Are You Really Apostolic?
 
Do you talk in tongues?
Have you been baptized in the name of Jesus?

Is your home television-free?
Do you dress according to your gender?

Do you attend church faithfully?
Do you tithe to your local church?

Do you run the aisles?
Do you dance in church?

Do you witness?

Do you believe the doctrine of the Trinity is damnable?

Running the aisles and dancing in church makes you Apostolic?

Some of your follow-up questions don't relate to your original question. :D

I answered no to lots of these.

Charnock 11-02-2010 09:30 PM

Re: Are You Really Apostolic?
 
You're not Apostolic if you answer no.

Do you dress according to your gender? •Just about everyone does.

Do you attend church faithfully? •Probably more than you, yes.
Do you tithe to your local church? •No, but I give, usually much more than 10%. This year, about 60%.

Do you run the aisles? •I wouldn't dare.
Do you dance in church? •We have choreographed dancing, yes.

If you believe the answers to these questions determines if one is apostolic, then you are not apostolic.

I think Char is struggling with AFF - he can't stay away, so he's been working on trying to get banned. That would explain the bizzare behavior.

Bro, I would never, ever make fun of your son. I had no idea he was in a wheelchair before your post.

My humor was intended to include, not to be mean.

My apologies.

AFF is truly addictive. I've tried to quit, and I keep coming back for more abuse, embarrassing myself with each new post. I think that's a hidden purpose of this place, to bring out the ugly side of some people. It definitely has that effect on me. It is easy to be rotten when all you are looking at is your computer monitor and not the person you are offending face-to-face.

Jack Shephard 11-02-2010 09:55 PM

Re: Are You Really Apostolic?
 
Like I said I answered no to some of those and yet I consider myself a Christian that goes to an Apostolic Church. I also do not have uncut hair.

After watching Tim Lincecum pitch last night, I'm considering having uncut hair.

I think it can bring out the worst and the best. Humanity being what it is.

I am growing my hair as an homage to "The Freak", Bono and Dave Grohl.

So, you named names?
You posted the names of the people who were/are giving the homosexual lifestyle a pass?
Where...I want to read it.

NOW throws out a comment designed to spark an insult from someone, intended or otherwise than gets his knickers in a knot when he gets the result he was looking for.

There are some in your list that the apostles never put forth that I have seen.

Talking in tongues and Jesus' name baptism are the only two qualities I see necessary to be by definition an apostolic.

Is your home television-free?oh yes, the "Apostle's Doctrine" :ursofunny
Do you dress according to your gender?

Do you attend church faithfully? I faithful gather with other believers
Do you tithe to your local church? Yes, but not as law, nor do I believe in tithing in anything more than a practice of giving. It's an expression of Grace...Graciousness.

Do you run the aisles? Uh... not really.
Do you dance in church? If our church is hosting a concert or special event. Otherwise, I bust a partial jig only on occasion.

Do you witness? Do I disciple? Do I share the Gospel? Do I reflect God's love to others? I hope so... I need to do better here.


There you are!
