CHOOSE ONE: Christian, Apostolic, Pentecostal or Other
 
If you had to choose one word to describe you and your faith which one would it be .... WHY?

That's a tough one! If I could only use ONE word, I suppose that I would use Christian. I want to be that above all else. I have known many Pentecostals and Apostolics who were NOT Christians. (fortunately, most of them have been Christians, though)

Other Apostolic Pentecostals should be Christians too.

All of the above.

I once had a man asked what religion I was.

I said "I'm a Christian".

"NO YOU ARE NOT", he replied. "You are a Pentecostal".








I thought about that for quite a while. lol

I would like to be considered a Christian above all other labels. To the religious world I would prefer to be called a Pentecostal because it implies an experience I find personally and biblically relevant.


It is no secret I have never cared for the term Apostolic. The twenty-first century church is not Apostolic by most means of measurement. To me, the only reason why Oneness Pentecostals picked up the term "Apostolic" was so they would not be lumped in with trinitarian Pentecostals.

Of course, we still love to be included in all of the worldwide "Pentecostal" growth statistics.
