Of course I believe that will be best for all in the long run as that will free Life Church from having dissent and friction from those who do not agree. I believe God will replace those who leave with a multiple many times that number. So both the ones leaving, Life Church, the other churches, and the Great Commission all win!

CC1 - to a certain extent, I agree with you. However, as I have said many times, I have rarely, very rarely, observed a UPC church go through this process and hold on to the basic doctrine. They may hold on to it for a while, but it seems to slip away at some point.
Seems like you witnessed this first-hand.
