Need a favor: PLEASE DEFINE WHAT IT MEANS TO BE APOSTOLIC

I thought that was the reason we had to invent the name, "Oneness" as an adjective to go in front of Apostolic and Pentecostal...

No we invented Oneness to go in front of Pentecostal until the other pentecostals got on TV and made all pentecostals look like raving loonitics.

then we decided we were Apostolics.

I don't think I'm confused .... at all ... Ferd. Perhaps this will confuse you more than I ....

DWW gave the dictionary definition ... and interestingly enough his first definition is most accurate ... but definition 4 ... mentioned the Mormons ...

If you want to keep the label ... I suggest you patent/trademark it ...

Because if you open up the yellow pages... you'll find hundreds of churches with the word Apostolic in it ... OP and Trinitarian ....

Here's one APOSTOLIC CHURCH .... http://www.apostolic-church.org/Home...7/Default.aspx

Do they fit your mold ... Ferd????

Or are they posers???

Jesus never called his movement Apostolic ... he called them believers ... children of God ... my disciples ... my friends ....

The Apostles called it THE WAY ....

but with that said ..... I'M STILL MORE APOSTOLIC THAN YOU'LL EVER BE!!!!

This concept that we own the word APOSTOLIC ... is kind of like ... Americans [U.S] .... who forget those living in North, South and Central America .... like: Canadians ... Mexicans ... Panamanians, Ecuadorians ... Guatemalans ... Guayanese ... Brazilians .... Chileans .... ARE AMERICANS TOO ...

I guess we could say it's the dominant usage, or the greater representation of the words.


Of groups using the "Apostolic" term, I would think Oneness Pentecostals would either be the most dominant, or the runner up - next to catholic.
