From time to time we here at AFF call a press conference.
Our beloved Timmy will soon give a statement. There has been much speculation regarding Timmy's beliefs, or perhaps more accurately unbeliefs.
Please stay tuned here for a full statement and disclosure of Timmy's Articles Of Faithlessness.
This is Hoovie - I am simply filling in for our chief paparazzi Thadeus.

Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945
"It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves
And we give into his need for attention- yet again... From my understanding, he is a former AG, currently agnostic- never apostolic, let's see if I'm wrong.

Well, he's alive, so there's still hope. Praying for Timmy......

And? Should that prevent him from posting here?

God did it for us. Out of sheer generosity he put us in right standing with himself. A pure gift. He got us out of the mess we're in and restored us to where he always wanted us to be. And he did it by means of Jesus Christ. ~Romans 3:24 from The Message
He has not been banned by admins. so apparently it does not matter. I just ignore him because he does not believe that the Bible is inspired. Therefore, we cannot have any discussion/debate about anything because that is my core belief; if he will not believe the Bible then there is nothing I can tell him. I believe in a loving God...he in one that will take pleasure in my pain and ignore my cries for help.
BUT I can much more tolerate his posts than I can those who are so bound by religion that all they can post is the "company line" whether it be UPC or some preacher/pastor who has "taught" them the way.

Theres nothing wrong with this being a open forum, even ex-apostolics or burned out christians have a fair say as much as anyone. That's why this board is growing and interesting while other boards like CAF and JP are exclusive and fairly boring (since they ban anyone who doesnt fit in their box)

I did not say he should be banned. Only that is has not happened. Nor did I define who should be on the board. The admins did that in the below quote when they said it was for those who held "Apostolic" faith. And again, I can ignore him a lot easier than I can the my-way-is-the-only-way-everyone-else-is-going-to-hell types who have lingered here.
"At AFF our intention is to recognize and allow all viewpoints that exist within the "Apostolic" genre. We recognize that Apostolic includes faith in Jesus Christ, a Oneness view of the Godhead, baptism in Jesus name, and the experience of the baptism of the Holy Spirit with tongues."

One thing about folks like Timmy is that they present a challenge to believers to be able to each them without having to say "Believe the Bible, or else we cannot even talk." There have been many who could deal with such people. And I think there is a need.
So, thanks, Timmy!
And we will be in prayer for your loved one.

All part of the job.
