What I have learned from AFF
 
IF someone is not a One God, Jesus Name Baptisim, HOly Ghost filled with evidence of speaking in Tongues, living a seperated life of consecration to God christian... they can still be saved.

Trinitarians can remain trinitarians and still go to Heaven.

Tounges is not the intial sign of the Holy Ghost

Baptisim isn't as important to be Jesus name only.

Jesus may not be God, possibly a second...

Appearance doesn't matter to God

Its not a sin for women to:
Cut their hair
Wear Pants
Jewelry
Make-Up

did I miss anything?


An yet they still insist they are Apostolic. :nah

You left off iron sharpens iron.

Actually, you left off a LOT that has been thrown out there in the past, but that's okay.

I've NEVER read that Jesus might not be God - did you throw that one in there to see if we're reading your post?

You learned that people won't just accept cliches and rhetoric as gospel, they want scriptures to back it up. :)

(imagine that)

I haven't been hear a long time, so I am just putting out what I have seen so far..

and the Oneness thread awhile back is where I drew my conclusions that some are not sure Jesus was fully God.

What you have found is that these things are discussed.

There are people on both sides of the fence here or there would be no need to discuss it.

It is, apparently, unapostolic to even allow discussion of these things in many people's minds.

Many apostolics are accustomed to an atmosphere of perpetual and mutual admiration.

I'm sure you've missed plenty on this huge generalization. There are various perspectives on many of these issues. How long have you been posting now? 3 days? 4 days?

What individual (please name them) said they weren't sure Jesus was fully God? Me thinks you are wrong on that point.

In fact, you are hard-pressed to find too many in Christendom that don't believe Jesus was fully God.

And to be accurate, since I suspect no one said that or doubted His divinity, it would also be presumptious to classify AFF in general for the opinion of a one (and possibly a dramatic minority).

What you didn't include in your learnings are these type of people:
Repeat Sunday School rhetoric
When in doubt, use the "obey your pastor" card
Never question doctrine
In debate, avoid scriptural discussions, just be a dump truck of scriptures you think are owned by your position.
Those that view salvation has been a huge hurdle, and we will be lucky if we just barely make it
Those that see their own works as part of their salvation, ignorantly using James' Faith w/out Works sermon.
Those that are quick to label people, but slow to enter true discourse with people.
Those who realize they don't know how to biblically defend their positions, and the usual cycle is: attack everyone else, label them, anger, consideration, study, more study, concession of points, and in the end hopefully a robust biblical world view.

Double Amen

Baptisim isn't as important to be Jesus name only.

Huh? Not sure I understand.

Jesus may not be God, possibly a second...

I disagree with you. I can't believe that you now think Jesus may not be God. Admin? Throw him off!!

Appearance doesn't matter to God

Now you're back to preachin'!!!

Its not a sin for women to:
Cut their hair
Wear Pants
Jewelry
Make-Up

Amen!! Certainly not in the bible, it isn't!

A few things, maybe, but you're doing well!!

An yet they still insist they are Apostolic. :nah
