Re: Where Are The Real Apostolics?

No one believes that drinking wine is a sin until they are indoctrinated.

It could certainly be advisable for some to refrain from wine/Alcohol. Maybe a "weight", if not a sin?

Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945

Being drunk is the sin.

The same as the brothers aren't to just kiss the sisters and vice versa. Also not everyone may be exactly comfortable with it. If they are comfortable with it, you may greet them with a holy kiss, if not, you don't force them.

Another scripture comes to mind, about not letting things that you have liberty to do, become a stumbling block to a saint...1Cor 8:9
What church do you go to?

So if someone is not comfortable with a certain verse they can disobey it?

Re: Where Are The Real Apostolics?

The fact is many conservatives don't do the kissing thing all the while talking about how others compromise His word and not obey it. They have their excuses and reasons for why they don't have to kiss each other or drink wine instead of water.

The fact is, when you learn to study the bible you learn a principle called Hermeneutics. In Hermeneutics you must consider several factors like context, who wrote it and to whom, when, where, the grammar and types of speech.

When you realize that kissing was a customary way to greet someone

Mat 26:48 And he who betrayed Him gave them a sign, saying, Whomever I shall kiss, He is the one, lay hold on Him.
Mat 26:49 And coming up to Jesus immediately, he said, Hail, Master! And he kissed Him.


Luk 7:44 And He turned to the woman and said to Simon, Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, yet you gave Me no water for My feet. But she has washed My feet with tears, and has wiped them with the hair of her head.
Luk 7:45 You gave Me no kiss, but this woman, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss My feet.
Luk 7:46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with ointment.


Footwashing was also a middle eastern custom as they walked around in sandals and their feet were dusty.

In America we generally shake hands and when more intimate we hug but not kiss. That is our culture...kissing was theirs.

People misunderstand the word and come up with all sort of doctrines...like snake handling.

I believe a lack of hermeneutics and the KJV lead to a lot of these problems
