My assembly of 70 or so, is part of GOD's church, a family who worships together due to the lack of an apostolic assembly is part of GOD's church. GOD's church is all over the world in pockets and places we may not expect it to be. I am not saying the UPC is out of GOD's Church, but it has a different structure than the Bible permits it to have. Might this be as the servant who knew the masters will, did it not, and was beaten with many stripes? Might a UPC church member who knows no better be the servant who didn't know HIS will and was beaten with few stripes? I don't want the LORD to have to beat or judge me. I want to be careful, I want to judge myself, and thereby spare GOD's judgement on me, and I want my assembly to do the Master's will, so that we can prevent the beating with the stripes. It seems some see the error they are in, and they figure- "GREAT, well, at least I'm saved, and I may be a bit out of order, but I'll still make it to Heaven, and just get have to go through a quick rebuking of JESUS, but that's a whole lot easier than changing things from how they've always been."

GOD BLESS!

Brother,

You apparently have some views that I don't share; however, I won't enter into a debate over those views. There have been more than a few on this forum who have engaged you in such discussions to no avail.

I attend a UPC church because that was where God lead me after much prayer. I trust that you could respect that decision.

God bless you,

Brother, it's not about debating, it's about iron sharpening iron. As for views we don't share, that's where we have oppurtunity to discuss and see why we don't share the same views, and if there can be a way for us all to speak the same thing.

GOD BLESS!
