Re: UPC doctrinal contradiction
It's been murky for a long time (remission/forgiveness) I still hear the thing about "forgiveness occurs at repentance" and "remission occurs at baptism" which of course does not acknowledge the fact the terms are used interchangeably at times.
About the "no creeds" position - it is likely fostered by the refusal to accept the Nicene creeds and others like it. Perhaps, they should publish the UPCIAOF "creed" along with it's development from the merger and other subsequent changes.
