Is AFF the "Apostate Forum" ???

I receieved word the other day that AFF was being referred to as the "APOSTATE FRIENDS FORUM". I wont say who was calling us that or what format it was coming from.

If you are still a true Apostolic,shouldn't you be offended by ministers painting you as such just because there are some here who don't believe in strict Standards? NOt everyone AFF has gone "Charismatic".

There is so much food for thought that maybe we should call this the "Apple Fritters Forum".

Personally anyone that sounds like Caston Smith in my book is void of real faith in Christ...they genuinely don't have a clue what it means to be a Christian and to have Agape.

The weapons of their warfare are carnal

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.

It doesn't bother me any more than being called a dinosaur or a Pharisee.

Which is to say, not at all, because I know the truth about myself . . . . I may have one or two reservations about the REST OF YOU ALL . . . .

Goodness, poor old Keith got called a "Corinthian."

I say, if you're going to insult me, call me something that doesn't require me to read an entire book before I understand the insult.

I thought they were talking about the AFF ultra-conservatives.
