Is that your interpretation of what they mean?
I've heard some pretty wild teachings in Apostolic churches before...things that are taught as sins when they are not.
Then when the pastor's children do what was taught as sin...Behold! It is no longer sin.

His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Enter into the rest of the Lord!

AMEN, Amen and a thousand times, AMEN!!!!

For instance, I once had a pastor who taught over the pulpit that we are to obey the pastor. If his pastor told him that drinking Dr. Pepper was a sin and not to drink it, then he wouldn't drink it.  ?

Not a good idea PTLA. There are many sincere people here and I truly do not want to offend them. There are also many who are sincere to do their best to preach biblical truth and it's not fair to them for people that would read my looney teaching thread to think that all OP preachers teach looney stuff. Not all do and I do not want to cast a bad report upon them.
This is just two of the pastors that I have interacted with in my region and part of the reason I walked away from Apostolic Churches....but did not walk away from God. Like some here said, some learn from the preachers of long ago and do not change their stance despite culture and context.
I still believe in Baptism in Jesus Name and the infilling of the Holy Ghost. I get lonely sometimes, but God sustains me.
If I ever find love and acceptance in an OP church for just who I am, just the way I am, I would run there for fellowship and Bible study in a heartbeat!
