This is will be a "one time only" study more then likely, so I need to share the plan of salvation (no time to "build" up to it).

Thanks for any input.
I think we make a huge mistake in going right to Acts 2:38 and tongues. IF the person is genuinely a sinner, they need to realize they are a sinner, that they are separated from the life of God and that they NEED to be saved and that salvation is only in Jesus Christ.

Once that foundation is laid teach them repentance, water baptism and the Pentecost experience

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:

  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
