Really. I see no mention of bishop, priest, pastor, abbot cleric, etc., etc. But I’m supposing you’re telling me that these words are *understood* when “preacher” or “apostle” or “teacher” is used. Guess you’re telling me, too, that maybe “brother” means something other than full sibling because the Bible tends to use words figuratively, loosely, indeterminately.
