You didnt offend me. But you didnt start this thread as a "This is my experience" you started it with an indictment on all of the UPCI.
That needed to be addressed. Several of us did just that. The problem isnt with the UPCI it is with some of what you experienced several years ago.
and if you read further, you would have seen where I suggested that a mistake of the UPCI is having tolerated pastors who have brought a reproach on the organization.
ILG, I dont disagree with the idea that there are some problems with the UPCI. If you want to "help" someone who is feeling some imbalance, then deal with that. What ever your intentions were, you certainly made a clear blanket indictment of an entire organization of men who love God and love the work of God and love Gods people.
