To my understanding, they do not use scripture. I've never heard a scripture used when I've heard this mindset discussed. Of course, I could be wrong. I'm still at least semi-acquainted with a young preacher in this church, so I might can get some information from him.
As I've heard it before, it is usually mentioned as a principle or way of church etiquette. Being in the South, these Apostolics present it as being in bad manner to leave a ministry where you received the Holy Ghost. They relay it is out of order to the ministry where said individual was filled, but yet it is basically a control thing and gives the body means to outcast those that leave their assembly for another.
