Apostolic Friends Forum

Just curious how this forum began?
Why if you aren't apostolic would you post here or even be interested?
Why are so many posters unfriendly to others?

There is a million dollar question.

Hope your ready for the response, this should be a record posting thread.

This forum began after another one closed. The one thing that connects all the people here is they are in, were in or have connections with people in the UPC or other oneness organizations. You would have to have been around here for a while and in past forums to understand and appreciate the dynamics.

Hum perhaps the "other forum" isn't as discriminating as they say.

LOL! That is a good question!

Perhaps you don't have to be--but it helps!

How about this, you don't have to be a Christian to be civil!

The great controversy here is in defining what exactly makes one "Apostolic". Those of us that are right

know it to mean that one has repented of their sins, been baptized in the name of Jesus for the remission of sins, has received the Holy Ghost with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues, and pursues a life of holiness unto the Lord.

But there are so many other strands here that I am not sure we could rightly divide them all.
