Mark 3:16-17
There are many people who have read this Sons of Thunder “nickname” and have come to the conclusion that this meant that James and John were angry and judgmental men.
But when Jesus renamed him Peter, He wasn’t looking at who Peter was. He was making a declaration of what Peter was going to be.
It seems the times thunder was mentioned in Scripture, it was a display of the power of God.
But apparently (if I’m right) during that 3 years James became a Voice for God; a man who declared the power of God.
But in spite of the fact that God believes in them, many Christians don’t. They don’t believe in themselves.
Too many Christians settle for less because they don’t think they’re worth that much.
