Perhaps he just disaffiliated the church?

Doing so would have ramifications for Life.

2) UPCI webmaster is part-time, and needs to log in to AFF more for current news.

Well, it would require a vote for one ...

and as you stated ... such a move can lead to other things.

By voting to disaffiliate, a church shows the pastor it stands with him, and is in lockstep with his direction.

And please, will someone tell me what water and spirit doctrine is? Thats a new one for me.

Perhaps it would be best to confirm the info before AFF's minions dissect the situation?

There was no church split although there were several families stirring up trouble.

Hope that helps.

... I think some speculation was offered about disaffiliation and/ or turning in a license.. and according to this ... you have confirmed that this is exactly what is happening ...

There are many reasons to disaffiliate ... I have a hunch there will be more to this.

This is a pillar church of the org ... nothing to sneeze at if Life does make such a decision, imo.

Sorry DA a couple corresponded via PM.

BTW...I am with on the outcome.
