Yeah, this tends to breed mistrust or suspicion not so much racism...I think we need to define terms. Racism is an often misused term.

In fact when I moved in here where I am it took a while for the old man to warm up to me. He tends to treat me like family now..

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:

  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Racism is often misused. I'm not sure we will ever be able to correct that.

That's great! I'm am very careful when we are at my FIL's house. He is old and has a tendency to think or suspect people steal from him. It makes me a little nervous when we are there. I'm afraid he will misplace something and think we took it. LOL!

That video has been taken down due to a copyright claim by "Church of God of Cleveland TN."

Wonder why? Does it make them look bad?
