Re: If I wasn't apostolic...
I voted Trinitarian Pentecostal. But I'm not really sure I'd be ok there. I haven't found an Apostolic church that works out real well either though.

Re: If I wasn't apostolic...
Um, this is a strange poll for me. I don't think I can pick something else, because this is the life that I hope I would lead no matter what!!!!

If it seemed that my answer was a bit flippant, it is just that I can't
imagine being anything else. It's all I've known. However I have studied
what some others have taught. How can I relate what I know unless I
have something known about their teaching to bridge the gap between
the known and unknown. In order to connect with them.

Re: If I wasn't apostolic...
I was raised closest to Church of Christ, but never did like that church. Gravitated toward Pentecostal/charismatic. Never agreed with the doctrine of any other church and believed whole heartedly that mom's idea that with so many religions, we should just pick and chose what we like and hope we're right was totally wrong. So I would be frustrated, possibly would attend a Church of Christ but more likely Baptist or Pentecostal/Charismatic or Nazarene church, absolutely lost, and very very hungry.

Re: If I wasn't apostolic...
I voted "Discouraged/atheist/agnostic."
I was raised in the RCC, but was searching because my soul hungered for so much more. I'm certain that if God hadn't found me when He did, I would have been eternally lost because of the discouragement and despair that I was in. I had suicidal thoughts and tendencies before, and I'm certain that I would have successfully done the deed had the Lord not found me. He truly did save me!!!

Re: If I wasn't apostolic...
Being first and foremost a Messianic Goy (a Gentile disciple of Yeshua/Jesus, the Hebrew Messiah) I would join with a Messianic Jewish (a traditional apostolic) assembly, like the initial Gentile Christians did.
I guess that makes me a for real "old-time" apostolic.
If not for that, I guess I would op out for the group that the Spirit of God initially led (directed) me to when Jesus first found and confronted me: The Religious Society of Friends. Today they are known mostly by their common tag: Quakers - also known generally for being quite before the Lord, taking seriously their responsibility for the entire body teaching/supporting/ministering to the entire body (no religious lords or kings among them), their exercise of the spiritual gifts, plain speech and plain dress, and for their "quaking in the Spirit".
You get the picture - almost apostolic.
