Re: Suggestion

Y'all want to turn this into a lib verses con thing and I am NOT going to let you.
Some subjects defended on this forum:
All shades of Calvinism
Universalism
Faith Only
Silent Baptism
the One necessity of speaking in tongues
sprinkling as baptism
that's just for a start off the top of my head.

Do you go to an Apostolic church that baptizes by immersion in Jesus Name & does your church preach & practice recieving the HGB evidenced by sepaking in tongues?

Re: Suggestion

I do believe this place has changed.

The coversations are stale.

That, and the constant jabs at Christianity, authority, submission and Pentecostalism get very, very old.

AFF has turned into an instant messaging tool where people talk about silly, inconsequential, feminine things instead of the religious site it was intended to be.

The level of intelligent discourse has descended into the abyss.

All of this is not to say I don't enjoy a good laugh.

But when the entire premise of the forum is utter idiocy, and every substantial thread ends in either extramarital flirting and/or atheistic and/or agnostic posters tearing down Christianity as a whole, I think the original purpose of this forum is perverted.

I love the owners and admin here, but the site is failing.

That's why I rarely post.

And friends, I am nowhere close to an ultracon.

Hmmm. The uncloistered and cloistered, eh?

How about the Egyptians and Hebrews. Or the faith non-contending and contending.

You have your analogy.

Yes, the church I go to baptizes by immersion in Jesus name and teaches a believer will speak in other tongues when they receive the Holy Spirit.

Again this man has spoken the truth. This is NOT a lib verses con thing it is a Apostolic or not thing?

Re: Suggestion

I agree there seems to be a lot of departure from apostolic doctrine. I am apostolic all the way!

We are currently making a video series for online viewing of LT Smith's "Rightly Dividing The Word" 2-day bible study which lays out apostolic doctrine in detail from the scriptures. Will tell you when it is out.
