UPCI Haters...

As I read through various posts and threads, I see and can feel an underlying hatred for all things UPCI.

If a UPCI preacher or church has a problem, it's reported by some with glee.

What's up with that?

The UPCI has done more to publish the only saving Apostolic message than any other organization.

Millions of dollars have been collected and spent by the UPCI to reach almost every corner of the globe.

One God - One Message - One Church

Re: UPCI Haters...

I don't hate the UPCI, and I have family involved in it. And if a UPCI preacher or church has a problem, I, personally, don't have a feeling of glee.

What bothers a lot of people (including myself) is the attitude of exclusivity that runs rampant within the organization.

In the arena of teaching Oneness and Acts 2:38 as the original plan of salvation I applaud the UPC. It was reading some of their tracts in the late 70's that helped me understand these important truths.

Happy taht the UPCI was able to help you.

Was wondering about the bolded.

Is that to say there is another "plan of salvation"?

I'm not judging them. Unfortunately, exclusivity tends to plague many denominations in some form. But I've found it to be strong in the UPCI. Again, not judging, just saying what I've seen. I think there's a lot of great history in the UPCI.
