When you have been "woken up" upon realizing the truth of the salvation plan and biblical formula, you have only come half way to the FULL truth of God. The so called "Apostolic" churches still ignore much of the Bible, no differently than any other denomination. They do not teach true Apostolic life or church function according the The Book Of Acts or Romans, or Hebrews. For that matter they pretty much ignore a lot of Jesus' own teachings ...
Even the biblical matters they usually taught like standards and anguish are slowly becoming obsolete in their ranks. Women are in leadership roles, they talk during the sermons and can be quite bossy at times. Pagan holidays are celebrated as God's own Biblical Holy Days are completely ignored. Children's toys and a total lack of discipline has overrun the Sanctuary. The other day I informed a woman that her grandson was turning around in the pew staring at us spitting and drooling and smiling about it; All she did was encourage the boy talking about how cute he is. I was insulted and offended by the absence of discipline ...
Mark 11:15-16 "And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves; And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple."
They openly pay their tithes in the way Jesus commanded us not to (Matthew 6) They spend far too much money on entertainment and sound equipment and many times pay almost no regard to those who come with personal and financial needs ... claiming they do not have the funds for such matters ...

Matthew 21:12-13 "And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves."
So much materialism that Jesus would enter in and kick over tables for has taken over the simple teaching and speaking of Gods word. Conducting business and soliciting are also a regular part of "in house" activities which defy the words of Jesus. By the way, calling out for donations from the pulpit and responding the with the amount given from the pews qualifies as part of these corruptions! This most especially occurs in Camp Meetings ...
I know all about the "Apostolic" churches. I grew up in them, traveled visiting them, and they are some of the most number attracting, worldly conformed, witchcraft filled, money hungry and God undermining organizations out there ... so many hearts and souls seeking the truth and only being filled with more and better lies than what they already lived by ...
Conviction has been turned into convenience ... What we call the Apostolic Age is no more than an age of apostasy ...
