Some AtlantaBishop thoughts.
If a Pastor in the UPC wants to advertise on TV - he will. It has been done, is being done and will be done.
You do not have the money or resources to put your church on TV on a regular basis.
"Christian" TV is VERY expensive and does not pay off for the pastor if he does not have GREAT PRODUCT to push.
There is way too much competition and you are NOT up to it!
If you are not a smart salesman - stay off.
If you go on TV - You WILL change your message.
If you go on TV - You WILL change the way you look.
Taping for TV changes the dynamics of a service. Hook up a video camera and start taping every Sunday morning and put it up on your screen - I can promise you it will change things.

I honestly could care less if the UPCI passes it or fails it, cause folks are gonna do what is in their heart no matter what. Those preachers that want a tv in their home already have one. Those that don't, do not. Those that want to advertise will do so whether it passes or not.
If one changes there look and message it wasn't TV that did it.
But I would say that Webcasting is the way to go. Then you have no need to change anything. It's your time and bandwidth do what you will.

you're being cynical, elder. Don't you think conviction can come over viewers of an apostolic message on tv? Anthony Mangun just reported last sunday that two people got the holy ghost through his webcast service. I tune in to his webcast and have felt the HG in my home while tuning in to his webcast. The same can happen over tv, just like you can feel the annointing with audio cassettes.

Surely you know that the Internet is still pure but the Television airwaves are filthy, computers are righteous but those ol' TV's are devil boxes..........[TIC]
Has anyone here heard of anyone receiving the Holy Ghost while listening to a sermon on tape?

Judgment begins at the House of God and since neither are saved it doesn't matter. Their marriage is not their problem it is their birth. They need to be born again like the Bible teaches.
Doesn't matter? You mean there are different rules for sinners and saints? More rules for saints, in fact? What are the sinners' rules? You know, the rules they break to make them sinners?
Oh yeah. They were born sinners. Never mind.

I said this earlier in a jest, but it could be true.
I can just see it now.............that tv program of that church in my city with 30 members shockamooing all over the tv screen as the song leader sings "Keep On The Firing Line". I feel inspired just thinking of the possibilities.

All are sinners who have NOT obeyed the gospel and yes she would be committing adultery however when she is born again her record is wiped clean. Baptism in Jesus Name REMITS ALL past sins.

I pray they DO NOT come on in Atlanta - its embarrassing enough the nuts that are on now! VOTE IT DOWN!
There was a radio station down by your ole buddy in Ky. and all Sunday it was one Pentecostal after another and you did NOT need a televsion for entertainment I am still teeling stories about those broadcasts and to see them??? It was funny enough to hear them.
Jerry & Arnold on Television or the late Bishop Chambers and the Perfect Church.

I see. Thanks for clarifying.
