Cost the Apostles" is something I clipped out



             a number of years ago, and we also did a



             series  not  too  long  ago  on  the  twelve



             apostles,  and  we  tried  to  look  into  what



             actually happened to them.  We have some



             Scripture but we also have tradition, as well,



             that  speaks  of  what  happened  to  the



             apostles.  I'll just read this to you:




                    “You've  not  resisted  unto  blood  striving



                    against  sin  (Hebrews  12:4).  Easygoing


                    Christians  today  who  stand  for  and



                    appreciate  the  beneficial  influences  of  the


                    church but are bored to death in a prayer


                    meeting and find it perfect martyrdom to sit



                    through a preaching service will do well to


                    read the following record and see how times



                    have changed.”
