Re: The Grace to leave and be gone...

If I stand against error I always want to make sure am I standing for truth against error or is this personal vendetta? Do I condemn in my enemies what I condone in my friends that is the test of truth?

Some how Br. if one speaks out against false doctrine you are declared bitter and that you have a vendetta. I know you were not referring to me but this is what one is confronted with when they speak out. The UPCI is not my enemy. I have many friends and relatives that still go to or belong as ministers. When I confront them with only those that obey acts 2:38 completely and believe that it is necessary will be in heaven. I am told you shouldn't judge.
As I watched a small portion of Kennith Haney's message last night I heard him say that those in the UPCI should be strong on doctrine. I wonder, which doctrine was he talking about? Acts 2:38, friends of the bride, saved at repentance and last but not least the light doctrine? All of these doctrine are believed and taught one way or another in the UPCI.
I know there are some churches that still believe the 3 step message. We are judged by the company we keep.

Believe me I am not bitter I have nothing to be bitter about. I left over truth not some problem. I love the truth and as long as I have breath I will speak out against false doctrine.

God bless the UPCI and Br. Haney and...
God bless the WPF and Br. J. Godair!

Both organizations need prayer and Gods guidance.

Perhaps this post wasn't meant in your direction?
I too believe in Repentance, Water Baptism in Jesus name & the Infilling of the Holy Ghost is nessecary for Salvation.
I am still in a UPCI Church.

Go back and read the first post.
