We are to be Apostolic on all levels like they were in the Book of Acts and for a while there during the early 20th century revivals(you know all those signs that supposed to follow ALL believers).... Acts 8 is a good role model for this.
By the way, I don't like the term CHRISTIAN either....throughout the NT we were overwhelmingly referered to as SAINTS in the epistles , not christians.
The word Christian is only used 3 times in the NT......what's even more thought provoking though is that the number of times the word Apostolic is used in reference to believers is ZERO. |
Acts 11:26
And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people.
And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
and it's in the book of Acts IsolatedSaint
