No makeup at all or they are sinning?

A little base is ok but other wise it's a sin?

No jewelry whatsoever, it's all sin?

At least a wedding band, but all else is sin?

Women must wear dresses to their ankles. Anything else is sin?

Women can wear dresses and skirts to below their knees, but no slits as that is sin?

Facial hair on men is sin.?

Facial hair is ok on men, not a sin?

Men must have hair above the collar, any lower and they are sinning.?

Shorts of any length is sin?

Tithing is a must. To not tithe you sin?

No TV watching at all, it's sin?

You can't even own a video machine no TV, no VCR and no DVD player, it's sin?

No internet, it's a sin?

Music must be at least 30 years old, no new fangled stuff or it's sin.

What ever your pastor teaches or says you must obey, even if you disagree, otherwise you are sinning?

Add more here if you like. I just want to see if all those that claim they are conservatives but others here are not, believe the same. What really makes someone a conservative?
um, do you really want specifics?

I believe that we are all wrong on something. No one is right on everything. I believe that God will "reprimand" us in the life to come, either for where we lack, or where we go overboard. This covers everyone from the ultra con to the liberal. Our works will be tried by fire.

Bingo.

So, what is the difference between the men who wrote the new testament (other than the first-hand accounts of Jesus, the gospels) and the men who established the Apostolic church in America?

The men who wrote the new testament were anointed by God to write the new testament... some would call them Apostles.

Can NO one be considered an Apostle in the last 100 years?

I don't believe so. However, I do believe that some can have a ministry like unto the Apostles. The difference is, he could not write scripture or 'establish' doctrine other than what is in the scripture.

Let it be understood that Apostolic Friends Forum is an Apostolic Forum.
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.
