Anyone else notice this in their area?

"Is there anyone who is Apostolic anymore?" What a way to start out posting.
When I read this, a couple things came to mind.
1. Who is this person and does he think he's the only "real Apostolic" left?
2. I don't know his motives because in written communication like this we cannot see facial expressions, body language, voice inflections, etc but it did not include a smiley face or indication that it was written as a joke.
3. I first thought of the "badge" (shown as an attachment below) that he may be wearing.
4. I also thought of Elijah when he thought he was the only one left in the truth and living for God and the Lord had to remind him that he was not alone, thousands of others were alive and well and living for the Lord. Elijah must have just not been aware of them or maybe he didn't recognize them because they may have not met his personal criteria for being saints. (reference
1 Kings 19:10-18)
