According to the Scriptures, your opening post is wrong. James the Less (apostle) is one person, ...and James the Just (not apostle), the brother of Jesus and bishop of Jerusalem is a diferent person.

Rev. 22:12 “‘Look! I am coming quickly, and the reward I give is with me, to repay each one according to his work. Psalm 62:12 Also loyal love is yours, O Jehovah, For you repay each one according to his deeds. Is. 40:10 Look! The Sovereign Lord Jehovah will come with power, And his arm will...

James, the son of Mary was: the brother of the Lord, James the Just, the bishop of Jerusalem, the writer of the letter. He died 62 CE. James, the son of Clephas and the other Mary was: one of the twelve apostles of Jesus, who followed him everywhere (Luke 6:15; Matt. 19:28). In these two...

We know that Jesus absolutely believed everything the Bible said was true (Read the quotes I included before). John 17:17 Sanctify them by means of the truth; your word is truth. Do you think Jesus would have said to anyone "The Bible contradicts itself"? John 10:35 (...) the scripture cannot...

When Jesus preached on earth, the Hebrew Scriptures (which some call the Old Testament) were already complete and could be read and studied. Did Jesus believe everything he read in the Bible? Did he believe that God created a man from dust and then a woman as his mate (Matt. 19:4-6)? Did Jesus...

Haven't you wondered why many modernized Christians don't believe that Adam and Eve were real people, even though Jesus considered them the first couple of humans created by God? Or why not even the Jews themselves believe that Moses really existed, and think that the 40 years in the desert...

Remember that in this topic the supposed luminaries of Christianity are being mentioned, people who supposedly have more biblical information to study and share ... There are thousands of people who read their articles, listened to their lectures and admired them as their religious teachers and...

Don't you wonder if those powerful works that those individuals directed and/or witnessed in their churches were real? How can you witness supposed powers that go beyond the human, and still lose faith? It was all false on the part of those men; from their faith, to their religious services and...

The Bible clearly shows that when the four names of Jesus' brothers are mentioned, it is referring to the children of Mary who accompanied her, NOT the followers of Jesus. Matthew 12:46 While he was yet speaking to the crowds, his mother and brothers were standing outside, seeking to speak to...

Mary, the mother of Jesus, had other sons and daughters. Mary, the wife of Clopas/Cleophas/Alphaeus, another woman, had a son named James (the Less), and another one named Joses. The Bible does not say that these men were related to Jesus. James the Less, the son of Clopas and the other Mary...

Just as several Marys are mentioned in the Greek Scriptures (NT), so are several James mentioned. Three of them are: 1) A James who was a follower and apostle of Jesus. This James was Jesus' cousin because he was the son of a sister of Mary named Salome, brother of the apostle John, writer of...

The apostle John does distinguish between the three Marys, besides Mary the mother of Jesus. 1) Mary the sister of Lazarus John 11:1 Now a man named Lazarus was sick; he was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 This was the Mary who poured perfumed oil on the Lord and...

Another interesting detail is that Jesus told his disciples not to leave Jerusalem so that they would receive the holy spirit from above... the detail is that he had to ask the Father for it, receive it from him, and then send it to his disciples, which he did when he anointed them in Jerusalem...

1 Pet. 1:3 Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, for according to his great mercy he gave us a new birth to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to an incorruptible and undefiled and unfading inheritance. It is reserved in the heavens for you...

God bless you :cool:

You are not my judge ... Don't tell me how I will be judge or based on what. Take care of yourself. Have a good one. :)

Do you think that these people that Jesus is talking about here were not convinced within themselves that they were born again? :Oh no: Luke 13:24 “Exert yourselves vigorously to get in through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will seek to get in but will not be able. 25 When the...

Yes. And some people don't even know who is the Father of those born again Christians ... Some think it has to do with Jesus, but it doesn't. As long as people don't know what really is to be born again, all they say is just imagination. Anyone can say I am born again. Words are just words.

I have the same God Jesus has, do you? John 20:17 Jesus said to her: “Stop clinging to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.’” Rev. 3:12 The one who conquers—I will make him...

Eze. 18:4 Look! All the souls—to me they belong. As the soul of the father so likewise the soul of the son—to me they belong. The soul that is sinning—it itself will die.
