Re: Perspectives Sounding Social Network Alarms
Now if he had mentioned women in "bundage" I would have thought FCF, NFCF, or possibly even AFF.
If this is the magazine that PM / IBC publishes in the past it actually was pretty even handed. Years ago they did an article on the TV ministry issue and interviewed a UPC preacher I knew who was for it and they actually published his quote.
I think DKB sees his mission as clarifying and drawing a line in the sand in regards to UPC distinctives / seperation. Hence all of those district letters modeled after the one he did in Texas and now this article might even be a part of that campaign. Something that in recent years PM is probably on board with since he sponsers the "Save The Fort" conference annually.

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
