I think God greatly appreciates all persons and organizations that stand for and promote the Gospel despite any flaws they might have.
Anyone who believes that the biblical method of baptism is immersion in Jesus Name should understand the role that the UPC has played in the growth of that practice in the 20th and now 21st century. Not only within it's ranks but the many that have left and have "gone charismatic" that still baptize in Jesus name.
