I have made peace with my past UPCI roots and I am fine with all that. It was James Griffin, I think, who stated that this was not a past issue nor was it with UPCI.

An evangelist who withdrew from UPCI two years ago began a church under another organizational umbrella. The church was 1 mile from where I was living. When I refused to sign a document of affirmation to support, obey, and honor the Pastor without questioning...he told the lady I was living with to ask me to leave as I had a contentious spirit [because I would not sign that document]. The lady was a new convert and you know how they are - they worship the Pastor they come to know Christ under, and think they are God. I not only was alienated from the church but asked to leave the home that I had just moved into in December.

It is just my thought...who is going to make up the difference in her mortgage now that i am leaving? I am sure that Pastor won't be paying it. The only reason I moved in with her was to help her out financially and to get away from the apt. I lived in as I had been broken into twice.

As it is...I am glad to be gone from that church as God knew I couldn't take that. I am also in the process of buying a home closer to my job and God is taking care of me.

The funny thing is that I was accused of being "legalistic" by this new convert...LOL. she doesn't understand...yet.

Blessings, Rhoni
So what you have been trying to say all along is that libs are legalistic authoritarian misogynists?
