Would you appreciate being classifed as such because of the poor manners of a few? I would concur with JDMissions, and have you go there and experience the real church for an extended period, first hand. You will find some lacking in ethics to be sure. But there will be others that balance the scale dramatically.

Of course, I am completely satisfied at the level of ministerial ethics I have seen here in this country. I'm just wondering where the courses are taught? And are there any refreshers for those who have forgotten?

I think not!

I would be insulted!!!

I am Canadian!!! You must be referring to that Monkeyman! He is American!!!

We are generally known as being Kind!

The bottom line is that Filipino pastors are human, just like American pastors are. We all have failings, but come on? 95%?

I know these people and have been raised around them. I ate from the same plates as the current church leaders when they were bible school students and I was still a child. While some of them have disappointed us, they do not have any worse ethical problems than we do here in the USA.

I hope Ron is able to revisit his beliefs with regard to the Filipino leaders.

Yes they are human

Maybe the ones I met didn't adhere are listen to ethical teachings.

Read carefully. 95% of the Philippine Ministers who have come through here.

My wife even had one interaction with a Minister that left her disgusted.

Again, just a question.

Are Ethics taught & stressed, practiced.

BECAUSE IT IS OUR OBSERVATION THAT IT ISN'T!

My apologies Bro. Ron for missing to understand your statement. I don't know if I missed it, but you never really said that it's the Filipino Ministers who have come to your country that your referring to.

I wonder how they get there. I hope it was formally coordinated with the National Office of the UPC Philippines. Otherwise, it's not really good just to trust anybody who comes by and just let those guys minister to my church. Even if someone from my church knows them.

How about something possitive for a change?

The Philippine leaders have begun plans to conduct a 100 city crusade. This will be conducted simultaneously all across the country. Each city that has been targeted in the nation will be invaded by teams from all over the world, and work together with the local saints. Litterally thousands from all over will be joining for this event.

This is a very exciting event and will be held sometime in 2010. You will be hearing more about this in the future.

The Philippines is the center of apostolic harvest in the end time.
