**** Are the NCO and AWCF "raiding" the UPCI or providing a "safety net"? ****

Does anyone think that the decision by NCO leaders to befriend the AWCF was calculated?

Boy you have so many things working at counter purposes here.

On one hand you certainly do have a good number of men in the UPCI that probably agree more with KP than they do the UCs in the UPCI.

on the other hand, these men, while not extrememly conservitive, believe in Seperation. AWCF and NCO doesnt have a care in the world about seperation.

then there is the Ethopian issue. it cannot be seperated from the discussion. Some inclined to NCO will hold back because they still see DF as heracy.

it is very interesting though.

The fact that they are content to fellowship rank heresy speaks volumes about their foundation and intent.

Example: Resolution 3 would make events like this at a UPCI church like that of Glenn Purvis in Conyers, Georgia a "no-no" if a district board officially places WH on their in questionable list.

Shameless self promotion.

I can deal with Suber and Phillips, but that guy gets on my nerves.

I think we must realize that there are over 180 Oneness orgs in the AWCF ...

Among them is the True Jesus Church in China that believes that we must practice the Sabbath and that a baptism is not valid if its not performed in "living water" like a river, ocean or lake.

Yes, but here is the difference.

No one is required to agree or disagree with another member of the org. They simply agree to disagree, work together to accomplish things they do agree on, and live and let live.

That is in stark contrast to every other twentieth century organizational mode of operation.

Do you think this would ever happen under the watch of the UCs?
