<div style='background-color:'><P>Phil,</P>
<P>I said:
<TABLE>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD><TT>The term "The Saints Gathered to the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ," is a Title, Name or designation. (Otherwise why not just say, "a few people meeting together to enjoy the things of the Lord?") The phrase won't be found in scripture either. <BR></TT></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><TT><BR>You said:<BR><BR>Wrong. Saint's gathered (or gathering) in the Name of the Lord is what we do, not so much what we are. <BR>We are saints (but not to the exclusion of the rest) and gathered (gathering) is what we do. <BR></TT><BR><BR>If you don't think this term is exclusionary I have some swamp land in Florida I would love to sell you!</P>
<P>For example, The Saints Gathered to the Name of the Lord Jesus in Des Moines, when applied to ONE group that meets in ONE building EXCLUDES all the other believers in Des Moines!!!</P>
