Rules of Conduct
This Discussion Board is for Apostolic Pentecostal Christians. We welcome visitors of other faiths to post and ask sincere questions in their honest search to learn more of our faith and about our wonderful Lord, Savior and God whose name is Jesus Christ.
We do not allow any rebuking, hatefulness, name calling, or verbal attacks by any person or group of people, toward any person or group of people. This administration knows that God's word allows for rebuking under certain conditions, but because of the lack of understanding by some, as well as the differing views by a multitude of readers here, and for the sake of peace, we will not permit it under any circumstances. If you feel that a rebuke is in order please send and e-mail to the moderator notifying them of the situation and post(s) in question allowing the moderator to mediate the situation.
Adult Board: Apostolic Power's Hide buster is an adult discussion board. If you are under the age of 18 we recommend that you get your parents permission.
Self Moderated Board: The Apostolic Power's HIDE BUSTER is a self-moderated discussion board. If you feel that a user is not in compliance with the rules of this board please send an Email or private messege to a moderator or admin. The moderators are listed in the column on the right. The moderator will make a determination to allow the post, remove the post and warn the user, or immediately remove the user.
Responsible Liberty: Please understand that we will never agree on everything. It is okay to have differing views and to post them. Please do not argue, bicker and fight over them. Feel free to give your opinion, discuss your views on a matter, and by all means use scripture to back up your beliefs.
Fundamental Doctrine: There are four basic issues of doctrine of which there can be no argument or debate. They are what makes this an Apostolic Pentecostal Discussion Board. They are the Apostolic Doctrine of Salvation and One God:
To be saved you must repent of your sins. Acts 2:38, Acts 3:19, Acts 26:18, Acts 26:20
You must be baptized in water by submersion in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. John 3:3, John 3:5, Acts 2:38, Colossians 3:17 (We hold water baptism to be essential for salvation)
You must be filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Acts 2:4, Acts 10:46, Acts 19:6 (This is essential for salvation as well)
There is but One God and not a trinity or any other number of "persons", and His name is Jesus. 1 Timothy 3:16, Mark 12:29, Matthew 1:23, John 1:1-14
On other matters of doctrine, feel free to post your views supported with scripture. It is okay to disagree, just let the conversation flow, letting go of the need to prove yourself right. Remember, the truth needs no defense, so let go of your fleshy pride and ego. Use your anonymity to humble yourself and learn. There is no injury in this, only benefit. We can all learn from each other. If the issue is an important one and all involved are truly seeking truth, then prayerful discussion and study of God's word will reveal it.
Long Posts: The board automatically limits posts to 10000 characters
Posting Email Addresses: We recommend that you not post your email address on the board. What many may not realize is that this discussion board is a public board that is viewable by anyone and everyone in the world with Internet access. The volume of people who read these posts may also not be realized by most. It greatly out weighs those that post being read by hundreds every single day. Posting your email address may bring unwanted email. We also recommend that you not post your email address anywhere on the web. Specialized search engines scan the web continuously looking for email addresses that can be gleaned from web pages that includes this discussion board. Folks that list their addresses on the web usually find that they begin getting a lot of spam.
Posting Links: We welcome links to Apostolic Web Sites and Bible Studies. However, Links that point to web sites or material that contain information or material that would be forbidden on this board in general discussion are not permitted. For example if a web page has content that states that "you can be saved without receiving the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues", the link is not permissible.
Posting Competitive Links: Posting competitive links to other similar discussion boards is permitted. When posting a link to these kinds of boards please ensure that the board is run by Apostolics. A category will be created for posting favorite links. As a courtesy, please do not "bump" the links up by posting it repetatively to increase the exposure of the link, as this is considered rude in any discussion forum.
Language: Content that is unseemly, using bad language, name calling or offensive slang is not permitted. James 3:3
User Profile: All users must maintain their correct e-mail address in their "User Profile". This is the only way we have to look up your information to contact you. If this information is altered, missing or incorrect, that user may be deleted.
Automatic Removal: The Administrator (Admin) may at his sole discretion, without warning, remove anyone from access to this discussion board. This is usually done for blatant disregard of these rules. Removal of Members is permanent.
In Process: These rules are always in process of being updated and improved upon. If you have input or suggestions regarding the rules of conduct on this discussion board please contact the Administrator.
As Paul said; "Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen."
