Martyrdom of Ya’akov HaTsadeek #75
Posted by TsiyonJun 8
James the Just, brother of Messiah, suffered martyrdom about the year 63 CE. According to Josephus, the first century Jewish historian, it was widely believed that the destruction of Jerusalem occurred because of the murder of James the Just! In fact, it is claimed in the historical documents that the murder of James the Just was foretold by the prophet Isaiah and was fulfilled in the demise of the Jewish system in 70 CE at the hands of the Romans. It is remarkable that it was not only Messianic Jews that believed this regarding James the Just. Rather, this belief was widely held generally by all Jews of that era. What was so unique about the martyrdom of Ya’akov HaTsadeek a/k/a James the Just that the Jews would believe the destruction of their Temple, Holy City, and entire Jewish system was due to their treatment of James? In this episode we will consider the historical report of the martyrdom of James the Just. As we consider this report you will be amazed, you will be informed and you will be inspired by the story of this remarkable man of God. His story has a lot more to do with your life today than you could possibly imagine. You need to hear this program!

Greetings to all.Well here it is,the answer to my question from last hour. I kinda thought it was coming.The question,How did everyone else see James and his believe in his Brother as Messiah. And this hour winds up playing out the rest of the story as Paul Harvey used to say.Taking a walk through the pages of history to revisit these events,makes you wonder how they are NOT discussed in the New Covenant Church system.We talk about Paul and his Journey’s into the Gentile Areas but what about Jerusalem?? Well now I certainly know “part” of the rest of the story.And as I told our church secretary the other day.The actual history blows away the “Stories” we tell in the church. For me this is all about coming out of Babylon.We have the opportunity now to get the story straight.To put the pieces back in place so we can truly learn from the past,what to expect in the future. There is so much work to be done and I thank G_D for shows like this that help isolate where some of the material is that we need. We still all need to do our own homework as well ,but many have been commissioned, I feel to help other believers with what they have learned. Weather it is the true deception of the “Peace Sign” worn today ,or the history from 1st Century Jerusalem we have a lot of work to do .Or should I say a lot of deception to cut away that has been fed to us for 2000 years.G_D is going to help his believers get the story straight ,he will lift up his remnant that lifts him up alone as their G_D.
Praise Yahweh
Hail King Y’shua
Blessings to all,
Fred

The testimony of this man is quite aweinspiring. The fact that he was a decendent of King David and the rightful heir to the throne, and exemplifies the character and purpose of righteous rulers, is truly astounding. I am always moved by the historical accounts of those martyrs who died for the witness of Yahshua.
The Intecessor of Israel. To be known as someone who devoted his life to praying for the people is an example for how all leaders should be. Oh that we would have such righteous leaders today.
Another point is the amazing power of intecession and how earnest prayers can hold back the judgment of a nation. As it is written, The effective fervent prayers of a righteous man availeth much…
The longsuffering of Yahweh towards others. He takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked. As always, He gives a time for the day of judgment of the wicked; perchance they would repent and be saved. Even though judgment may tarry, it will surely come to pass. As it did in this generation, so will it be in ours.
