...I hear you. And I understand. What about studying/becoming another type of minister?

Re: How to Become a Successful Apostolic Minister

What is considered "success" and what is considered "apostolic"? Someone who gathers thousands into an arena to watch staged emotion and canned action can be either a "successfull apostolic minister" or the promother of TV Wresting. The end result is about the same.

Anything is possible... not sure if it's probable.

3. Keep your mouth shut about your liberties.

Do what you do in secret. After all, it's not about truth, it's all about perception.

4. Say the word "Apostolic" fifty times a day. Integrate it into every conversation and sermon. For extra credit add the word "Identity." After all, "Apostolic Identity" is the new way of saying "holiness."

See, DKB learned that holiness has little to do with standards, so he created a made-up label to match all of the made-up extra-biblical standards.

So now Oneness people can accuse "compromisers by saying "He doesn't believe in Apostolic Identity," instead of saying "He doesn't believe in holiness."

That way we don't have to bring pesky things like the Bible into the conversation.
Why I love Jeff Arnold and my pastor, they are real and consistent.
