There is great diversity among folks who call themselves Apostolic
or consider themselves Apostolic.
We do not all agree on how/when a person is justified/saved/born again.
We have differences of opinion on "oneness" or the deity of Jesus.
And as far as hair, make-up, and jewelry, each pastor teaches differently and each Christian believes differently.

If we say "We believe in one God who has revealed Himself to us as Father, Son, and Holy Ghost," then most oneness and trinitarians will agree.

If we say, "The one God of the Old Testament came to earth in the person of Jesus Christ," then most oneness and trinitarians will agree.

If we say, "The only way we will see God is in the person of Jesus Christ," then most oneness and trinitarians will agree.

When we try to get too detailed, both oneness and trinitarians disagree among themselves.

Mal 3:6 "For I, the LORD, do not change;....."
