Like you, I lost my dad (1998) so mother was all we had left. It's horrible to lose a father, but it's a whole other thing to lose a mother. I guess it's that last link to childhood and the reality of being an adult...cherish your time with her....

We took care of mama for a year before she passed. Fortunately for me my wife was there to help do the bathing and other personal things, but we both helped brush out her hair. When one is bedridden that is a full time job. But I'll tell you what when you make that final walk by the casket you can do it know that you did all for them that you could.

With all due respect, there are still men who ask their church members to abstain from watching television and worldliness in the UPCI.

If you leave for these reasons alone, you're going to be disappointed in 20 years should the Lord tarry.

So you are saying that UPC isn't following the scriptures essential to salvation?

Don't you just mean that there are some that aren't holding to some of the man-made rules that aren't essential to salvation?

I don't think UPC has changed anything on their beliefs on salvation.

I believe that holiness and separation are essential to salvation and are scriptural.

I completely agree. The thing that made this forum so interesting to me was the debate about how conservative and how liberal the church should be. The issues are different, but the same types of debate are going on in the Assemblies of God right now.

The boundary lines are being changed and there are major differences of opinion, disagreements and politics currently. So true that the one constant is always people.

Mike are you assemblies of God? I am not so no expert on their issues but this is what i thought about AG:
A) They don't fellowship each other much and everyone sort of minds their own business
B) They left the dress code many years ago so it's no longer an issue except for a few isolated churches in small rural areas.
C) most of them have heard of Oneness but few know about the UPC

Mark as far as my church, we have strong small group ministires(beyond Sunday School!!) that allow us build relationships in a large church. I guess that would depend on each individual church.

Dress isn't an issue at all in 95% of our churches. My church is much more conservative than most. A woman would definitely feel out of place in dress slacks in my church. Most other Assembly of God churches that I've been in the last year are "come as you are". I'm conflicted about this issue greatly. It's been an issue of much prayer for me.

I agree that the majority of our members have heard of oneness. Bro. and Sis. McGruder have ministered in our church many times. Also, Bro. Allan Oggs ministered two or three times. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of many UPC churches in our area. I know of one and have enjoyed friendships with people from that church, but UPC doesn't have a great visibility in Western Arkansas.

The issues being debated now in our fellowship are things such as initial physical evidence(how sad that's being debated), necessity of altar calls, style of music(songs and goofy stuff like strobe lights), the lack of younger ministers being credentialed, the retention of people once they make a public profession of Christ and are baptized, and the left wing heresy like gold dust and other such junk.

It seems that either these men do not realize the depth of hurt, division, ill feelings and overall harm to the body of Christ that is certain to come. If they do realize it, then it must be said that either they do not care or they fiendishly relish the destruction.

Actually, though it may shock some. I support these brethren to make their choice to leave. I don't believe that they are throwing a pity party, picking up their marbles and going home, etc, etc.

I think that they really belive that the UPCI is headed in a wrong direction and TV is just the straw that broke the camel's back.

It is their right to take this action, The UPCI isn't the body, it is a group of guys who had a common cause and doctrine working together. If that common cause changes to the point that there is strife and division. Mybe then it is time to move on.

This shifting of orgs isn't exactly new in the apostolic movement.

Sure it's their right to leave. I don't think anybody would contest that. What's being questioned is:


the motive for forming a new organization


the fact that they're actively soliciting others to join them knowing that they're creating and adding to division


the question about how they're going to be any different than the body they've been part of - some of them - all their ministry or possibly all their lives


and what kind of spin-off effect it's going to have ultimately.


Sure, it's their right to do whatever they want, but people get caught up in issues and lose sight and focus.

I'd love to know what on earth "wrong" direction the UPC is headed and how this new group if it ever does actually get off the ground is going to be any different.

Yes, they have the RIGHT. It is still a free America.

However, you may not be acquainted with the deep, deep, division and destruction that follows these actions as I am, having seen it first hand. I started a thread on that subject a couple of weeks ago. I don't remember the name but it is something like "I've seen it all before, now again."

What i was referring to as far as fellowship, i was talking about with other churches in your area or state,not so much within your local church.The UPC and Oneness are still big on fellowshipping with various churches within a District.

If my church was debating initial physical evidence,I'd be a goner for sure.
what's the point of even calling yourself Pentecostal? What do you think of the UPC and their beliefs?

as far as pants, the UPC and most conservative branches of Oneness Pentecostals have a No pants policy. We strongly believe in a seperation of the sexes both in demeaner and in dress. one without the other is part of the hidden ingredient that's leads a society to ruination. the proof is what we are seeing today in the decay of culture.
Pants is a hotly debated issue here because many here use to be Pentecostal but left their Roots and have gone Charismatic

Because I do. They aren't being silly and juvenile, they are being true to their convictions.

I see it differently...

well my brother and I have been put in a postion where we are having to bathe my mother,comb her hair,do her laundry,everything since she fell and broke her hip.

Your mom is blessed to have good sons. Of course you guys were blessed to have a great mother also!

Tell her I am still praying for her recovery and I will always remember and cherish her prayers for my son while he was in Iraq.

I have told my mom that I hope my children love me and care about me as much as I do her.

We're blessed and the Lord has really lifted her up. when my dad died she started giving up. just a few months afterwards, she fell and broke her hip and then she wouldnt get out of bed. The doctor told her if she didn't try she end up a invalid and that's all she needed to hear. she is still pretty feeble but gets around and is sharp in her mind. She would have to be in a convalecent home but we're determine that will not happen to her

I will let her know what you said. I remember telling her about your son and she felt such a burden and really sought the Lord. she has always been a prayer warrior and operates in the spirit(never announced it but just a fact).

The church brought over a birthday cake for her today and i just scarffed down a couple of pieces of it. it was good! has fresh berries and pudding inside.

Wow, that's been a long time. I tell people all the time to ask all the questions the you would ever want to ask, write down all the memories you want to remember. We just never know, people we love can be gone in a moment...

It is to me... sorry.


It's silly and juvenile in my opinion

Bro Ronzo,

Could this be a case of "I'm sick of this discussion of Tulsa and can't stand anymore of it, but I'm going to check back in to see what is being said so I can respond to what is being said?"

Just wondering.

You are not allowed to express an opinion and yes you are to only post one comment per thread and leave that thread for good.

At least you will have plenty of time for other pursuits!!:shocked:

Will we have live updates from the floor?

I'm thinking probably not, as the technology involved would not be on the map to a holier apostolic future.

Only if you are over 18. Then your minutes have to be monitored by your pastor. :shocked:

LOL!!! I could just see the church having to hire a new staff member to wade through the many pages of all of the members cell phone bills to see who they are calling.

A pastor could allow the internet and just require that all members install keystroke tracking software and print out a report each month for him to review.

That should appeal to those pastors who direct which house and cars saints shoudl buy,etc.

Tulsa, tulsa, tulsa.......

If they really wanted a turn out, they need to realize that all MAJOR conferences are held in Vegas!

"ATTENTION! Major meeting to determine a NEW direction for the Apostolic movement! Sign up for May 1 - 5, 2008 at the Mirage hotel, Las Vegas!"

Yes it has been a long time, I was just a teenager. It was not a long drawn out illness so it was a shock to say the least.
That is a great idea and also to keep pictures in a safe place.
