Bingo.
Some of these people actually make it sound like the UPC and similar "3-stepper" churches are
putting a BURDEN on people by preaching the essentiality of receiving the Holy Ghost. How ironic.
If the UPCI were to end up becoming a watered-down Pentecostal denomination like the AoG one day, a lot of these same people would think of that as being
"progress".... even if it meant only about
20-25% the new believers would be getting filled and baptized, as it now is in the AoG.
Totally absurd, in my view.
As I see it, maybe some of these folks should just go form their own watered-down churches if they want to emulate the AoG so bad -- and just leave the rest of us alone over here.
