WPF in talks with Philippines UPC

Reports indicate that Bro. Steve Buxton, Bro. Johnny King, and Bro. Charles Harris are headed to the Philippines.

On Wednesday of this week, they are scheduled to meet with 50 Oneness Pastors in the Philippines that represent 30,000+ members (UPC?). These pastors are interested in the WPF and have expressed interest in being linked with it. According to Bro. Buxton, this would be "huge" for the WPF.

Is this what it's all about?

Well if it's true they said "you can join us and remain UPC" then I would say so

Millions in the Phillipines have never heard the Gospel. Some islands haven't ever been evangelized. And the WwPF response to this is more recruiting of other OP's. Will positions on a new "World Council" be offered?

If true, this is sickening, and should open the eyes of some that have aligned themselves with WPF already.

Re: WPF in talks with Philippines UPC

... I just notice the original poster's statement that the trip is to contact 50 pastors from the Philippines... If it's really just fifty, the amount of people these men could gather would not even reach 5,000. So forget the 30,000 figure. Filipino oneness apostolic churches averages at only 80 attendees...

Well, I know for a fact that Bishop C. Harris is going to be here in Manila (not sure if it's last week or this week) as he has personally PMed me about it at one of the other apostolic forums. But I'm not really sure if it's the same man of God that Minister_WD and I are talking about as I do not really know Bishop C. Harris except for a few exchanges of PMs.

I do hope that if it's for the glory of God, may their trip be safe and fruitful... And that if it's a little "off-path" within God's will, may God grant them wisdom as I do believe that these guys are true men of God also...

Re: WPF in talks with Philippines UPC

I know of a good independent work there that has been there for nearly 40 years. They have a beautiful headquarters church and bible school and teach a high standard of holiness and very solid on Apostolic doctrine. I know the missionary and many brethren who have been there through the years. This group is not going to become part of the WPF.

Bro. Epley, would you be so kind to perhaps name this church?
