You know Jesus didn't have a prayer line, or anyone shaking a tambourine behind him to set a mood. I watched the video and it just seems to flaky generic Pennycostal. Revelation 12:11 is the word of our testimony of being under the blood of Jesus Christ and triumphing over Satan. Not how many children were murdered.
So you didn't take the time to fully inform yourself, you just watched the one video?

Got anything else to shut him down? Listen, I'm not making him out to be anything. I merely submitted his name for Lafon's sake. But if you've got the goods on why Joshua is a fake or flake, make it known so I can know not to care/share anymore.

Because one video and how it seemed to you is precious little to go on to disparage a man who may in fact have been visited by the Lord Jesus Christ.

And so what if he shared what he used to be before or the things he did? Paul did that a lot, too, as a means to eventually declare the Gospel, including how he used to persecute and destroy the people of God.

I know that when I talk about how the Lord saved me I always talk about what He saved me from and what I used to be to drive home the point that the Holy Spirit changed me. Can't Joshua do the same?

PS. The nom du guerre assumed by Joshua, as silly as it seems to us now, was a terrifying, terrible reality back when he was a soldier. If you haven't read more, you should. Find out what the deal was behind the name.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Re: And you thought YOU were apostolic?

How are you supposed to be recognized as apostle by a peer apostle if said peer apostle did not receive the same recognition? Apostolic succession/

Maybe YOU should watch his video again.

Let's not get dramatic about the whole thing.

I'm just done with the goof ball "I was a bad man" so that is what sells tickets. Nothing more nothing less. Hey, let's see if they take his show on the road and bring him to the United States and parade him around as the child killer become Apostolic. Hey, nothing personal, I respect your point of view on this, I just don't find anything special about the preacher. If people are converted the Apostolic faith, then that is all that matters. As far as my observation of the preacher? Then times proves all things.
