Re: Has AFF Changed Your Beliefs?

I've changed.

A few years ago, I'd have refused to watch a JCM Reunion DVD with singers who had left the UPC and forsaken the "Look".

I recentlly purchased the DVD and not only watched it all but enjoyed it and even felt the Holy Ghost while doing so.

I am proud of the change and hope I never return to the old judgemental self that I use to be.

All current Apostolic pastors and new candiates for the ministry should be forced to lurk here for a minimum of 2 years.

Thank You AFF.

No.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Re: Has AFF Changed Your Beliefs?

I hope I have become more tolerant of others and the beliefs of others after being on here and the previous forums.

Re: Has AFF Changed Your Beliefs?

I'm not sure?

I found AFF not too long after coming back to church and my beliefs have changed, or shifted, or something. But I don't really think AFF is responsible. I think it's been the growth and studying I've been doing. AFF has definitely given me things to think about and to study, and made me rethink things a few times over.

Re: Has AFF Changed Your Beliefs?

I haven't changed my beliefs.

I still believe The Bible is True, correct and we all are wrong at some point.

I still Believe that Gladly the Cross Eyed Bear's Old Avatar looks suspiciously like his new one...
