Although late into this conversation, I want to add:
I also have wondered about the many name changes from First United Pentecostal Church of Anywhere to The Pentecostals of Anywhere ... I wondered if it was happening for either of the two reasons below:
1) Churches were trying to copy AMangun's success...
and, or
2) It was intended to conjure up a liberal label for a UPC church.
Just my thoughts.
I really do not think the changes were made to say that we are the ONLY Pentecostals... (although many UPCers DO think they are the only TRUE ones... and also DO think they are the only ones going to heaven... So I do see the reasoning behind the thread question.)
