The book of Galations was written after Paul’s second visit to Jerusalem during the meeting at the Jerusalem Church over the mission to the Gentiles( Gal 2:1 Act 15:1-4). James, the Lord’s brother was the Pastor at the time. James, the Lord’s cousin, the previous Pastor of the Church, had been martyred sometime before (Act 12:2).

When Paul is writing the Galation letter he is referring to James by his then title.

No. It specifically states that Paul saw James the Apostle.

Nowhere in scripture does it state that another election took place where another man named James replaced James the Apostle. Where in scripture can I find this election?
