Apostolic this, apostolic that??

What's up with using the apostolic word alot lately? I just recently heard someone say apostolic fun.

I know the intent of the original meaning is but seems to be stretched to cover alot of things.

I got news for for some, it's impossible to look apostolic! shock I know, but the apostles are dead and gone which means we can't follow them as they follow Christ.

We must follow those following Christ today. We must become Christolics.

Am I off base?

It's actually to the point of annoying.

www.apostolicnews.com

Count how many banners have sub-items denoted by "Apostolic."

Cool word they are trying to brand, pull out of its context, and make a promotions piece that they can differentiate themselves from other Christians.

Maybe it was "Apostolics have NO Fun!"
