Not sure about that Baron...Chrstianity may have differing views on everything including salvation but the term Apostolic is usually for those who believe in
Acts 2:38 where salvation was preached on the day of Pentecost by Peter who was handed the keys to the kingdom....Jesus name baptism, infilling of the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues...seperation from the world....holiness living...maybe those who are not following these call themselves Christians but I don't understand how Apostolic if they don't believe in those things that the Apostolic Church preaches.....and I'm not talking about differences in length of sleeves, haircuts etc. I'm talking about the major points I made here. Salvation, baptism, Holy Ghost.....
