I believe you statement is more accurate with the UPCI's opinion of the WPF. I have heard many times people in the WPF say that there are many good men left in the UPC. We can no longer walk in the same organization because of where it is going.
Bro. Booker still has UPCI preachers preach for him, as well as independent preachers. My father has preached for men in the UPC, WPF, and independents. I have attended UPCI sponsored events. I have even visited UPCI churches. This is not a new thing, and will continue to be done where ever we may find brethren to fellowship with.

Wish this were true here, my daughters and a couple of friends went to a UPC event and all of them recieved the Holy ghost and were baptized in Jesus name there. when they returned one friend of 6 years went to a WPF church down the street by invitation. Now, 1year later, she tells my daughters they are not saved because they "talk" to other kids in school who are not in church. We have invited her to come to a function, youth rally , or any service (since their service is not the same time as ours). Her answer is always the same, 'Your church does not preach the truth".
Its sad really. and Im not sure it will ever be repaired.

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter
