Where do you get that from? And did the early Pentecostals view that as heresy? Did they merge with heretics?

Like I said, they used wisdom and gave the others time to come to the truth of acts 2:38 and allowed the soirit of God to work in their lives. I couldn't have done it, personally, and I have a great amount of admiration for those who had patience to fellowship with those who still needed to come to the truth.

Where are you getting this from? Historical record? Eye witness?

Are you sure you are in the FULL truth? What if you are just one of those in-betweeners? A little more progressed than those heretic PCI'ers, but still not fully arrived? I mean, is there a possibility?

It doesn't seem very possible today in the UPC does it?
