is this the faulty measuring stick you refer to??
there is a big difference in comparing an apostolic minister, on an apostolic forum, to someone who teaches false doctrine! You can call them preacher all you want - or generalize them and say they are a follower of christ - in reality, they are NOT as they deny the truth - you can say they demonstrate fruits of the spirit - but I dont believe that's possible.
and you cannot tell me someone teaching a false doctrine for any length of time who is sincere has NOT come to the knowledge of the truth. I'm positive they have and chose to ignore it or water it down to continue on their present course. b/c IMO, acccepting the truth and following Christ in the TRUTH takes a bit more than some are willing to commit. But that's just my opinion.
