My New Lady Friend
Goes to a non-denominational church.
I visited her church for their Sunday afternoon service.
I felt the presence of the Lord.
I worshipped the Lord.
I listened to the sermon.
I was prophesied on.
I enjoyed the service.
And I know why I am Apostolic.
As much as at times I feel that I am so at odds with how I hear certain Biblical concepts explained, I realize that God has made me to be an Apostolic.
I don't believe others are lost just because they're not Apostolic, but it has been awhile since I have felt so very sure of what I believe, what I will teach, and what I will preach.
*We are saved by grace through faith.
*Faith must be demonstrated in order for it to be faith.
*Biblically, we are commanded to demonstrate that faith through repentance and water baptism, in the Name of Jesus Christ.
*The gift of the Holy Ghost is God's Promise to all believers and should be pursued by all believers.
I plan to speak with the Pastor of my new lady friend's church, letting him know where I stand on these most important issues. I will then ask him if he thinks that it is proper for me to pursue a relationship with one of his sheep.
If he says yes, cool.
If he says no, cool.
Either way, I'll be alright.
Folks, visiting that church made me so glad to know that I am an Apostolic.
I may not like all the traditions, but I know what I believe, and I'm so glad.
