It's Time to Head Down to Splitsville

It is going to end in Tampa, Florida in October. The United Pentecostal Church is going to vote in favor of television ministry and advertising. This will take place after a summer full of letters, Forward articles, and a lot of political mudslinging. The debate on the floor at this General Conference has the potential of being the livliest ever.

Each day the grumbling, and rumbling gets louder. It seems that there is great displeasure with the direction the movement is currently headed. It is apparent that there is a planned exit by a certain segment of the UPC already in place.

I think the time has come, as true unity is no longer present.

When elected officials begin attacking other elected officials publicly, unity is not present. When preachers call elected officials liars and thieves, unity is not present. When funding is withheld from critical organizational programs as a political statement, unity is not present.

The United Pentecostal Church cannot grow with this amount of contention present. It's time to head down to Splitsville.

It seems that I read somewhere about where there is confusion there is every evil work.

Can anyone here confirm if that statement is true or not?
