I know of a OP who refered to "whores" about 15 times in a sermon, knowing that an ex-whore was sitting on the 3rd pew. She eventually went back to Jehovah Witness. It has been my experience that they/we have more argument and controversy than the Charismatics.

They do not fight/have church splits/won't talk to brothers (even blood relatives) over the most stupid things; facial hair, cutting hair, wearing pants, wearing a watch, wearing a wedding band, wearing a necklace.

I befriended a young preacher boy, 22, who is going to UPC and taking there ministers home training course, his own uncle (a OP, who pastors a church in the boys town) will not let the boy preach in his church because he is going to the UPC. I heard the boy and honestly he is the best preacher I have heard in years. His uncle said he could testify from the pew but could not be on the plateform. There are 5 oneness churches in his county. They will not fellowship with each other and all preach against all the others!!!

Is this an extreme example. Sadly No, I think it is typical. And it goes both ways, UPC is just as bad. When I was first starting to preach I was in Nash. area. I was told by a UPC that I could not come to his church and preach because I was not UPC. I politely told him that Peter was the "foundation apostle" and he was not UPC, therefore under those terms he would not be welcome in his UPC church either.

Why? I don't know and I don't understand it?

All too common for sure. I see this in my town there are many churches of the same faith oneness in a 5 mile area and they don't even talk to one another hardly. We kill people in our own family tree cause they ain't us. It is a sick, sick thing.
