Ulterior motives...final conclusions...I dunno think of it how you want and if it doesn't satisfy you, debate about it. What is the lasting mark you want to leave on AFF, your grand impression, the point where you can look back and say "I did...what I setest out to do?
Mine is pretty "me", I'm here to seek out different ways of looking at things, while at the same time sticking to my basic beliefs. I'm here for fellowship...and maaaaaybe if I feel strongly enough about something and no one agrees, to put out my arguement and possibly change a mind or two? Hmmm...

When I was here all the time, I wanted and received friendship. It was a great social network with people I understood because we all came from the same type background.

I really wanted to find some friendship with people of the same background. It has surpassed my expectations. I hope I am remembered for kindness and humor. With a few along the way.

I'll remember all that Cindy, from what I've seen, you've accomplished your goals. You can quit now!

When I came here I has one foot (and a leg) out of the UPC and by extension out of the Apostolic movement.. Coming here has helped me to see that there are Apostolics who are respectful of different opinons... and that the ones I felt were not were indeed exactly what I thought they were. It has been a very good experience for me.
I don't have any ambiton to change another's mind... only to be myself and share my journey and if God uses that to help someone else, that is good.
When I came to AFF, I had done a search on hair, and Stoneking, because I had begun questioning the "hair" doctrine. I clicked on the google search for that, that brought me to AFF. Since then, I've been here off and on, during times when I have more time than others. I am here still because I want to continue to learn, and iron sharpeneth iron. Sometimes you think you have stuff all figured out in your head, and then you talk to someone, and you see the other side of the question, and then you really have to dig into the scriptures to see if what you thought was true, is.
That is why I am here. I am on a journey, learning more about God each day, and I need brothers and sisters to sharpen me, as iron sharpeneth iron.... learning line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little and there a little, and realizing I don't really know anything at all... in fact... the more I learn, the more I realize the less I know....
along the way.
