Brother you have brought the outward into debate with the posts about your wife.

The UPC was changed in a way that was unethical and deceitful. This betrayed a lot of people. I don't think we need to rehash the outright lies that were told to get the voting ministers to go along with an extra-parliamentary romp.
So what's wrong with "ex-UPCers" who point out these and other errors?

Dialog on doctrine is fine and healthy. Hopefully everyone is looking for truth but it's the attitude and wording as Ferd pointed out that causes offence when it is not done in love and meekness.

if you are talking about 1992 then I dont disagree with you.
but that is a different argument than what is being brought here.
somehow we are sanitizing the history of the Apostolic movemennt because some UPCI preachers want to make sure we (the current UPCI) doesnt change its idenity?
two different things bro. Two very different things.
and just to be clear, I have some PCI roots. I am pretty well versed in what those old PCI guys taught. to suggest that they didnt have a distintive Apostilc idenity would be a false statement at best.

Their distinctive was compromised by a huge push right after the merger to establish one group's "identity" at the expense of the other. But if you don't agree that '92 was deceitful then you may not be that familiar with the events and the things that were done.
It was all done to "sanitize" the identy of the UPC and purge the PCI influence. When I was first licensed, every UPC minister was required to read the writings of John Dearing. Brother Dearing was excised and cut out without comment right after '92. Most of the resolutions and moves since the merger have beeen done to undermine an eclipse the influence of the "PCI's" approach to things.
