Does that make you any wiser, for always wanting to argue and "stir things up"???

Sherri,

It may look and feel alive, but if they aren't preaching the truth, it is not the kind of "alive" that will save you.

Have some of you folks gone so far off the reservation that you would honestly fellowship heresy like the trinity for the sake of more lively worship or whatever you are calling "alive?''

Unbelievable.

salvation by wearing certain clothes
salvation by tithing
everyone is going to hell who has not been baptized in Jesus name
everyone is going to hell who has not spoken with tongues
With that list of criteria, it wouldn't make a difference which option you picked.

The end result would be the same.

BUMP for Sam

Which He? The Spirit of God, that is the very essence of God Himself, or God the Holy Spirit, third person in the Trini-TEE?

Answer:
Yes and He (God/ the Spirit of God/ the Spirit of Jesus/ the Holy Ghost/ the Holy Spirit/ God the Holy Ghost) does move in trinnie churches.
He (God/ the Spirit of God/ the Spirit of Jesus/ the Holy Ghost/ the Holy Spirit/ God the Holy Ghost) moves wherever folks will allow Him (God/ the Spirit of God/ the Spirit of Jesus/ the Holy Ghost/ the Holy Spirit/ God the Holy Ghost) to move.

I will definitely fellowship with someone who doesn't believe exactly like I do! I have never ever heard one of them try to convince people to believe "trinitarian" rather then "oneness". It's a non-issue to them; it's only an issue on our side. Our church kids attend an AG youth camp and we had 9 receive the Holy Ghost there this year! The trinity was never mentioned one time! They came home and have all been baptized in Jesus' name, or are going to be soon.

Again I say, THEY ARE NOT THE ENEMY!!

I don't think they have a pool and exercize equipment. They go because when they moved there and spoke to the UPC Pastor they told him that they did not believe in standards and that it caused friction in their former UPC so that pastor refused to allow them to come to that church. There was no other Oneness church nearby

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.
