Contendah, my Friend,
Must be because it is Monday that your thinking is so muddled. First, you bring up the issue of Paul addressing folks as "brethren" when he addresses the local church fellowship.
When I address that issue, you switch gears, or whatever, and begin to sob, "Bill, It is transparently obvious that you have not at all addressed the issues I raised concerning your OSAS perspectives"
My Friend, make up your mind which issue you want to address -- and we will discuss that issue. But, I am sorry, I cannot see through your Herbert W. Armstrong muddled mind to know that when you write about Paul and "brethren" -- somewhere back in your mind you were really thinking about the issue of "eternal security."
So, when you clear your thinking so that we know which page you are on -- we can continue.
Bless your heart!
Bill
