I know it's hard for many to believe but God isn't pentecostal or apostolic. God isn't a christian. God isn't trinitarian or oneness. God is God, period. When I get to heaven, I won't see a penetecosal or apostolic on the throne. I will see Jesus.

I'm not going to label myself becasue once I do, I paint God in this little box based on my labels.

Hey I agree~ Jesus never called Himself Pentecostal or Apostolic. in fact a lot of the standards teachings heaven or hell Jesus and the apostle never taught it.

God impressed on my if I have to tell people I'm a christian, than maybe I'm not the christian I should be. When I'm living right. People will know. I won't have to wear a lapel pin or put a bumper sticker on my car. People will know. My ultimate goal is to live so people see Jesus and not me. When they see Jesus, they will see someone who is a christian.

Amen~ The word clear, you'll know my people, if they love~ Nothing more, nothing less~

Some folks think the love of God is 2 hippies in a sleeping bag.

Sadly most of you believe love has something to do with a wardrobe change~
