Being an UltraCon is easy you just need to know a few things to pass the ultracon test...

If you have taken Scripture out of context claim the other side hasn't got the revelation.

If that doesn't work then tell them they are backslidden or a reprobate and they want to justify their sin.

If that still doesn't work then you claim the "obey them" ace you keep for times like these.

That pretty much takes care of any argument.

Being a Liberal Apostolic is much more difficult, you have to actually examine the Scripture and weigh out what it means and how it applies to your life. No one wants to come on here and pretend to be a liberal it is too difficult.

I'm not looking for balance brother I'm looking for the power of God to shake you all up you lefty liberals need to get your sleeves to your elbows and wipe the paint off your face. I was born in the fire I can't sit in the smoke.
