How about the baggage of always having to post with a yawn? It seems that you have no other way to express your disagreement with the thread.
Do a search and see how often I have done that.
It was a slow day at work today, and I was feeling sort of yawnified.
You seem a little edgy, Pelathais.
I have other ways of showing disagreement, but you wouldn't like them either.

Funny how people who love the titles "Father, Son and Holy Ghost" hate the titles "moderate, liberal and conservative."
One man's poison is another man's elixer.
Agreed PastorPoster. Its almost as bad as those among my minister peers who cling to titles like Pastor and Evangelist instead of teaching that they are types of ministries rather than positions and all christians whether lay or clergy (if you like those two non-biblical concepts) can be used in all the 5 fold ministries depending on their gifts, personality and God given calling.

I have no problem with most titles, as long as they are not used as some sort of free pass to Pentecostal stardom.
Seems there is a recent trend to include bishop and elder in those titles as well. I guess it's okay, but folks go a bit overboard sometimes.

Wouldn't call me a lover of the titles Father, Son, and Holy Ghost but I don't like the titles liberal, moderate, or conservative either.
I agree that those terms are used to discribe others within our ranks because of a stand for a particular dress or a lack of stand on particular dress. Or even a stand for or against TV.
Yet when I look at my own family I do not talk about them as liberals conservatives. I know I have brothers who are more liberal in attitude than I and sisters and a brother who are more conservative than I. Yet we are all still brothers and sisters and we all fight with each other and for each other.
The problem with the Apostolic/Pentecostal ranks seems to be that we know who stand for what and we fight with them and attack them and ridicule them and when others come around to fight against our family instead of helping our family we fight with the enemy against them.
I know this is not how everyone is but it seems a majority.
Our mantra should be "United we stand, devided we fall" and then we should actually live by it.
I don't mind either of the titles...depending on the context. Really, no matter how liberal someone is, they are still conservative about some things. No matter how conservative someone is, they are still liberal about somethings. I have yet to see a title fit a person. We use several titles to get an understanding of God, yet, even with those multiple titles, we still can't grasp His Glory.
