THADDAEUS
APOSTLE • JUDAS, NOT ISCARIOT
“The disciple who asked how Jesus shows Himself to those who love Him.”
MEET THADDAEUS
Thaddaeus — also called Judas son of James, carefully noted as 'not Iscariot' — asked one recorded question at the last supper, and Jesus' answer is a promise for every believer.
THE STORY
'Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?' Jesus answered: 'If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.' Because Thaddaeus asked, we know: God makes His home with those who love Jesus.
