Re: Where Are The Real Apostolics?
I've been baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. I've been filled with the Holy Ghost with evidence of speaking in tongues. I'm living a holy and sanctified life before God. I don't know if that "qualifies" me a s a "real Apostolic", but I'm born again, so that's enough for me.

I've spent countless hours on the streets preaching in DC. Needless to say if you're gonna do that plan on casting a few demons out and seeing some crazy stuff.... skirt length will be the last thing you'll be worried about.

Oh. Well...I don't know what I am then lol. I think most people consider me conservative because of the way I practice holiness. As an example, I don't take the chance of displeasing God or causing anyone else to stumble by my skirt length. If I err, I want to err on the side of caution, so I wear them as close to the floor as I can find them. Some people don't share that conviction, but to me, a few extra inches is such a small thing to do to serve God and my fellow man/woman, so why not be safe? If I wanted to push the issue and wear them just long enough to meet human standards, that would show my heart is full of dead men's bones.
I think that's why some have called me conservative.

Re: Where Are The Real Apostolics?
 This is a silly thread. The OP tries to conduct a stupid roll-call of who is a "real apostolic" and much of the response is to argue with the OP over their simplistic view point and who is more apostolic. Whats next, whos gonna sit on the right side of Jesus at the marriage supper of the Lamb? Count me as an apostolic with nothing to prove. Im going over to the off-road forum. They dont argue so much and I understand them better.

Re: Where Are The Real Apostolics?
I went to an Ultra Conservative camp meeting and all I got was this T-shirt that said "Kiss me, I'm Apostolic"

It should have said "Kiss Me (with a Holy Kiss), I'm Apostolic"!

Re: Where Are The Real Apostolics?
You be surprised how many Brazilian, Haitian, and Spanish congregations have no phobia about kissing each other. I'll pass, but if you all want to be kissing each other do as you very well please.
