I would like to propose to begin our rules wiki.

To start:

1. All CF rules apply
2. For a church or body to be considered Apostolic by this congregational forum, it must:

It must proclaim an adherence to the authority of Holy Tradition
It must proclaim the necessity to have Apostolic Succession
It must proclaim a sacramental/mystical system of Grace
It must have an episcopal polity of church governance
It must have a traditional interpretation of the Nicene Creed (ie: Baptism for the forgiveness/remission of sins is seen literally, and is not up for contradictory reinterpretationThis would include the "Vatican" Catholic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Anglican Church, the Oriental Orthodox Church, the various Old Catholic churches, and many of the various Continuing Anglican churches. This list is in no particular order.

In addition, I would like to suggest a nickname for our Apostolic Churches board: This Is My Body/Blood (TIMB for short)

As an alternative, see my post in the Welcome thread with a few minor changes to WarriorAngel's post.

I think it should be included in the wiki that the purpose of this forum is for deeper fellowship and unity among apostolic christians.

Is there a wiki thread? This discussion should take place there.
I'll get one started

Alright, new wiki created here: http://www.christianforums.com/t5696227-wiki-apostolic-churches.html#post36706418

Palidan, can you edit it and paste your suggested rules into it?
Everyone else can jump into the 'discussion' area and start commenting on it, or editing it directly.

Have fun!
