The Editor-in-Chief is blasting AFF and repeating his column via sermonizing.
"They act like they're big, but they don't have any integrity or character. They want to mess with your kids." |
That quote is despicable if the "editor-in-chief" really said that about AFF.
The thing is, many folks will have logged on out of curiosity pretty much right after that was said and not found anything like the speaker had warned them of. If the speaker can't be trusted with this type of analysis, what else can't he be trusted with?

Bingo. While we have never posited AFF as kid friendly venue for anything, there is no great mOnster lurking here. Lots of friendly and welcoming church folk here. All Apostolics are welcome, be they liberals, conservatives or something in between.

What happened to the open, honest, non-secretive, transparent forum that we all loved. Perhaps tomorrow is a new day.

Maximilian deleted his own post. Next conspiracy theory, please.

Is that a Joseph Stalin quote or a quote from the UPC Manual?

Re: Apostolic News: AFF has been HIJACKED
By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. John 13:35
Makes me wonder if some people find it more important to be recognized as "Apostolic" than be seen as a disciple of Jesus.Its a shame that people cut off those they have much in common with over a few things they disagree on.If I cant fellowship and have a loving and respectful relationship with a "brother" than how can I love a "sinner"?

Those go hand-in-hand. The first obsession with many groups is not being like other Christians. Let alone "sinners," who are "outsiders" whom are children need protection from.

That is an "old" verse which applied only in the first century. It is no longer applicable to us today. In today's world, Jesus (through our clergy, leaders, and pope) is now saying, "By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, by your AI (Apostolic Identity)." Love is no longer relevant. What really counts is clothing styles and specific doctrines. That's how you tell the real from the false -- the professors from the possessors--the wheat from the tares. If you are in doubt as to just what AI is, read the Pentecostal Herald and the UPC Manual and listen to the pronouncements of the pope as he speaks "ex cathedra."

Re: Apostolic News: AFF has been HIJACKED
"While there are some true apostolic members that join these forums and even participate in them, the vast majority of members of some of these forums include disgruntled backsliders and no doubt some trinitarians. I am very concerned for our children that surf these forum sites and become entangled with so much of this filth."
So, we have been discerned or judged or fruit-inspected by our brethren and we are a bunch of "disgruntled backsliders" and "trinitarians" and what we post on AFF is a bunch of "filth".
Can't you just feel the LOVE?
