The upci chokes vision out of its preachers. For every visionary such as Mangun, Tenney, and Haney there are dozens who try to kill the vision. There are many others in the organization with vision, but they have been beaten down by the vision killers. Unfortunately the organization has too many vision killers to become a potent force for the Kingdom.

The Lord will take care of it in His time though.

Why wouldn't they consider this "failure" as the AOG not having the truth instead of using it as an example.

This just gets sillier and sillier.

He would not get money from it, it is free to do so and there is no make up involved.
Its not wrong, its just there are some not so bright people making dumb choices.

Nothing can beat the ethnic cleansing of the 1992 affirmation statement.

The Assemblies of God is not perfect, but they have done rather well with television.

I am surprised that it is not allowed. Think of all the people in the hospital it could reach. Also they show church services over and over throughout the week. So you have many opportunities in a week for someone to catch you service.
