Tw Barnes News Flash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Page 2

From what I understand, Bro. Barnes was a highly respected man.
His opinion on tv advertising should hold some weight.

I do not want to hijack this thread, but I have a question about the tv advertising subject.
Bro. S.R. Hanby (Mark's Dad) was an old timer who planted quite a few churches in his day. From what I understand, he was conservative when it came to "standards." I don't think he owned a tv or watched tv. I have heard somewhere (can't remember where) that he left the UPC over the issue of advertising on tv. I've heard that he was in favor of using tv and did not agree with the oganization's ban on using it. Can anyone verify this?

Sorry. Stuff like this gets old and is completely unproductive.

No apology necessary. I quite agree and appreciate your response.

Knwoing the opinions of dead men regarding present day situations does not serve a great purpose. Some purpose, yes. But in the whole scheme of things it means little.

The apostles are dead and I think people value their opinions (insert smiley here)

True enough. Daylight and dark though. They actually were used by God to write the Bible. In other words, God thought their thoughts had merit for all time.

Do you honestly equate a preacher's words to those in the Bible? Surely you see a major difference? Please tell me you see a difference.

Further, the discussion was centering around men's "
opinions." I do not personally believe the writings of the apostles were entirely their opinions, do you?
