and yes I have asked some black oneness members why they will not attend UPC churches, care to guess what answer they gave me??

I came to the Lord in a church where the Pastor was white but most of the members were black.
Yeah I don't buy that.

In my church under my old Pastor, we went door knocking..it wasn't a "white" Neighborhood...because there is no such thing here. Knocked on this door and a black lady answered. When we told her which church she commented that she drove by all the time and didn't know her kind was welcomed there. She just assumed it.

Our Pastor did not send us out and tell us that if a black person answers to just say we got the wrong house.
