Only Satan doesn't want the world to be evangelized by apostolic preaching on tv. How else can we preach the gospel in all the world? The current population is not the same as in the days of Peter and Paul. People who are against tv are following the spirit of the antichrist in my opinion. Not having tv doesn't make anyone holier than a person that does. Righteousness comes from Christ. Dinosaur preachers are preventing the fulfilment of prophecy and their self-righteous hypocrisy is damning unevangelized souls to hell. Away with the dinosaur generation! Yes to worldwide evangelism by whoever can. Big ego is just a personal attack by jealous underachievers who don't have the maturity or education to be doing the same.

I think its a lame argument to demonize opponents in this way.

The pro tv crowd I would say by and large have genuine motives for their opinions. I feel most anti tv people have the same sincerity. Let's argue the merits without the personal invectives. It gets really old and tiring.
It is a lame argument because it seeks to avoid giving reasons why TV is wrong and instead points fingers....typical. That someone wants to be a star does not prove that TV is a bad medium for delivering the gospel

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:

  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  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.

Standing on a platform in front of a crowd is just as easily an ego factor.

Lake of the Ozarks Missouri. Come-on. I may even take an afternoon off and take a pontoon out.

My dear wife can have a few peach pies ready for us when we get back!

As I've said in the past, ALL of the UPC people I know have TVs. I don't understand why there would have to be a resolution to advertise on TV. This seems like insanity to me. I'm not stating this to berate anyone, just as fact.
