Best Answer

Actually there was more than one.

Two of the apostles, James and his brother John are Jesus first cousins. There is also another apostle named James, who was the son of Alphaeus, who was probably the brother of Joseph, Jesus adoptive father. This would make this second James also Jesus cousin. So there were possibly three postles who were Jesus cousins, both apostles named James, and the apostle John.

Another cousin of Jesus was John the Baptist, who began preaching six months before Jesus began preaching. In this way, he prepared the people to receive Jesus. John the baptist was actually Jesus' second cousin.John 1:6-8, 15-28;Mark 3:13-19; Luke 6:12-16

How old was John when he became a Disciple?

The disciple John is not called John the evangelist in the Bible. He is not to be confused with John the Baptist, who was not a disciple, but was a cousin of Jesus. John (the evangelist) wrote the books of John, 1 John, 2 John, 3 John, and Revelation. He referred to himself as "the beloved disciple" in his book John. Jesus found John and his brother James as they were fishing, and called them both to follow him. Matthew 4:21-22 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.
