Oh, you mean "simple concepts" such as comprehending what "do not" means ?

.....Ummm, I already told you that I have an Elder who is a Greek professor & has worked with me for years personally, I took Greek classes on-line thru DTS (do you even know what that means?), can read & write the ancient language, etc.....But do not feign to be a "Greek-Scholar."

BTW, I have virtually every reputable Greek resource-lexicon-grammar available in my library.....Far more than "a book on Greek" (I would list them, but you wouldn't have the foggiest idea what I was referring to).

The Apostolic movement is "frozen" in the Scriptures.....& if you are not "frozen" in the same, you are no more a biblical Apostolic than Lady GaGa !

I find RDP disgusting, not so much for his beliefs, which he is perfectly entitiled to... but for his attitude... gross guy that I would not want to spend time talking with even if he had nice cows or anything else I was interested in... And I certainly do not want to hear him try to explain God.

Reminds me a lot of that concieted jerk that used to post here under 'thepastorscoach'.
Wow....remember "I before E, except after C"

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Ungodly

Self-Justifying

Hmmm, I suppose a great many on here have been presenting nasty.
I guess we can't be in anyone's camp huh?

Elder Epley is very well-studied....He just does not waste his time with folks so defiant & rebellious to biblical evidence.

Oh, BTW, he is not the only person I have seen state that Sabellius sent Newman packing (one of them was college professor who read the exchange, BTW).

Such a typical response from AFF though..........

In my few years on the forum, I've never seen anyone send anyone "packing". Thinking that you, or any other person on the forum, has sent anyone packing by your ultracon theology is simply a view from the la-la land you folks live in.

And who gets to determine which ones are right or wrong? Apparently the "great RDP" is the only one who gets to determine which source is correct.

If RDP really was concerned about the eternal welfare of the poor souls on AFF, his attitude certainly didn't display that at all. He came off as condescending, proud, and arrogant, and a haughty attitude to anyone with a different opinion than of himself, and with a desire to prove himself right, more than a desire to rescue all these poor souls from hell fire and brimstone.

An attitude change from RDP and Pliny would have gone a whole lot farther in this debate, but they refuse to see and acknowledge that.... just look at all the wild emoticons displayed on almost every line of his posts. A serious debater doesn't need to resort to these kind of methods to bring forth his point.
As usual.....You hold to me to a standard that you are deafeningly silent toward everyone else on....Not surprising. Y'all just refuse to get it.

Shall I go back & document the indirect murder threat, being called "despicable human being," "Pharisee," "jerk," etc., etc. (again, let me know, & I will go back & actually copy them for ya'!).

And, you think I'm gonna' sit back & just play good lil' feller'....All the while they get a free pass??

Psssst.....Not the way it works .

Wait, didn't someone say you do not believe Jesus is God ?!

And, you are talking to someone else about "LaLa-Land" ?

"Jesus Christ. This is the True God and eternal life." (I Jn. 5.20).

Ohhhh, never mind, why even waste any more of my time.......
