Bible Questions Answered:
“Who
was Paul talking about, when he called him, the Lord's brother?...”

Bible Answer:
Bible Texts:
Galatians
1:18-20 NLT
18
Then three years later I went to Jerusalem to get to know Peter, and
I stayed with him for fifteen days.
19
The only other apostle I met at that time was James, The Lord’s
brother.
20
I declare before God that what I am writing to you is not a lie.
Would the man who wrote 14 of the 27 New Testament books
of your Bible, lie to us?
“...James, The Lord’s brother.
20
I declare before God that what I am writing to you is not a lie.”
Matthew
1:24,25 NLT
24
When Joseph woke up, he did as the angel of The Lord commanded and
took Mary as his wife.
25
But he did not have sexual relations with her until her
son was born. And Joseph named him Jesus.
Did Mary have other children, yes, if you believe the
Bible! (Step brothers and sisters.)
Matthew 13:53-58 NLT (Jesus Rejected at
Nazareth)
53
When Jesus had finished telling these stories and illustrations, He
left that part of the country.
54
He returned to Nazareth, His hometown. When He taught there in the
synagogue, everyone was amazed and said, “Where does He get this
wisdom and the power to do miracles?”
55
Then they scoffed, “He’s just the carpenter’s son, and we know
Mary, His mother, and His brothers—James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas.
56
All His sisters live right here among us. Where did He learn all
these things?”
57
And they were deeply offended and refused to believe in Him. Then
Jesus told them, “A prophet is honored everywhere except in his own
hometown and among his own family.”
58
And so He did only a few miracles there because of their unbelief.
Luke
2:7 NLT
She
gave birth to her firstborn son..."
Matthew
12:46,47 NLT
46
As Jesus was speaking to the crowd, His mother and brothers stood
outside, asking to speak to Him.
47
Someone told Jesus, “Your mother and your brothers are standing
outside, and they want to speak to you.”
Mark
3:31,32 NLT
31
Then Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him. They stood outside
and sent word for Him to come out and talk with them.
32
There was a crowd sitting around Jesus, and someone said, “Your
mother and your brothers are outside asking for you.”
John
2:12 NLT
After
the wedding He went to Capernaum for a few days with His mother, His
brothers, and His disciples.
John
7:2-5 NLT
2
But soon it was time for the Jewish Festival of Shelters,
3
and Jesus’ brothers said to Him, “Leave here and go to Judea,
where your followers can see your miracles!
4
You can’t become famous if you hide like this! If you can do such
wonderful things, show yourself to the world!”
5
For even His brothers didn’t believe in Him.
Acts
1:14 NLT
They
all met together and were constantly united in prayer, along with
Mary the mother of Jesus, several other women, and the brothers of
Jesus.
I
Corinthians 9:5 NLT
Don’t
we have the right to bring a believing wife with us as the other
apostles and The Lord’s brothers do, and as Peter does?
The brothers of Jesus, did not believe in Christ's
divinity, until after the resurrection.
James was a man respected because of his devout life.
James became the bishop of Jerusalem, and head of the Jerusalem
Council (Acts 15:13). James was the author of the Epistle of
James.
Prayer:
Romans
15:13 KJV
Now
The God Of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye
may abound in hope, through the power of The Holy Ghost.
