Re: My Story
By the way, navy, my comment regarding the rabbit hole, if you read it in context, was directed toward the AOG organization in regards to stance on doctrine and the godhead...
I'm sorry for your experience. Seems like this kind of stuff is happening more and more in our circles.
Horrible.

I'm a conservative UPC'er, but I have to say it's went on for a long time. With the advent of the Net it's coming out more and more. I've just been lucky that I haven't been pastored by such people. Shepards are supposed to trim the sheep, not skin them. You skin them they can't grow hair.

Exactly! I'm very fortunate to have the Pastor that I have now.
The dude can pull me in the office, chastise me, correct me and rebuke me on things, yet still make me feel like a million bucks when I walk outta there.
The man is a Pastoral genius in my opinion.

Re: My Story
I served 25 years in the US Navy and have been a man in authority and a man under authority so get being corrected or rebuked I understand and to me that shows concern for my soul but the trying to control someone is not cool or biblical. Just because your first name is Pastor.

Yes, you are fortunate. Very fortunate.
Be careful though. God may call your pastor to a different location...maybe even into missions. You may get another pastor that is not as kind or has as much charisma as he.

If my Pastor goes anywhere, it'll be to heaven lol. He's 76 and already done his missions work overseas.
Now that I think of it, I'm still waiting to see the six documentary films he made :O.

Very well then. If he goes to heaven, you will still get another pastor regardless. 
My hope is that your next pastor won't be like what some of us had.

I wouldn't sit under a pastor like some of you have had, to be honest...

I believe many people who believe the doctrine would go back if they weren't already "skinned" and filleted.
