It wasn't until I pushed that all away and studied the Bible itself (with the help of a concordance and Vine's) that I came to the conclusion that the Bible did not teach what the UPC taught on that issue. And I didn't go into it with trying to prove it wrong, either- I wanted to know the truth of the matter. It was the same with the other issues.

So as to tongues and water baptism, no, I did not use these type books in coming to my conclusions.
Sister, are you still in study and willing to learn more? Also if you were to discover that you had been incorrect in what you had found, would you be willing to make the proper changes?

Again I thank you for your time.

In Jesus name
