What was it meant to be Prax? The Assembly Of God?

The organization never became an idol for the Conservative Brothers. They had Ultra Cons from the Independents come and preach for them, so I hardly think any of the Conservatives held to an idol worship of the org.
As for unifying One God people the conservatives of the UPCI were writing articles for Brother Bud Tingle for years in his newspaper. Prax you sure you not talking about the Liberals?

An older lady was standing with me today, openly weeping as she said: "Today I have lost my heritage.....the heritage that I have had all my life."
Another elder told me: "I can make it, I'm almost retired. It is you young guys that I'm worried about."
We shall look back upon this day with astonishment. We have seen history today.
(name removed) epilogue:
Those who ignore history in the pursuit of a mis-perceived destiny, are destined to fail.
My sympathies to those who thought they were helping the UPCI progress, but will instead help preside over its demise.
BTW, as I left the Marriott today, Clint Brown and Tommy Tenney were arriving with their entourages. Are the vultures arriving already?
With sorrow in my heart, I thank God that my father didn't live to see this day and be broken-hearted.
|
That "elderly lady" had to have been just 30 years old. Her "I have lost my heritage.....the heritage that I have had all my life" statement reveals she must be less than 30! Resolution 4 simply removed a 30 year old restriction.
And, "openly weeping..." doesn't your "source" have any shame?
And, Shamgar- we already have seen pics of your buddy Clint Brown. He was there early and appears to travel alone.
How many more lies and sorry exagerations can we expect to hear from this crowd?
Shamgar - Truth: These guys lied in 1992 and lie today.

I spend less time in front of the television than you did coming up with an asinine post. Your perception of advertising would change if spent time researching the LOCAL angle of tv ministries instead getting chaffed over national tv preachers.
I reiterate it is none's business how a congregation decides to outreach. Nobody is forcing you to use television in your outreach. Just because you are not spirtual enough to handle tv advertising doesn't mean we all have to twiddle our thumbs while you are sucking your thumb. Some of us are ready to take Paul's words when he said he would be all to win some.
In keeping with the theme of the thread,
Ashes to ashes
Dust to Dust
It's about time
Legalism lost.

That's an important concern and the one reason why I hesitated to be really an advocate of TV.
But aren't you expressing concern over content and not the medium itself? That's one reason many were looking for amendments - to control the content.
The UPC has a big opportunity to either reinvent televison evagelism, or to make themselves look silly.
