And that would be a nice quiet General Conference with very little if any contraversy!

YEA UPCI!

Cause the disgruntled to have a reason to leave, and that is only what can result!

It is a pretty scary thing to see those 2 phrases put together in one statement.

Emerging from what? The church has been here for two thousand years. We just need to be a part of the book of Acts church........and be very careful about falling into false doctrine.

The church has been around for 2000 years... but not in the same form. Not practiced with the same side dressings & trappings.

Indeed we do need to be a part of the book of Acts church and let everything outside of the writings of the apostles be up to the individual group. The emerging church doesn't have a doctrine to worry about.

The emerging church is more about the way people meet... the way we look at building the church (not buildings...the church... people) etc. The doctrine...just like other "types" of churches is strictly up to those who are putting their effort into the work.

To shun away from the emerging church as oneness folks all we accomplish then is allow this new form of outreach (or should I say newly revisited old form of outreach) to be dominated by those who are not oneness.

We then find ourselves conceding an entire method of outreach to those who do not know or promote this gospel.

Do you know what the amendment to Resolution 4 was? (It was amended: http://www.unitedpentecostal.net/GC2...s_Meeting2.asp)

And do you know for sure what the other resolutions were? I knew that at least one was supposed to be added.

my understanding of res 4 is that it allows a dist. sup to send a representative instead of going himself, to a church that is disaffiliating.
