If I wasn't apostolic...
Ok, so, if you weren't apostolic, what would you be? Please pick an option on the poll and specify.
For me, I picked church of Christ. The main reason why is because I'd like their preaching, their knowledge of the Bible (although they tend to make mountains out of molehills a lot of the time), singing and their restorationist/Christian primitivist "theme", which I like. I'd also consider the Primitive Baptists for my "second choice faith" but I'd have a lot of issues with them being hyper-Calvinists, since I consider myself a bit of a hyper-Arminian... but I sure would enjoy the a capella singing.
Anyways, not that I or anyone else that responds to this poll doesn't want to be apostolic, but it sort of tells something about someone, when they pick their "second choice" faith, if you will...

Re: If I wasn't apostolic...
Where's the beef?!
Ooops... I forgot to put in an "other option", when I saw you nakhoe, I thought, "I should have added Messianic Jewish", but they're sort of not a large enough group, and they have some who are apostolic, but, either way, hopefully whoever votes will also specify.

But I'm not Messianic Jewish...I'm not Jewish at all.

Re: If I wasn't apostolic...
I grew up Catholic, so I would have more than likely defaulted back to that if it wasn't for the Lord.

Re: If I wasn't apostolic...
I'd probably gravitate toward something that emphasizes free will, and doesn't remove responsibility for sin from the person, except through repentance.
Methodist/Wesleyan/Lutheran would be my leaning.
