Who Was The First Apostle To Die?
That's the question. No googling now.
Heard this on the radio the other day.
Oh, and it's not a trick question.

James the Greater, the brother of John. The sons on thunder as Our Lords affectionately called them. He suffered martyrdom around the year 44 A.D when King Herrod Agrippa had him put to death by the sword. See Acts chapter 12.

Maybe it was Judas, he died before Peter, was he an apostle though?

Re: Who Was The First Apostle To Die?
It was Stephen.. When they stoned him it almost caused the second coming of Christ, for, the bible states Stephen saw jesus standing, when in fact the bible states He is seated in Heaven.

well i dont agree with this.
cause when judas died he was a disciple, they didnt become apostles until matthew 28, when Jesus sent them out to preach to the world
the word apostle by definition means one who is sent forth as a messenger, in contrast to a disciple who is a "student" that learns from a "teacher"..
though he was numbered as part of the 12 he never was a apostle, at the time he was a disciple, and a crooked one.
so the correct answer would be james
and matthais was the 12, Paul was the 13th

Scripture disagrees with you....
Mat 10:2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
