It only takes a person a glance at a few stomachs to see why we are laking in the power realm.

Bro. To some of this I agree. But I would not lump all oneness folks together. Because that would include you and I. And I know I'm not like those other sinner, christian wanna bees. You can tell by looking at my trim and rippled stomach.

Many ALJC churches that I know make the weak UPC churches look strong.

Hmmm, maybe if we would remember that despite the organization names, we are all Apostolics, maybe we could reach the world and make disciples of every nation. I have been to PAW, ALJC, and UPCI churches, and I have found that when they preach Acts 2:38 and the Gospel that would lead a soul to Acts 2:38, then that church is Apostolic, regardless of the station over the door.

If they allow TV, so what? If they do not, so what? One says CSI is acceptable, and the other says Discovery Channel is not? What is the big deal anymore. Instead of wondering about TV, how about we cut it off for a few hours a week, and go win souls instead.

I like the idea, but I just don't see it happening.... Some are going to push for TV and some are going to fight against it....What is sad is that what goes on withthe leaders, is what the saints seem to be getting..MEaning, or preacher is soo not for tv that, now, not only do we not have tv, but we can't watch any type of moving picture....some people i know were even told that they had to get rid of their lil movie clips of their own children....... Not because it's sin, but some people are going to push their point over the edge....as with any particular "standard".

You are right, we need to go win souls...with or without tv, people are lost and we need to get on our face before God and tarry before the Lord...Push the plate and seek God's face...then God will lead us to the hungry, dying, sick, confused, rejected, depressed, and hopeless..................

Being Apostolic is more that just Acts 2:38
