9. HISFAMILY
KNOWSHIM

10. 1. He didn’t need to.

11. 2. There’s a lot of guys named
James in the New Testament.

12. 3. To say he was Jesus’ brother could
give the impression that he was proud,
and here he wants to follow in his
brother’s example of humility.

13. 3POSITIONSON
JAMES’
RELATIONSHIP
TOJESUS

14. 1. They were step-brothers.

15. 2. They were cousins.

16. 3. They were half-brothers.

17. JAMES
DISBELIEVED
JESUS

18. Mark 3:21
When his family heard about this,
they went to take charge of him, for
they said, "He is out of his mind."

19. Mark 3:31-32
31Then His mother and His brothers
arrived, and standing outside they
sent word to Him and called
Him. 32A crowd was sitting around
Him, and they said to Him, “Behold,
Your mother and Your brothers are
outside looking for You.”

20. JAMES
DOUBTED
JESUS

21. Mark 6:3-4
3“Is not this the carpenter, the son
of Mary, and brother of James and
Joses and Judas and Simon? Are not
His sisters here with us?” And they
took offense at Him. 4Jesus said to
them, “A prophet is not without
honor except in his hometown and
among his own relatives and in
his own household.”

24. The only thing that accounts for
that kind of radical transformation
in thinking and commitment is the
resurrection of Jesus from

29. Acts 15:12-21
12 The whole assembly became
silent as they listened to Barnabas
and Paul telling about the signs and
wonders God had done among the
Gentiles through them. 13 When
they finished, James spoke up.
“Brothers,” he said, “listen to me.

30. Acts 15:12-21
14 Simon has described to us how
God first intervened to choose a
people for his name from the
Gentiles. 15 The words of the
prophets are in agreement with
this, as it is written:

31. Acts 15:12-21
16 “‘After this I will return and
rebuild David’s fallen tent. Its ruins
I will rebuild, and I will restore it,
17 that the rest of mankind may
seek the Lord, even all the Gentiles
who bear my name, says the Lord,
who does these things’— 18things
known from long ago.

32. Acts 15:12-21
19 “It is my judgment, therefore,
that we should not make it difficult
for the Gentiles who are turning to
God. 20 Instead we should write to
them, telling them to abstain from
food polluted by idols, from sexual
immorality, from the meat of
strangled animals and from blood.

33. Acts 15:12-21
21 For the law of Moses has been
preached in every city from the
earliest times and is read in the
synagogues on every Sabbath.”

39. 3. Camel Knees.

40. It’s all about Jesus.

42. “We were lucky enough to grow up in an
environment where there was always
much encouragement to children to
pursue intellectual interests, to investigate
whatever aroused curiosity.”
— Orville Wright

44. “What one man can do himself directly is
but little. If however he can stir up ten
others to take up the task he has
accomplished much.”
—Wilbur Wright

45. There was no fame, there was no glory, there was no
fortune. There was death, and they endured it
because they no longer feared death because they’d
seen their God-brother conquer it.

46. Mark 3:35
“For whoever does the will of God, he,”
Jesus says, “is my brother and sister and
mother.”

47. Whoever does the will Of
God has Jesus for a
Brother.
