It's for this reason I always say I attend a UPC but I am not "UPC", because it's really a paid members club

True dat. The UPC is a ministerial association, thus a members only club of sorts. Technically, as you say, if you don't have a card you're not "UPC".

So UPCI isn't really a church. So the C should be in quotes.

UP"C"I

And how united is it, really?

"U"P"C"I

Is it really Pentecostal? I betcha some would say no!

"U""P""C"I

Now. That leaves the I. International? Well, it does have a foreign missions department. And some of its districts are in Canada. OK. Keep the I!

I wonder what if any affect this can have on the over all health and number of the UPC to have an alienated class of people who are tithing to support such a group but have no voice whatsoever nor even a passive participation...knowing a lot of things are done in secret.

I remember reading somewhere that the P.A.W. is also a Ministerial Alliance, I think brother Horace Smith actually said something like that. The concept of a "Ministerial Alliance" is alien to me though...

It is the doctrine of inclusion.

Adam, have you been to the prayer room and walked through the replica of the tabernacle? I was curious how that turned out.

[Encryptus]

Perhaps that is where the subversive emergents are having their secret meetings?
