Well, I will play my card too. This is not about advertising on tv to win the lost. It is a preacher feeling justified that either already has a tv, or plans to get one. It has nothing to do with souls. The Resolution does not even open up for a preacher to get a tv, so are all You preachers that have them in your home gonna follow the government that you have chosen to agree to and get rid of them??
Your counter argument is an example of the extreme????? You're saying that it is a chess game of sorts, and you know their intentions 3 or 4 moves in advance!

I don't doubt that there are some on the fringe that are looking for your mentioned excuse, but I honestly believe that you are waaaaaay off base here stating the objective for the majority of supporters of TV advertising.

piano,

Do you really think that most of the churches within the UPCI can even afford the camera, much less any airtime??

Honestly, The initial resolution, if I am correct, sought to take out the tv ban completely. This is the ultimate aim of the pro-tv supporters. When it did not pass, they can back with a "less intrusive" resolution, but the wording left it too open still. Now we going to see a resolution that only allows for advertisement. But my question is, if the initial push was for removal, have they given up on it, or are they just working that way, easing it in a little at a time.

IS Christ Church on TV??

This resolution is not for churches who can't afford to be on TV anyways! It is to allow the churches that have the budget and the burden to do so.

Christ Church videotapes all of their services. I believe they are streamed on the internet. Thus far, they have not had a regular TV program.

They did make a 30 minute infomercial about the church which ran a few times late at night.
