Define apostolic with scripture.

A christian is defined in scripture. A believer is defined in scripture. An apostolic is not defined in scripture.

My point exactly. Some pontificate about being apostolic and others chime in and tell them they aren't because of a definition. Not sure how you can tell someone they aren't something if even you can't define the term. This whole discussion is actually quite circular, IMO.

Was not the thread about what people think apostolics are versus what self-described apostolics are?

No. But you implied it was useless to convince some folks around here. I was merely pointing out the other side of that coin.

Perhaps. But it seems to me that if no definition of "apostolic" is acceptable then we have circular reasoning.

The point to Dan is the same point I made to ogia. Anyone can say they are apostolic.
