The most obvious was that they leaned PCI, as did most of the NW at the time-although Oregon and Washington was changing rapidly.
The other reason was his eschatology. He teaches that "no man knows" the day or the hour of the Lord's return and uses the words of the greatest authority in the New Testament-the Lord Jesus Himself- to prove his point. That didn't sit well with the Foreign Missions Board, choosing to align themselves with Zionists, Scofield-believers, Baxter and Treece.

Well I don't want to seem to be trying to hinder a move of God. I do pray for the nations and a few weeks back prayed for Burma and Thailand.
Nonetheless the original poster made an issue about these two things.
PCI doctrine. Believe me I have never been in the UPC so it has nothing to do with their politics. But as far as 3 step vs 1 step which he made an issue of I do think it is error.
Not that God cannot move in that. That's the way I came in myself. Everyone begins with faith. I have ministered and fellowshipped with many kinds believers, many Trinitarians.
Issue two he brought up was to link, Zionist, Schofield and Post trib together as if its all one thing. So I don't think its promoting a move of God to denounce and lump together as one these groups in order to then promote preterism.
If it had just been about people being saved in Thailand I would not have questioned it but rather rejoiced. Peace, Michael.
