What if that church is the only option for an "apostolic believeing/teaching(outside of the no red meat doctorine) church" to attend?

Then you are toast.

In that case, I would probably obey, because I always did what the preacher told me to do, until I went nearly insane with rules and seeing the inconsistency and hypocrisy around me, left after I understood (and ONLY after I understood) that what they were telling me was not true.

Then I'd look for any church with a pastor that would stay out of my personal business. If their doctrine was a bit different, so be it -- I would still hold on to my beliefs regardless.

I think I personally, would probably have to stay put, keep eating red meat at my house if my wife was hopefully in agreeance, and overlook the non red meat doctorinal nonsense. I probably would not invite anybody over for a t bone, because then I could be accused of sewing discord/disunity. But if no other church around believed and taught acts 2:38 as the follow up answer to the preaching of the cross (what must we do?), then I'd have to stay put, because to me, that is a minimum priority that I would want my children to know should be in a church of personal choice. Of course as has been posted, whats next after no red meat?
