I ask you to accept me

I was once Apostolic, as some of you know.
Now I am not, haven't been in awhile.
I didn't backslide into lesser forms of Christianity,
I went full on pagan, I honor the old gods and goddesses.
I will never proselytize, but I would like to take part.
With your permission, else I won't post again

Re: I ask you to accept me

hmm, funny that you would show up now...from Pent to Pagan? wow. I am one of the local heretics, and they put up with me (i think most people here just have me on 'ignore' ), but you have, in a sense, turned your back on God, One God...but then, Oneness types would say the same about Trinnies, prolly

well, ntmy--i'm half-convinced that you are a figment, sent by God to test my acceptance level, and you won't be here in the 'morning' anyway! I think we have a (professed) pagan here already, anyway. Peace to you.

JA - I knew you had left and wondered about you. As for me I have to believe that a pagan JA may still have more common sense than some of these here who call themselves Apostolic! Welcome back!

Re: I ask you to accept me

Hmm. I remember you from way back. I'm trying to remember....were you an admin? A pastor??

Hey I left too, nine years ago now. I am a non-church goer except I have been fiddling around going here and there. I would like to be part of a church body but not sure if I will make it or not.

If I'm allowed here, I'm going to guess you will be too.

Welcome!

Re: I ask you to accept me

This is a widely varied arena of Apostolics, former Apostolics, and those who fall somewhere outside that realm - glad to have you on board
