-
Why do some Apostolic churches insist on strict holiness standards such as dress codes, hair regulations, and lifestyle restrictions? Are these biblically grounded or culturally shaped?

Were the apostles real historical figures who physically followed Jesus, or are they legendary founders constructed by early Christian communities to legitimise faith narratives?

-
Romans 10:17 states, “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word (Rhema) of Christ.” Does this mean that faith is built specifically by Rhema words, as distinct from general Scripture (Logos)?
-
Is Logos in Scripture equivalent to the entire written Bible, with Rhema being a part of it applied specifically, as often taught in Charismatic theology?
-

-
Many other religions claim to receive personal words or guidance from deities or spirits. How is the Christian concept of Rhema different, and what grounds are there for regarding it as true compared to such claims?
-
Does reliance on subjective Rhema words undermine rational, critical thinking in the Christian life, and how should faith and reason be integrated in this context?
