It's been tried. When being cordial and respective they still rip into you. You're bitter, disillusional, backslid. Hard to find intellectual honesty on their side.

"They", "their"?

It's not true. When I done this?

Re: The Trouble With Apostolics is...
I don't think you feel your definition of apostolic has no flexibilty for interpretation. If I'm wrong let me know.

We are not called to be apostolics. Christ mandated to follow Him. Paul says to follow him as he follows Christ. Most apostolics can't even follow Paul let alone Christ.

Which brings the question...do we glory in being "apostolics"? Or are we to glory in the Cross and follow after Christ?

I wish people would say "Do I glory in being blah blah" instead of including all the rest of us with "we"

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.

Ok.

I answered his post within the context he posted. Plural.

It is not unheard of that many apostolics glory more in identifying themselves as apostolic than identifying themselves to be like Christ.

But your wish is duly noted and I will try to remember that the next time I post my thoughts.

Neither can most 'Christians'.
