yup, he does....it is part of his Apostolic faith in his Apostolic
experience that has lead him to understand the Apostolic Perspective of
salvation.
Now all those adjectives (the word Apsostolic) give the impression that
there are many different faiths, experiences and perspectives. This
gives the impression that he acknowledges the Biblical plan of
salvation, but yet believes there are other ways to be saved.
Paul wrote that there is ONE faith, ONE baptism so why in a list that is
supposed to be totally Apostolic is the very root of our (and yes I
speak for many apostolics here) doctrine being watered down. Are we
heading towards a "kindler gentler" doctrine are we leaving the items
that separate ourselves from the denominal world for sake of fellowship
(all the while we are meeting them on their terms!). I hope not...if so
then we will be the church of Ephesus and one day be chastized for
leaving our first love.
