THE TWELVE STEPS AND THE NEW MAN IN CHRIST ...my Christian understanding is rattled every time I hear a well meaning brother say, "Hi. My name is Harry, and I'm an alcoholic."

THE GANG OF JESUS
Our leader used the word “ecclesia” for “gathering, fellowship, church.” This was not a religious term. In Acts 19:32 and 41 the riotous, anti-Christian, political gathering is called “church” or “ecclesia.” I propose that a more understandable and accurate translation or interpretation of the word “ecclesia/church” for today is “gang.”
