Re: Forum is Ex-Pentecostal??
Give rgcraig a break. She is as fair as any moderator I have ever seen on a forum. Some people would not be pleased if you gave em squatters rights and they could squat all they wanted and then take over the place. The conservative and the liberal can post here. That is why I like to read here. Most conservative boards give an ole guy like me who is considered friendly to the more liberal [although I am conservative myself] the boot as soon as the door is open. Whosoever will may come, that is the motto of the this board compared to most.

My present pastor I have only known for a short time. He is very kind and loving. I was very shocked when I first came to AFF to see a lot of people's disdain for other apostolics. And they have a lot of excuses for it. But it comes down to personal accountability, just because someone is rude doesn't mean I have to respond in kind. There are ways to get your point across without being offensive.

You are correct, of course, and very fortunate in the pastors that you've been blessed with.
I was merely comparing what I've seen here to what I've seen and heard elsewhere. Apostolics can be an onery bunch, from my experience. But there are also those tremendous examples who find some way to rise above it all and they are an inspiration for us all.

I agree with that. I do not like to compare people I know with people I only know on a forum, however I expect and give respect to others opinions or I at least try.

Re: Forum is Ex-Pentecostal??
nice thread.
For whatever it is worth. I have always appreciated the admin team, and though there has been schisms and disagreements, I still appreciate them.

As to Admins:
I've never had the honor of meeting Renda but from everything I see on the Forum she is a fine lady.

Rgcraig is very fair and good hearted! FWIW, I don't believe the admin of this forum have an agenda when it comes to favoring posters who hold to their own (the admin's) personal beliefs.
