student and follower.

Recipe for a Disciple-
"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you."
-Philippians 4:4-9

Get the Disciple mug.From the Book of Genesis: Onan and Er were brothers; when Er died, their father Jacob decided that Onan should assume matrimonial duties with Er's childless widow. However, instead of completing the act, Onan "spilled his seed on the ground". God considered this an evil act and Onan was slain for it.
A man was observed on the London Underground practicing the faith of a Disciple of Onan. Police were called and apprehended the suspect.

Get the Disciple of Onan mug.A genuine underground music lover that does not look down on, patronize, or belittle others for liking popular artists, but instead, introduces them to musicians they had not previously heard of or known about which they would more than likely appreciate. This certain person also does not discriminate towards a musician or group based on their popularity, and will listen to any music they truly enjoy, impartially. Not simply a music geek; carries an astute ideology on music which was passed on to them through the artists' work they indulge in. Has intentions to indirectly educate those around them about the true, unstructured beauty of music.
