This is talking about retribution. Pay back. Macho mas macho....gang banger shoots your neighborhood up...you go to the same...Man rapes you wife, you go hunt him down and kill him or beat him up.

Vengeance, retribution...

We are not talking either about someone that has "trasngressed against you"...like he stepped on your daisies and you blow his head off. We are talking about someone that is breaking into your house and you are home...or someone that is attacking your wife and or kids or an estranged husband is about to stomp on the head of his wife and cave it in and you have the chance to stop him by some physical means....does not necessarily have to be killing, but any sort of physical means. Just realize that sometimes death happens too.

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.
