Re: I'm Sick Of It!
i think you guys got the wrong vibes. I am not mad at anyone, I am just tired of us seperating over every little thing. My point was why is it that Jesus name churches have so little fellowship with each other, even within the same oranization. I attend a UPC church in an area where there are several other UPC churches, yet we haven't had a church service with other upc churches in 3 years. And not only upc, we should have fellowship with other oneness, Jesus name churches, even if they are not upc. My point wasn't anger at people or an organization, my point was we have the greatest truth, the greatest church, but only if we unite instead of dividing, and dividing. With growth there comes diversity, as long as the gospel doesn't change, why do people have to bail out, it seems fear, or other times pettiness, gets in the way of what God is trying to do.
What could we accomplish if we didn't concentrate on some man's convictions, and just had apostolic revival. Instead anytime there is growth, there is another split.
Lord forgive us, we are acting like babies.
