Where Are the Remains of the 12 Apostles?

 An interesting video, detailing the resting place of all the Apostles.

You might be curious about where are the remains of the 12 Apostles of Christ now. The remains of all apostles (except Judas Iscariot) were kept and venerated by the early Christians. The only Church that preserved their remains from early Christianity until now is the Catholic Church. The video will tell you how did the apostles die and where are their remains kept. We listed them according to their death in ascending order👇 1. St. JAMES the Greater (45 AD) - St. James Cathedral in Compostela, Spain 2. St. PHILIP (54 AD) - Church of the Dodici in Rome, Italy 3. St. MATTHEW (60 AD) - St. Matthew Cathedral in Messina, Italy 4. St. JAMES the Lesser (63 AD) - Holy Apostles Basilica in Rome, Italy 5. St. PETER (64 AD) - St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City 6. St. THOMAS (70 AD) - St. Thomas Cathedral in Mylapore, India 7. St. BARTHOLOMEW (70 AD) - St. Bartholomew Church in Rome, Italy 8. St. ANDREW (70 AD) - Cathedral of Amalfi in Amalfi, Italy 9. St. JUDE Thaddeus (72 AD) - St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City 10. St. SIMON the Zealot (74 AD) - stabbed with a sword - St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City 11. St. JOHN (95 AD) - St. John Basilica in Ephesus, Turkey 12. St. MATHIAS (70 AD) - St. Mathias Abbey in Trier, Germany (St. Mathias was the replacement of Judas Iscariot who committed suicide after betraying Christ)

13. St. Paul - he was beheaded in Rome. His remains is buried in St. Paul's Church located in Rome, Italy. (Paul was not part of the original 12 apostles who were personally selected by Christ. He was a convert to Christianity and considered as the Apostles to the Gentiles.)

Please note that all of the locations where the remains of apostles are being kept are in a Catholic church. There are none of the remains of the apostles that is buried in any protestant church. It only proved that from the very beginning of Christianity, it was really the Catholic Church who are the original Christians who followed the teachings of Christ and his apostles.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
