Brother Daniel, my own opinion is this, when we look at reformations that have happened in history they are full of splits from organizations and even when they leave their mother organization they tend to have splits and schisms within their newly formed groups. Is AWCF and NCO trying to find more ministers I would say of course. Should anyone have a problem with them trying to get men from an already existing organization? There should be no problem with that either. Why do I say that? Because if anyone can recruit members from the UPCI then those men who leave were already thinking of leaving regardless of the organization. If anyone is disgruntled they need to go to the conference floor and work that out with those they are in fellowship with. Number one the conference floor is the place to take care of the business of their organization. If every Brother involved would stand up in LOVE, and work this whole issue out we will have the greatest revival the planet will ever see!

of course, and there has been others who have come before them who anticipated the UPCI having a split and even boasted that their newly formed organization would bloom from the exodus, alas, my Bible says where the Eagles Gather there the dead body lies, so the
Gathering of Eagles came and went. Are the men awaiting a Moses, a Joshua? They will not find that in Pastor Kenneth Phillips, and Brother Suber. Please don't get me wrong Brother Daniel, I am not being unkind to these men, I'm just saying that what the UPCI needs in September is to hunker down and get their problem worked out. JUST AS THE HOLY GHOST would like.

I have no information concerning that rumor. In time it will be proven either true or false.

What effects? Pastor Kenneth Phillips and Brother Suber, I wish them well.
I myself have issue with any form of Dominion Theology. I have Brothers who are Dominionist and have good friends who are Word Made Flesh doctrine.
I hardly think anyone who is a student of the Word can be comfortable within the Dominionist teaching. Although time will prove all things. I hope these men pray thousands through to the Holy Ghost with evidence of tongues and baptize millions in Jesus name for the remission of sins. I also hope that all goes well in the United Pentecostal Church International, AWCF, ALJC, and the others who have a love for souls and
Acts 2:38.
In Jesus name
