I draw the line at passing myself off as another person on a social network.
Some of the tweets, imo, are suggestive and derogatory if it is an imposter as it seems.
I think his public comments and doctrine are fair game but not taking personal swipes in this manner.
I agree. Completely inappropriate!

It is completely inappropriate. I've heard of it being done before, really. And seen it once. Done to a person who didn't have internet.
I was joking on my last post, though it does seem like a possibility that someone has done that in this case to LS. I didn't mean, Dan, that you would do such a thing-that part came across totally wrong. I meant that you might be joking about being offended by being followed. Didn't realize til after I started writing this how it might have come across. For that I sincerely apologize.
It's so easy to quote Greek when your famous as Lee Stoneking is. No one would dare look it up themselves and challenge him.
I remember my Pastor once said regarding men having a beard, and this is how far fetched these guys can be, that is why it's hard to listen to these guys preach on this, irregardless as to how they can present it with hooping and hollering on stage and driving that message home, and making it appear that it's anointed. He said;
"It's not good for a man to have a beard in leadership".

He may have been right at one point in time.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
I think doing that draws close to being illegal, like identity theft and impersonating a prophet (ok that was TIC) and slanderous (the written kind, forget what that is called)

I would think that if they are using his name and his picture, there should be some sort of recourse. His name may not be trademarked, but if they are using video and pictures of him and claiming to be him, that should be illegal IMO.

A site admin told me not long ago (another site) that though it is generally overlooked, even registering under a totally false name borders on very, very bad.
