W T Witherspoon assistant General Superintendent of the UPC wrote "they that have not been taught concerning the Bible New Birth but have thoroughly repented and lived what they know of the Christian life will be on the right hand at the white throned Judgment..." and will be "Delegated to the Kingdom prepared from the foundation of the world".

It really would have been nice if this could have been included in the historical review of this great man. Without it a reader might get a false impression and see the man as far more sectarian than he really was.
Bishop Haywood, Bro. S.G. Norris, and Bro. Frank Curts all taught that those who lived in all the light they had would receive eternal life at the Great White Throne Judgment.

Where did you get that quote from that I have bolded in your post?
