Folks want healing? here is an idea, repent. get down on your knees and beg God to forgive you for being willing to allow the politics of the organizatoin to sour to this point. Don't make a demand that someone come to you and appologize. good grief what a nutty way of viewing things.

That is exactly what I meant! The division is not the two different groups going their different ways - the division is how the men are handling it.
Blaming each other and pointing fingers is what I feel God is disappointed in.

Nearly all special speakers at Christ Church are non-Pentecostal, much less conservative Pentecostals!!

If this is out of bounds forgive me I have no desire to offend you please. What about your grandchildren???????????? You and your wife have experienced the HGB doesn't it concern you that they might not ever hear or recieve it? Just say it is not necessary to be saved it is certainly necessary to live an overcoming life and the assistance in prayer? Again if this is too personal ignore it.

anyone who know anything about this(and I am an outsider) must surely know Res. 4 is not the reason it is the cataylist that pushed it over.

The issue isn't always the issue.

I have been trying to think of NT example of this, the only comparable one that would be close, is when Peter tried to seperate from the Gentiles to eat with his buddies and kin and was rebuked for causing division by Paul.

lol...comparing Oneness Pentecostals to the folks at the Tower of Babel is NOT NOT NOT NOT flattering! Good grief. Did Nimrod go with the UCs too?
The purpose of Babel also was to spread the human race around the world. If you can prove that this split will result in winning more souls or spreading more missionaries around the world, I'd love to see you try
