Bro. Strange,
I agree with your post, but I don't see what it has to do with the thread? Someone spoke to an
educated, religious woman who
thought "Apostolic" was defined by outward standards and with legalism. It was also said,
"She doesn't equate an apostolic as being a spirit filled believer who operates in the power and demonstration of the Holy Ghost."
While your post has truth in it, it does not answer the problem this woman has. She might be educated and religious, but she is not born again (that I've read) and apparently no one has ever taken the time to talk with her about what she believes and why, and, even moreso, explain scripturally what "Apostolic" does mean.
I don't see it and can't assume it didn't happen, but I wonder if the originator of this thread has an Apostolic church which
"operates in the power and demonstration of the Holy Ghost" to take her to? If so, was she invited?
Also, I wonder how the originator of this thread answered this
educated, religious woman's definition? Did he/she attempt to define "Apostolic" by scripture, or did he/she just agree and reinforce this woman's ignorance? If the latter, then I don't know why he/she would even start this thread, seeing as he/she shirked his/her responsibility to this woman.
It's fun to come on and bash standards, but I wonder if the
educated, religious woman in this thread is any closer to being born again than she was
before the conversation? That's what it's all about, isn't it?
