Perspectives Sounding Social Network Alarms
Apostolic news magazine publisher P.M. is sounding the alarm concerning the "growing anti-holiness, anti-doctrine, and anti-Bible rhetoric."
He claims some in the Apostolic Movement are propagating "pre-revolution rhetoric" concerning separation from the world and essentiality of baptism and speaking in tongues. (Seems a bit interesting that he refers to this as a "developing migration" away from that which is/was. The evidence seems to show otherwise. The offical UPC organ used to not only send up kites to show tolerance but actually had written statements of tolerance.)
"Social network pages are filled with self-loathing Pentecostal young people and self-anointed self defined cool preachers who will mock those who attempt to call attention to blurring lines between righteousness and worldliness".
Perspectives Magazine Vol 20 number 5
Question: What are those Apostolic Pentecostal social networking sites he has in mind?
He makes reference to some terms these mockers use - terms I have not seen used on AFF. Like "holy hags", "bun ladies", and Pentehostile".

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths
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
