[Mark17]

Bob, I have a friend, who was born and raised in Greece. He speaks 7 languages. I asked him to look at the Greek, where the names of Jesus' brothers were given. He told me, the Greek words indicate they were not cousins, but children of the same mother and father, Mary and Joseph.
On the other hand, I don't think it really matters much. I just want to know what the plan of salvation is. It doesn't matter much, what people may have right or wrong, if they end up in a burning Hell.

Or in Heaven in full.

Well if it doesn't matter much then you and Campion just concede that it was His brothers and sisters mentioned there. Campion says give me names. I gave him names. He says don't try to bind believers to something not contained in the clear words of Scripture. So I give him the clear words of scripture. The words favor my viewpoint. Now you have a friend who says they were cousins and not brothers and sisters. I am assuming your friend is Catholic and therefore has a bias. The Bible clearly states they were identifying Jesus by saying I know His father the carpenter, I know His mother Mary and I know His siblings. This is specific. Not addressing a congregation as someone has suggested. The Bible is plain and clear. Believe it or not.

[Salvation]

A sin (judgment) against the Blessed Virgin Mary and thus a sin against the Holy Spirit.
