apostle/apostle of faith


Explanation:
"Navjestitelj" je malo uzvišeniji izraz (na većini hrvatskih sajtova koji pominju tu reč ona se odnosni na Hrista/Krista i arhanđela Gavrila/Gabrijela, pa se "apostle" malo više slaže sa time.

evangelist, ili preacher


Explanation:
Trebalo bi malo vise informacija, radi kontektsta, ali imas u Bibliji navjestanje evandjelja, pa su s time vezani pojmovi evandjelist, evangelizator, ili propovjednik (od propovijedanje). Ova tri pojma nisu medjusobno sinonimi, a najbolje bi odgovarao pojam evandjelist, dakle na En: evangelist.

Isto imas ovaj izraz kolokvijalno u upotrebi, upravo na engleskom, kada se za nekoga tko revno siri ili zagovara neku ideju, ne nuzno crkvenu - moze biti jednostavno strastveno odusevljenje nekim proizvodom, metodom i sl., za toga kazu da je "evangelist" te ideje.
