Re: Apostolic News: AFF has been HIJACKED
"Questioning doctrine" has, from time to time, changed the way I think. But most often it makes me dig deeper and then I end up stronger in my faith than before.
To fear or abhor the questioning of doctrine is to operate under the premise that one has attained all truth and holds, without any question or doubt, zero error in their beliefs.
It is tantamount to saying I am right in all things that I know. My knowledge is perfect and without flaw.
This is the position of fools.
And... a place like AFF tends to have a lot of that going on because so few places allow you to ask questions and ask why. So many forums are simply bat packing societies of mutual admiration and chasten, shun and alienate anyone who would have questions. So it is no wonder that many who have questions congregate in one of the few places they can feel free to do so.
And then the us four & no more society still lurks about wishing they could stop us from asking questions here too.

Re: Apostolic News: AFF has been HIJACKED
If you should find yourself in such a predictament, where would you feel you
could go!
http://www.apostolicfriendsforum.com...ead.php?t=1164
While I don't agree with everyone on AFF, and everyone on AFF surely
do not agree with me, one thing I do know, mercy, love and compassion
have been found on this forum. OneAccord can witness this. During the
last days of his dear wife's terminal illness, there were times when he would
be up at night, unable to sleep, there was usually someone else up also
that would give him words of encouragement, perhaps letting him know
they were praying for him, across the miles! Prayng through the dark night
until the light of dawn appeared.

I sure wish these guys would've staged a successful coup of the mothership and Wilson would've landed his lifelong dream job ... Forumland would've stayed vibrant and "hopping" after, 2008.

Don't get cocky padawan, call to remembrance the origin of THIS thread. LOL
Apparently there is some strong cross forum posting on CAF and AMF, furthermore APF is a banned subject on AMF. PQD, XYZ and all those other initials.
