Re: Mark Johnston Drops from UPCI, Garner Next???
I've been out of UPCI for about 4 years now, never was licensed. But I can assure you that this post was the saddest and closest to home that I've read in a long time! Thank you, Mizpeh!

If this doesn't describe not only the UPCI, but the OP movement as a whole, I just don't know what does. Let's get back to the basics, folks. And by "basics," I don't mean all the stuff we add to the gospel.
Jesus said, "Go make disciples." He didn't say make converts and indoctrinate them with the dogma and tradition of our sect.

Amen. I feel the same and also used Garrison Keillor recently to make that point...

I hear great things about MJ but if this video clip is his usual speaking style I would last about 5 minutes in a service with him preaching. What is it with the screaming? Why do preachers think they have to do that to be powerful and effective or "annointed"? Arghhhh!!!!!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

How thankful I am that I was delivered from doing this!!
One of the funniest things to do would be to stand up in front of our church and preach like this. They would look at me as if I were from Mars.
