Salvation is between God and the individual. God will judge the "minister" based on their understanding, but to say that the actions of a third party determines someone else' salvation is ludicrous.


Bingo.

Amen. Sometimes I think some Apostolics are literally going to be angry that some people are in Heaven that they had consigned to Hell. Then they're going to weep in shame as their "sinners with the Holy Ghost" teaching passes through the fire and does not pass the test. Wood, hay and stubble.
