The difference between most of the PCI men of that day and the ones who claim it today is in their emphasis and choice of fellowship.
Men like Oscar Vouga chose to throw their lot in with those who strongly promoted the New Birth message, such as PAJC men.
Many of the ones who claim to believe the PCI doctrine today use it as a basis for breaking fellowship with strong Apostolic preachers, and prefer rather to fellowship with those who don't even believe all that similarly.
This is a big difference.
You can't compare the men like Vouga who preached the New Birth with fervor and passion to these glorified Baptists today who have more in common with easy-believism preachers than with Apostolic men who will declare the whole counsel of God.
Nobody said Oscar Vouga had horns, or was a bad man.
But he was a different breed than a lot of the characters who claim to represent his position.

LOL!! I was trying to make a point, Elder...sorry...
But now I have a question...
As a layperson I am wondering, respectfully...you stated that many PCI folks use doctrine as a basis for breaking fellowship.
But who broke away from whom if they were pushed into the proverbial corner, or am I not understanding how it went?
