It wasn’t until after His death and resurrection that they truly believed. What kind of transition would a person have to make in his mental framework to conclude that his older brother is the Creator of the universe? The transition was so huge that his brothers almost didn’t make it. Jesus, in His mercy, helped them by appearing personally after His resurrection to the half-brother who was closest in age to Him (see 1 Corinthians 15:7). Guess who wrote these words: “For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.” Jesus’ brother! James was Jesus’ younger brother (the verse above is from James 3:16). I can hear James saying, “Guys, envy almost ate me alive! Envy was such a huge issue in my heart, it almost cost me my salvation.” James was able to address the topic of envy from the authority of personal experience.”",

James nodded to Reggie. \"Appreciate it, m'dear. My feet wouldn't reach.\" To which she blushed that her kick had been noticed. And Nicholas, still wincing, managed a scowl,which turned out rather comical looking, considering the two expressions didn't mix all that well. \"Is Uncle Toony still among the living?\" Amy asked, probably because neither James nor his brother had returned back downstairs last night. \"Give me a few more days to figure that out,puss, 'cause I bloody well ain't sure just now,\" Anthony said as he came slowly into the room,an arm tucked to his side as if he were protecting some broken ribs. A melodramatic groan escaped as he took the seat across from his brother. James rolled his eyes hearing it. \"Give over,you ass,\" he sneered. \"Your ife ain't here to witness your theatrics.\" \"She's not?\" Anthony glanced down the table, then made a moue and sat back in his chair-minus groaning this time. However, he did complain to James, \"You did break my ribs,you know.\" \"Devil I did, though I'll admit I considered it. And by the by, the option is still open.\" Anthony glared at him. \"We're too bloody old to be beating on each other.\" \"Speak for yourself, old man. One is never too old for a spot of exercise.\" \"Ah,so that's what we were doing?\" Anthony shot back dryly, as he gently fingered his own black eye. \"Exercising, was it?\" James raised a brow. \"And that's not what you do weekly at Knighton's Hall? But I understand your confusion in the matter, since you're used to doling out the damage, rather than receiving any. Tends to give one a skewed perspective. Glad to have cleared that up for you.\" It was at that point that Jason walked in, took one look at his two younger brothers' battered faces, and remarked, \"Good God, and at this time of the year,no less? I'll see you both in my study.”",
