From reports "on the ground" it appears that photographs were not allowed nor were "open laptops." The photos you saw were taken by a known "rascal" and his associate before being asked to refrain. No one was supposed to be photographed at the meeting except those on the platform.

Sort of like posting anonymously online. Only you have to use up some FF miles to get to Tulsa.

The attendance has been reported to be anywhere between 800 to 2000 preachers. Quite a range.

And the meeting was not about control. Huh! Men of God who have faithfully borne thier cross after Christ for decades, and skillfully weilded the Sword of the Spirit through many a hard fought battle, but they can't be trusted to use a Kodak or a Dell responsibly!

I guess this new tech stuff is a little tricky for us "ol' fashioned" apostolics.

Trusts its constituency? Apparently there is a reason for the term, hardliners.

Too funny!

I hope that the men in Tulsa find what they are looking for. While I commend anyone for standing up for what they feel is right, I still don't understand the need to form a whole new organization. Especially since like so many have said, the range of convictions are what they have always been. Some are liberal and some conservative. So why develop a new “Fellowship”. I spent many years in the Western District and it’s been like this for years. You knew which preachers were strict and you knew which ones were balanced in what they believed and preached. I don’t know that the WPF will be any different than the UPC. Only the leadership is different.

While the Tulsa event was going on, Landmark was going strong. I watched all 3 nights and was blessed by the character and the spirit of the men that spoke and ministered. Not one mention was made about the WPF and I knew that there wouldn’t be. The spirit of prayer, healing, and ministry was there and the messages were full encouragement to reach the lost.

I am still not sure what they stood up for? According to one poster, nothing was said about either TV or the UPCI, problems with both labeled as reasons for the Tulsa meeting in the first place.

Are they starting a new organization or aren't they? Is this an ultra-conservative fellowship or leaner, sleeker, version of the UPC?

The meeting is now over, and we are still unsure of what it all means. So much for a clear and certain sound.

If you go to the Worldwide Pentcostal Fellowship website you will see the Articles of Faith, Leadership, etc. guess that means they are a fellowship.

Absolutely. I think that was mentioned before you get to the end, where the AOF cover such topics as the sanctity of human life, Public School activities, marriage and divorce, and even religious holidays. Man, that's just like a real organization. At any rate it's pretty tedious stuff for a group that is just a loose fellowship of brothers loving each other.

So you went and are confused or didn't go and are confused?

If you went and are confused, that would be bothersome.

If you didn't go, if you had, maybe you wouldn't be so confused.

There was a photographer at the meeting, and it isn't unusual at events for others to refrain. It was recorded as well and cd's are available.

The spirit was without a doubt in the place. There was no mention of anti-leave the UPC at all. The messages were very encouraging and uplifting.
