At the end of this great time the Pastor said paraphrasing:



To which I thought

Could it be that there were a plethora of visitors and the speaker just wanted to direct the quetioners not just to the "leadership" but to even the rooted and grounded members of the church?

I don't think he meant any harm by directing questioners to the guy in a tie or the woman in heels.

Don't you attend your Apostolic church on a regular basis any way?

I have been out of the mainline Churches since 1983. This is a desperate attempt on our part to have some inkling of fellowship.

Oh Im sure he meant well. It was just that..that is the kind of thing I have feared most about attending "Apostolic" Churches.

We assumed the high heels meant on women.

I would NOT say something about a Christian to put them in such a bad light if they had not said it themself so no its not an attempt at humor.

I think I remember you mentioning something like that before I just thought you meant non-Apostolic churches.

So what do you do for Christian fellowship and how do you unite with other believers on a menaingful level, consistently?

For many years I was part of the home Church movement. In more recent years I have been part of a fellowship on Paltalk a voice active forum. The small Apostolic group I fellowshipped with there disintegrated about a year ago. I still do teaching sessions there but not on a Church basis.

Since I moved to Ky 12 years ago we have not heard of any Apostolic home groups in our area so thats why we have been attempting to get in the mindset of going to a mainline Apostolic Church. For the moment no other options.

We did visit the AOG Church down the road for a while because we had similar end time beliefs but it was not enough to keep us there.

I never consider the end times beliefs for church attendance; rather, I tend
to look to their beginning: the gospel that saves.
