I have always said I think a Oneness ministerial organization that is just that and not concerned about conformity in standards, etc would appeal to moderate and liberal Oneness ministers and could be a success.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

I'm concerned that GNCM is trying to cast off any distinction between the trinity and oneness views. Embracing Joel Osteen demonstrates a lack of discernment.

This old-time Assembly of God preacher would set them straight.

I thought that is what Global was meant to be. Are they letting any doctrinal distinction fade? I mean, if they are attracted to Joel Osteen, then something is terribly wrong. Would there be no room for a more conservative message like that preached by David Wilkerson or even by Swaggart before his fall? Would an old-time AG preacher like the one I posted in the videos above be welcome at GNCM?

I hope that someone can give me some insight here .
