yay me, when in the discussion of the proper (or improper) roles of pastors i was the first perm ban from justpreachers.com
silly me, i actually based my arguement off a literal exegesis of Ephesians and the five fold while others dropped terms like "apostolic covering" and basically put forth the idea that you pretty much cannot be saved without a pastor.
i think pastors are there to be counselors, friends, and teachers. my salvation and growth rests in Christ and the scriptures alone. The five fold ministry is there to grow and strengthen the church, it is not salvational.
You did kill their argument with scripture. Therefore, their only
recourse was to ban you.
Wow...
Is this sorta like the group (Pharisees, leaders, etc) in Acts 7 who heard Stephen's exposition of Scripture but they covered their ears and then killed him?

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
the actual cut and paste was deleted per the admin of this forum due to their internal rules about c/p from other forums for those that can't see it since someone will say "where is it"
but it was the admin from justpreachers Jim Renfro that said that.. blows your mind eh?
