Of course he has company.
Among the Apostolic folks there is great diversity.
We don't agree among ourselves on what words to say when a person is baptized in water.
We don't agree among ourselves on how a person is born again.
We don't agree among ourselves when we discuss/explain the Godhead.
We don't agree among ourselves on use of television and/or the internet.
We don't agree among ourselves on facial hair on men.
We don't agree among ourselves on hair length for men or women.
We don't agree among ourselves on how long sleeves should be, or how long hemlines should be, or whether we can play softball, or whether ladies can wear any kind of a garment that is divided for the legs.
Etc. etc. ad nauseum.
In the referenced article the author said
"...We as the Apostolic Church do not need to back down on what we've stood for so long. It's still Jesus Name baptism or it's hell! It's still Holiness or it's hell! It's still Holy Ghost or it's hell! and the Trinitarians are NOT our brothers, that will never change! They do not serve the same God we do!..."
That can't be said to be a typical Apostolic opinion. It represents the opinion of a few but not of the whole group. We are too diverse to be limited that way.
