This is Part 2 to the sermon from last Lord's Day, but before moving to the last point in Paul's historical treatment of his post-conversion experience and how no man called him to be an apostle (though Jesus did) and no man taught him the gospel he preached (though Jesus did), I wanted to address who Paul met with in his visit to Jerusalem: Peter and James, the Lord's brother (Galatians 1:19 ). We know who Peter was (and comments were made about Paul's visit with Peter), but who was James, who is called "the Lord's brother"? Did Jesus have a brother through Mary (a half-brother)? The answer to this question does not necessarily determine whether one is orthodox or not or even reformed or not (many of the Reformers believed this James was not a brother of Jesus through Mary, but either a step-brother through Joseph in a previous marriage or a cousin of Jesus). And yet, I do want to share my thoughts because it may lead (not necessarily lead, but possibly lead) to some views of Mary that are unwarranted/unbiblical.
