Of this I know....
One of the BIGGEST things that will happen is that there are MANY that will listen to the voice of AM, Ja, MW and RJ and will be more apt to vote if they know the standing of those they respect and mentor.

Remember....BOTT is THE most attended Ministers Only conference in the entire UPCI.

It is no mistake that it is lead by the names I mentioned.

IF it were a Western GC I would see the difference...but its not...its a eastern GC.
For votes...it is well known that geography makes a huge difference.

Sure seemed to last year when the vote was in the District in which the Resolution was authored.

Railroaded?? LOL! Railroaded.....


Say, I wonder how many voter qualified ministers are in Ohio? Seems to me there should have been enough to keep anything from being railroaded.

And the biggest was Rev. Harry Scism told a ministers meeting today that the reason they are so successfull on the foreign missions field are because they have very open relationships with the trinitarian churches.
He said they have very close fellowship with them and as a result have seen many churches rebaptized in Jesus Name. He added that the only way to reach North America is to start reaching out, be friending and even fellowshipping with the Trinitarians.

This dear man is highly respected and I know his words will carry alot of weight at this coming conference.

anyways.......there you have it.

That is downright funny.

One the one side the men are "bold." On the other side they are hard line UC railroad engineers.

Funny. I don't remember there being a bad spirit or a feeling of being railroaded at all. Neither did the majority evidently.


(Now, if you want to talk about railroading, let's talk about the move to bring it back up after a good amount of voters had left the floor.)
