LOL..browsing through the forum...
Cracks me up ! "Bapticostals"...really ??? LOL....I'm surprised I have not seen Apostolic Messianic Jews that keeps the Sabbath...what else or who else is here !! Lots of "zealous" saints, some contemporary, some...I could relate with. That would be "Sinners saved from sin"...Yes, I don't fast twice a week, and I try to be faithful in paying my tithes...

Re: LOL..browsing through the forum...
There's a lot here my brother. A word of advice, keep your mind open. Someone may speak to you who isn't even an apostolic pentecostal "per se" and could open your mind to a word of scripture in a way you've never thought of it before. I came here rock hard in everything I knew...for about two days.

That would be some true heathens here considering the broad sense of a "generic christian".

Re: LOL..browsing through the forum...
When I started out here I thought this place would be full of cookie cutter people... like my church. High haired jean skirt and tennis shoe wearing ladies and men with long sleeves, short hair and clean shaven faces. Most unable to articulate their beliefs or explain the scripture they can quote paragraphs of.
Boy howdy was I surprised. While we don't always agree I find that mostly everyone is able to make their points in ways that make me go hummmm... and I don't go hummm in real life to often. 
Oh and I'm a cathli-bapti-costal... one God Apostolic holy ghost filled tongue talking sabbbatarian who believes that women can be bishops if we can just figure out what a bishop is.

Re: LOL..browsing through the forum...
Bro. Vince, it is indeed an eclectic bunch at AFF. Within the realm of Pentecost / Apostolic there certainly are a lot of different schools of thought on just about everything!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Being Catholic is like being Jewish... it's as much cultural as it is religious... at least in the Hispanic community. Once you have completed your catechisms you are indoctrinated, lol!

I sincerely apologize for making an example of you. Who am I to judge your faith. There is only ONE that can judge, and I know it is not me. According to your faith,let it be done unto you.

Oh, I remember being "coerced" to perform all my duties as a good Catholic. One of my cousins who was convinced that he had commited a "MORTAL SIN"...blindfolded himself, and whip himself bloody, asking for forgiveness. I only learned about it after the fact, because I was here in the US, and this was in the Phillipines. I tried to witness to many Catholic relatives, including my mom, but she always tell me, "GOD knows my heart"...and I become speechless, don't know how to respond to that.
