Not only did you renege on sending a PM with the person's name, you later posted he wasn't a current pastor or minister at all and whether he's actually UPCI you posted "to me, UPCI, ALJC, COOLJC, PAW, ABCs & 123s, it makes no difference."


You're too clever by half.


Speaking of soiled garments, you should change yours.
You can't see what I'm trying to say because you're in attack mode.
1.) My response was in relation to Amanah's accusation that I want to destroy conservative churches. She referenced a post in which I had said that if pastors get political in pulpits, maybe we should get political in the pews and protest them. The point wasn't to destroy any church, liberal or conservative. The point was to illustrate how the house of God shouldn't be allowed to become a political action committee, and how we should desire to hear preachers preach Jesus, not their political heroes.

2.) My response was only an "example" of how political hero worship can corrupt good manners. I honestly didn't think it would get this much traction. It was only an example.

3.) I never said the man was currently a pastor.

4.) I didn't send you the man's name or information because I don't want to slander him. Again, it was just an "example". And for the record, I did the send the man's name to an individual that I trust in this discussion. If he wishes to reveal the man's name, that's entirely up to him. But I'm not going to because that wasn't the point I was making.

5.) It is my understanding that the man is UPCI. But I don't hold any loyalty to any human organization. To me, they're all the same. Just money making fraternities of men. And here's what I don't get. The UPCI will be just fine. Millions of people aren't hanging on my every word, with the UPCI holding it together by a string. The UPCI is going to be just fine. And for the record, unless someone makes a big deal out of this, it isn't going to even be a blip on the radar.
Now, if you can't understand the point and purpose of the post, then you are blinded by the god of this world in your own hero and organization worship.

You are attack dogging like Sean Hannity. You're not inquiring as a brother. You've misrepresented what was said and the intentions of what was said so badly that we've ended up way out here where nothing makes sense.

Please review my points above, and instead of trying to refute them... consider that they are truly what I intended. Else, remain in darkness and lies, and false accusations. Your choice.
