I can agree with that. I try not to throw around stereotypes Praxeas, but give specific experience. I know that not all UPC churches or districts match my experience, but I think there are specific doctrines espoused by the organization itself that are damaging and where I can connect those to my experience I will give my testimony of deliverance in hopes that others will hear and question the erroneous teachings that they have received and seek their own answers through the Word of God, the final answer to all things! If something does not match the word of God, I believe it is essential to call it out, regardless of who it may offend. To claim it is unfair to connect it to a specific organization is something I have never understood.
I will do my best to be fair when I discuss the UPC or any other organization. I have no vested interest in bashing anybody for the purpose of creating some form of damage. I was saved while in the UPC and I do not disbelieve others can be saved in the UPC, even if I don't fully agree with some of their doctrinal stands.
Feel free to call me out if you feel that I am not being fair. I am not above correction, and sometimes the balance of another opinion is the best way for others to get the full picture.
Cheers!
