And, in response to a post by CH where he says:

Down through history there have been outbreaks and revivals of this truth in various times and places throughout Christendom. And the Trinitarian church has waged all out war against it. One God Christians have been burned at the stake for refusing to believe in the Trinity or the triune baptismal formula. This isn't the time to back off the message....this is a time to get with the message.

Muslims love their Allah enough to fly planes into buildings and blow themselves up....yet we water down the original teachings of our Lord Jesus and the Apostles he called. Would it be fair to say that the Apostolics we're seeing here don't love the full application of the gospel as much as Muslims love Islam?

Shake yourselves and awaken from your slumber my brethren. This is no time to retreat into the "average" Christian faith and practice of traditional Christian religion. This is a time to stand up and be counted...to prepare for war. To storm the very gates of Hell.

The idea that Acts 2:38 isn't essential is a lie from Hell and smells like smoke.

(I bolded and underlined the part that strays from Apostolic teaching)

I personally sat in a ministerial ethics class/seminar that was being taught be Stanley Chambers (back before the Internet was anything other than a Defense Department project). Brother Chambers shared his heart and was reviled for being a "compromiser."

We don't treat our elders very well. If they were alive and on this board, they would have probably been ridiculed and driven off within the first couple of days. There teachings are edited or thrown out entirely so that this new movement of exclusivism can be allowed to dominate.
