Exactly, we do have a choice and I choose to trust God completely.

BTW, my son won't even take medication when he is sick, because he trusts God completely and I didn't even teach him that. He found it in the Bible and he showed me some things that the Bible has about it.

Re: Witchcraft = medication

What bothers me is how people we are trying to win think we are some sort of Jim Jones cult because we got members that do this

  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

They think we're a cult because of a lot more than trusting God. People think we're a cult over Jesus name baptism, talking in tongues, dress standards, the no tv thing, the list goes on.

No, they don't think we're a cult because of trusting God completely and having Great Faith, but it is because of the manmade standards and some of the other outlandish things that many Apostolics believe is the reasons why worldly people think that we are a cult. In some things, a lot of Apostolics are a cult.

No, they think you're heretics because of your doctrines on baptism andin some cases tongues. They think you're a little weird because of the standards issues. They think you're a cult because of the abuse of pastoral authority. And in some cases they're right!

Re: Witchcraft = medication

If I don't take my meds I'll die. Pretty simple choice for me. If I stopped taking my meds it'd be as much suicide as if you were to overdose on them on purpose. So what do I do? Kill myself to prove a point? No thanks.

I know, especially when there is a scripture that show that we walk by faith, not by sight.

II Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight

It's sad indeed.
