Brother, look you are trying to imply that Elder CS, is trying to decieve his people? The Elder is not doing that at all and what he is doing is not discussing the Conference information over his pulpit. If someone was to ask about the voting issues he would share information to answer any questions.
This is what he has stated in numerous posts in this thread. There are two UPCI churches in this area who have people in their congregations who don't even know that the UPCI even has any rulings pro or con against television.
What do you do with that situation? "Oh, by the way, we now are allowed to view television." Pastors, elders, and ministers in the UPCI teach their people whatever is on their hearts to teach, and it has always been that way. I think trying to make an issue of this subject, is trying to close the stable door after your horse has left.

Have to tell what? What does anyone have to tell, or have not to tell? The Elder will preach and teach everything that he has always taught and he has never indoctrinated his people to be UPCI. They are taught to be Apostolic One God people, period. The Elder holds the card, and they are shouting and speaking in tongues lead by Jesus Christ, and never even caring about The Pentecostal Hearald, or even seeing a copy of the Forward.

The Elder already made it known on this forum that he is not holding anything back and if asked he would present his answer. Seems pretty simple.
