Hey Rev. Devito, If there have been any talks that you should leave I am not privy to them.
I enjoy you and your posts. You can dish it out, and likewise you can take the heat... that's all good as far as I am concerned.

down on this Bro Epley.
FCF was certainly a miracle or sorts. I use to think that only the
conservatives like CAF only wanted like minded people on their
forum but perhaps the same can be true for an Xpentecostal
site???

Mark you are wrong. Both the polls and athe posts confirm it.

For anyboyd to suggest Elder Epley leave I would suggest to them they most likely are not worthy of tying his shoe laces.
Ultra conservative voices have always been welcome as long as they were not voices of hate and personal attacks.
There have always been a few jerks of various viewpoints I wish would leave on their own and stay gone but they never seem to do so under their own power!!
Folks like people who self rightously proclaim that God has left the forum, etc but continue to post themselves the instant they serve out their latest ban from unchristian like posting.
St. Mark is just up to his usual mischief of stirring the pot and trying to provoke people to leave or say and do things he wants them to do.

Amen. This post deserves being repeated.

For that reason and that reason alone I would not have blamed him for leaving AFF. I think it is to his credit he had not let that kind of outside ridicule or criticism determine his course of action like some other ultra cons have.

Awww so i did have a point afterall ????
who are some of the other cons who left because of outside
pressures??? If they're gone no need to cover it up any longer

I would have to respectfully disagree with this.
The polls may say this but the posts don't always reflect this.
True, it isn't everyone but a vocal minority do.

No this site is NOT Xpentecostal, nor are most here EX-Pentecostal.
The overwhelming majority here consider themselves Oneness Pentecostal from Ultra Con to Liberal.
In fact I feel we have a rather low tolerance of Ex-Pentecostals here.

Re: Am I being asked to leave?
I disagree with many, many things you say, Bro. Epley, but I certainly hope you stay. I enjoy your perspective.
Plus, we'd never hear the end of it from St. "the-sky-is-falling" Mark.

Re: Am I being asked to leave?
Speaking as an Owner/Admin for AFF...
Bro. Epley, I would be deeply disappointed if you were to leave. 
We all have come to love you and respect you greatly.
Your talents are not wasted here. Your balance is much needed with all the roaring of anti-this and anti-that. (Which is ridiculous to me!) The FORUM doesn't make the people...the PEOPLE make the forum. YOU make it what it is. YOUR voice counts!
As for StMark, your rallying efforts informing Bro. Epley he's not wanted here are NOT appreciated, and honestly, are down-right aggravating! KNOCK IT OFF!
