A former poster contacted me

[houston]

A former poster reached out to me on Facebook. Catching up, I stated that I went back to the UPCI.

I guess I missed this before he left, or I forgot.
“I made it ABUNDANTLY CLEAR BEFORE I LEFT AFF THAT THE APOSTOLICS WERE IN FALSE DOCTRINE.“

I was warned not to become legalistic. It was stated that the Holy Ghost is a promise, not a command.

Doc, you want to go that route? With me? Mmkay.

This poster now attends a Bethel church. A plant out of Redding, CA. I asked if there are manifestations in his church like the ones that take place in Redding. He affirmed.

After mentioning the link with NAR and Todd Bentley and his adultery wife... my character came through when I stated, “You’re warning me about rules... you’re following reprobates.”

That ended the conversation. :lol

He made it abundantly clear before he left AFF that he was disgruntled.

One thing I have to say about this guy is that at least he left and didn't hang around continuing to make his opinions abundantly clear. :thumbsup

You know who he is? I didn’t realize he did that, or maybe I forgot.
His unraveling took years... documented here on and at AFF. I guess he finally wholely and completely embraced and sought out error.
When you state that only a few apostolics may be saved but you can’t discern that your church is operating through a counterfeit and deceiving spirit, honestly, I don’t even know how to finish that statement.

God help us all.

I dont know the poster you're referring to, but I do have a friend. He used to be a neighboring pastor. A great preacher. Was preaching camps and conferences fairly often. Had a revival church. Was a soul winner.... Ended up backing up on every "standard" he ever preached. Closed the church doors and moved to California. Now this week he posted on FB that nothing matters. Doesnt matter how you baptize. Doesn't matter how you live. Just be sincere, believe on Jesus. All denominations are right as long as they love Jesus.....

Makes me sad. I vividly remember he preached a ministers conference service. In the middle of his.message, he turned to the group of elders sitting on the platform and said something along the lines of "you're looking at a young preacher that will never change this message"...

It is just the human experience, plain and simple. People leave the reservation and go native all the time. Yet, it is 'abundantly clear" that they just aren't willing to leave, but they go wee wee wee all the way home. Self justification, about why they are on the right path, and why we are not. people leave marriages, relationships, children, religions, jobs, homes, making the same arguments. Why is the ex spouse always painted to be the bad guy? You just don't hear a sad story, but sometimes you get a horror show. Leaving a job, all sorts of reasons, some good, some not, some odd. relationships which lasted years, end over the stupidest things, but people make some great arguments to why they were right and the others wrong.

If the forum has taught us anything, it should teach us this, that people are nuts. Certifiable, and thoroughly out of their minds. Religion is like LSD, where you can't get off the trip. We just need to surround ourselves with good people who love God and are not afraid to tell us that we are wrong. My mother use to say this "your friends will never tell you the truth, but I'll tell you the truth." meaning your friends tip toe through the land minds of relationships to not offend. While your parents want much more for you. Therefore they will go out of their way to stop you from going off in the wrong direction ( or should anyway) That is what a good church family should do, with its elders. Everyone helping each other reach a higher level without the devil. Internet forums have no accountability, and if someone is sinking fast, or getting into the surf engine to hell, the forum may send them off the deep end sooner. Or they could possibly get turned around. Which isn't an everyday occurrence. But people who are trusted and faithful brethren who are in close reachable proximity to us who are ready to tell us how the cow ate the cabbage. Make the greatest difference to us and to our family.

I have no idea who you are talking about nor am I familiar with any of the situations to which you are refer. You make some excellent points that I wholeheartedly agree with.

Forgive me for being shallow, but I was wondering how one could go OFF the reservation to go Native? Seems like if one was to go Native, they'd go ONTO the reservation. But there I go again, being quirky.
