Today, I believe OR Fauss is sitting in heaven having a good chuckle with God about his foolishness. And maybe a bit of a cry too.

He was respected in the UPC as one of the greats, but his preaching was spiritual abuse to me as a child. But, hey that was the method in those days.

Amen, you can have your judgment now or later.

1Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

Never heard the man preach myself. My heart goes out to the family.

Re: O.R. Fauss has went home to be with the Lord

He preached some himself, in his Monday night Celebration of Life, (by video), and it was the typical style that he is so known for. It was a great service. Bobbie Shoemake sang, and her hair may have turned gray but she can still sing! Rev. Jerry Jones (General Secretary of the UPCI), did a great job ministering to a house full.

One of the great lines of the night was the Rev. Ken Gurley, District Supt of the South Texas District, telling about a sunset in Key West Florida. As the sun cleared the horizon everyone began to clap. Someone asked why the clapping. The response was, "You just witnessed another successful sunset!" A great metaphor!
