NEWS FLASH! The Cons getting cold Feet?????????????

( ( ( ( NEWS FLASH ) ) ) )


Just heard today that 2 Cons that had previously told their churches that if the resolution Passes, they were leaving UPC. WELL, on second thought, they have recanted this Idea and said they are not leaving after all !!!!!

WHY ????? well, from what i understand, they have been warned that other UPC churches would immediately be planted in their areas making such a decision a threat.

Did anyone see this coming ???? DO you think others will get cold feet ?

Thad you talk as if you can just send a preacher to an area where there's an existing Apostolic church and have a thriving work in a week?

Another thing what you're also saying is that anyone who is an independent is open game for an organization to open a work across the street?

I believe that we have enough sinners to go around and that we should have an Apostolic church on every corner. I love to see Brothers go forward and start works, but saying that if a pastor pulls out that they should be scared of a new work being started? I hardly think that would frighten any seasoned pastor.

you are right but it doesn't change the fact that some pastors would feel threatend by this especially if the UPC people are dyed in the wool UPC and start missing being apart of the mother ship.

The idea unfortunately within some Organizations and districts is; if it's not smoke from my chimney then there's no real fire. I actually had a district board ask me to go into a town and start a work across the street from a non-organization church just to compete with them. I refused, and later I met that pastor, and God had granted him great revival, incidentally he later joined the organization.
