You know what I find so interesting is that really this forum has caused me to re-think and challenge my beliefs and further my abililty to publicly state what I believe and understand about baptism and standards, and most topics having to do with doctrine, salvation, tradition, and culture, etc.
I would venture a guess that most garden variety Apostolic saint would have a difficult time were they put on the spot to totally exhaust their beliefs to someone else, and further have the abilty to instantly respond to the difficult questions posed here by various folks.
I would say that most apostolic pew sitters would break out in a cold sweat if their statement of belief was challenged from an academic standpoint and not necessarily from an antagonistic perspective.
You know why I say this? I have tried it and you know what? After the cold sweat, atomic anger and indignation follows.
I guess I said all that to say, I am glad folks can hit the topics from all sides, hopefully it gives folks a stronger ability to become an apologetic for their faith.
