I've known and have fellowshiped most of these men over the years. Love them all, but its not unusal for positions of leadership to effect people. Positions that they hold or fail to hold.

Who knows the heart? It seems that most of these men have held office or desired to hold office in the past. I think this whole thing is about power and control.

This new "fellowship" may afford them those opportunities.

Just my opinion.

Dora, he is one of the least hot headed people I know. Wayne McClain is absolutely one of the greatest Christians I have ever known.

The man is so good I have wondered if he is even real sometimes.

Re: Wayne McClain disaffiliates his church

Brother McClain conducted himself at all times as a gentleman, and no one can say that he ever created problems for Brother Kilgore or the leadership of the Texas District.

He didn't disaffiliate when he wasn't elected, and that has been years ago.

He disaffiliated when the UPC reversed a position that he felt strongly convicted about.

Re: Wayne McClain disaffiliates his church

Wayne McClain has conducted himself above reproach foras long as I have known him.

In ethics and kindness he is really almost in a class by himself.

I surely hope you aren't attempting to reflect negatively on him.

Re: Wayne McClain disaffiliates his church

It is very strange., Anybody who realty knows Bro McClain will say you would not find a better man of God.

Anyone who knows the Tulsa 6 will always tell you could not find better men.

I bet none of you personally know anything negative about any of these men yet you can criticize there action, call them names. They see something you don’t.

As time goes you are going to find a lot more Bro McCain’s out there that will become part of World Wide Pentecostal Fellowship.

After a year or so when the dust settles you are going to be shocked.

Then he must have affiliated in 1977?
