Tonight, Coonskinner, in listing factors for why he thinks the movement has drifted left stated:
Quote:
The overwhelming and somewhat arrogant, in my opinion, obsession with the idea that the UPC must "reach the world." We have gotten so drunk on this 180 proof liquor called "Revival" that we have forgotten to preach much else at our meetings.
I believe in revival if I believe in anything--I believe we are called to be witnesses. But this idea that God has to have us (the UPC) to reach the world for Him is killing us.

....that ought to be enough to get me tried, convicted and sentenced for now.

In clarifying this first statement, he said:
Quote:
The "reach the lost at any cost" mentality is what I am talking about.
The idea that inflates human egos to the point that they have to improve on God's methods for soulwinning.
