Oops!! Ping to #41.

Of course, #41 raises the side issue of just what sort of Elected Authority the bishop James enjoyed over the other Apostles. I suspect that a Presbyterian would read Acts 15 as a Presbyterian Synod, while a Baptist might counter that it is quite obviously a Baptist Convention... minus the egg salad.

I'd already read and enjoyed your #41.

And it ain't a Baptist Convention without the egg salad and the potluck.

Did you know the Last Supper was something of a potluck?

Oliver Cromwell bump! ;^)
