This Apostle, Some Times Referred Too As "James The Less" Series

------

~ Most of us have heard gospel songs about sitting down with Abraham, and Isaac and Jacob, and talking to them, and that is truly going to be wonderful, but just think of it, we'll also get to talk to all the apostles, the apostle James "the less" we'll find out first hand what James did, and I'm sure he did much.

~Although we know nothing of the labors of the apostle James "the less" -- his name will live for-ever engraved on one of the twelve pillars of the Eternal City, seeing he was one of "the twelve apostles of the Lamb" (Rev. 21:14).

---------

~ I think of a man called ANTIPAS in Rev.2: that Jesus calls His faithful Martyr; no where else in the bible do we find any thing about brother ANTIPAS, if his name was not recorded in Rev.2: we'd not even know he ever excited, but Jesus knows all about him, Jesus is the One that mentions him.

~ James is not mentioned separately in Scripture, except in the lists of the apostle's names, we know nothing about the apostle James- "the less"

~Jesus the Judge will honor James because of his faithfulness, not for how famous he became, and dear heart, that will also be our case as well.

* Tradition has it, that James the Less, come too his death by being thrown from the pinnacle of the temple, but when he was found still to be alive; he was then beaten to death with clubs.

~ All the apostles accept John died a martyr's death; {for the cause of Christ] John was imprisoned on the island of Patmos for a time where he wrote the Book of Revelation, he was later freed and went to Turkey, perhaps on a mission to establish churches there.

~John is said to have died a normal death, we'll talk about John later Lord willing.

~I'm looking forward to meeting the apostle James "the less" and I'm sure you are as well.
