Isn't saying that sinners should not read the epistles the same as saying that sinners should ignore any and all teaching in a church unless the service was designated "for sinners only"? Have you ever heard a pastor or evangelist addressing a congregation and make reference in the sermon or teaching that mention how folks get saved?

Sam, lets be honest here. Has anyone
ever, ever said that sinners should not read the epistles?
Why would you even distort my argument by implying that? I know of no Pentecostal
ever who has ever said or implied any such thing.
There is a big distinction between saying:
the epistles were
not addressed to sinners, but to saints...
versus saying
...sinners are not supposed to read the epistles.
Surely you understand that.
