Glad I am a UPCI guy and not a TBN wannbe like so many here on AFF!
Yea me!
Yeah, the UPCI has its scandals, my friend. Don't they?
I am not a fan of TBN or those two, in any way, I assure you. But let's not rejoice in the failure of anyone, that we "...be not parttakers of their sins..."
Their "ministries" are more of a scandal than any rumored affair, in my opinion.

I am not rejoicing in anyone's sin. that would be aweful. sharpsticking folks around here that have made a life mission out of blasting the UPCI (which I love dearly) however, is not beyond me. I am still just a sinner saved by grace and still a work in progress!
sorry my brother, you are right but I dont want to help myself today...

Ive turned over a new leaf! well sorta... its new but not too different from the old one.
Which reminds me of a story.
Back in the halcion days of my youth, I was in the Navy. there was a guy that all the sudden started walking around picking things up and saying "thats not it!"
He did this day after day and got more and more agitated. eventually he went in for a phyic eval. They kept him for a long time and he did the same thing while on the nut ward.
he would walk around the grounds of the naval hospital in Portsmouth VA in his crayz gown picking up leaves and looking at the underside and exclaim "That's not it!"
this went on for several months and eventually they gave him a crazy discharge. when he went in to get the final papers, he picked them up and exclaimed THIS IS IT!

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
