What is the apostolic religion? What are their beliefs?

I often wonder why mankind insist on putting God into a box. God is not so narrow minded that a soul would be lost because of symantics. In Mark 9 starting at verse 38 Jesus had a discussion with his deciples about seperatism 38 And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us. 39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me. 40 For he that is not against us is on our part.

One thing we fail to realize is that Jeus is not coming back for a religion. He is coming back for His church. That church without a spot or a wrinkle. That church where His Gospel has been preached in fullness. You cannot have Jesus without the Father and the Holy Spirit. I believe that the Apostolic Faith that preach oneness is being very narrow minded in their interpetation of God's word and I find it dangerous when we start determining who will make it in and who will not. I also would like to say that Idon't believe that any religion is100% right in their doctrine. I say this because religion is man made where they base their doctrine on their interpretation of a scripture; or what they beieve God has revealed or spoken to them. We cannot exclude any scripture in our christian walk. We must do as 2 Timothy 2:15 says; Study so that we know what is the truth. God is not concern about your Denomination; He is concerned with wheather or not you have accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior. And please can anyone tell me where JESUS said that a person must speak in tongues to be saved or filled with the Holy Spirit? I always consider these to be Gifts that God gave according to His grace.

hey I'm apostolic, and its funny because everything your saying is true... its really not about religion... we all know what people are going to make it and what people are not, its saved or unsaved... thats about it, it doesn't matter what religion you are if your a sinner then thats that but remember there's a difference between "sining" and being a "sinner"... there are a lot of people that play church, but than go back out into there world and do all kinds of things. so I believe as long as you baptised, in the name of Jesus, the father, and the holy spirit and you repent for your sins and you have a good heart then your fine.. but not all "good" people make it.

John 3:5 Verily Verily I say unto thee lest a man be born of the water and of the spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven. Ephesians 4:5 One Lord one Faith One baptism. Deut. 4:6 Hear o' Israel the lord our God is one Lord. The bible tells us that there is only Jesus. God was manifested into man to become jesus to Die on the cross. It had to be God because for Jesus to be a perfect sacrifice he had to be 100% man and 100% GOD to be a perfect sacrifice. John 1:1 says in the beginning was the word the word was with God the word WAS GOD. John 1:14 And the WORD became FLESH and dwelt among us. That was Jesus there is only one god which is the father son and holy spirit. Apostolics don't put God in a box because we still see miracles signs and wonders.

Speaking in tongues is one of the Gifts, different people have different gifts, it's not a requirement.
