   My favorite is peter, paul, james. They were boldness witness of God. They went through many trials but they always stay focus and continue without let up preaching to others. Great scarifices.
   
   Purpose. James’ purpose in writing seems to have been twofold: (1) to exhort his fellow believers to display faith and endurance amid their trials, and (2) to warn them against sins resulting in divine disapproval.
   
   During the course of his ministry, Paul exerted himself zealously, traveling thousands of miles on sea and land, establishing many congregations in Europe and Asia Minor. So he did not need letters of recommendation written with ink but could point to living letters, persons who had become believers through his efforts
   
   Peter was not just a man of words but also a man of action, displaying both initiative and courage, as well as a strong attachment for his Lord.

    Hmmm....if you go by the story then Adam, Eve and Noah, because if it weren't for them we wouldn't be here

    Tough one, but I'd have to say - in no particular order:
    
    Moses - because he had a close relationship with GOD than any other man, except Jesus.
    
    Job - because he got to reason with GOD
    
    Joseph (Mary's husband) - kind of an odd choice, I know, and you don't hear much about him.  However, he had to be a man of tremendous faith to take Mary as his wife under the circumstances and then raise Jesus as his own child and teach him his craft.  He's one of the people in the bible who is really shortchanged, in my opinion, with respect to having his story told.
    
    (And is I can have an honorable mention, I'd toss in Joseph, the son of Israel.  When his own brothers sold him into slaveryy and told his father he was dead, he had no idea that GOD allowed those events to occur so that he could become a great man, and the savior of his people, but that's exactly what happened.  Oddly enough, I also just included him in a hub I built on inspirational Bible passages.)
