What is interesting is that M.B. ran for one of the UPCI district superintendents positions in Texas (I believe they have three or four?) and was not elected. He later wrote a paper or book criticizing the UPCI organization and got kicked out of the UPCI.
The matter of contention was not only about the structure of the administration of the UPCI and the sovereignty of the local church , it was also a fight about . . .
TITHES.
