That comment was meant for you. You were coming at him with both guns blazing. Why are you so combative? I doubt your momma taught you to be that disrespectful. Do you remember MissBrat pointing out your bad manners? I'd do it but her instruction didn't seem to take! So why should I waste my time.
Maybe if you reread what Coonskinner wrote:
Quote:
Luk 15:31 And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
He had an attitude problem working, but he wasn't anything resembling "lost."
Beating up on the elder brother is one of the favorite pastimes of the Pharisee hunters, but the facts are plain in the Scripture--everything the Father had was his. He was "ever" with the Father.
He needed a lesson in compassion for sure, but he was far from lost.

He admits the elder son has an attitude problem but that he is not lost which is a very fair reading of the verse.
