I didn’t say brothers; I said relatives.

Still applies. James is the brother of Christ. Not a relative or cousin.

Well, SCRIPTURE says Jesus had brothers.

And it uses the word that means *brothers*.

Again, they weren't stupid. They knew the difference and the Holy Spirit used the Greek word for *brother* and *sister* for a reason.

If He meant *relative* there was a perfectly good word for Him to use instead.
