Court Jester??? I should be running this place, if ya'll had any sense. Besides, he's probably just another current member who's bored today and created another ID.
that's a fantastic idea. Let me get with my people...

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths
Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945

hlihl365 must not have looked at the poll results.
BTW there are UPCs that use real wine for communion
Indeed I am aware of that. I also understand a few decades ago it was standard protocol to serve both wine and grape juice for communion at events such as General conference.
I have had wine for communion at Pentecostal Churches several times, though I don't think they were UPC at the time.

Well, you'd be in a better position to comment on mind-altering drugs, than I.
Not really, we practice those "drug-free" OOBEs!

Didn't go to church anywhere last night...just stayed home and sat in the stillness of the evening visiting with the wife. About 11:00, as the wife prepared the elements, I waited for her to take her chair at the table as I turned to Matthew 26.
The elements prepared, I slowly read the whole chapter while tears fell upon the pages of this precious, precious book. I lost it completely when I read about the disciples totally forsaking him at the time of his arrest. They fled away leaving him alone. That was almost more than I could stand.
I managed to finish the chapter after which she and I took the Lord's supper. With our hearts filled with love and thanksgiving, we slowly moved away from the table and spent the next hour or so in the deepest of prayer and worship.
"Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness to the children of men!"

And while you were doing that we were watching Steve Martin on Netflix ("I was raised a poor black child!"). To each his own I guess.
