Bro. and sisters, after a 3 or so week silence due to christmas break. I am
back.  I always hate to see this particular subject divide our fellowships.  I
have always felt that it doesn't matter what the name of the church is, but what
matters is what is preached over the pulpit.  Is itthe truth or not.  that is
the question.  the last count I had of oneness organizations was about 150 in
the united states alone.  we just end up fussing over minor things that alot of
the times were nothing to begin with.  Since it is time for class, I will
discuss this later.  I am just glad to be back on.
