But I understand where UCs could feel hurt,and I certainly won't mock them.
The UCs were never the only group in this org...they might have been the most vocal or in control longer or whatever but many others put a lot into this group and in fact were kicked out, forced out, marginalized or whatever...this org has become something it was never meant to be. It seems the org became an Idol rather than a means of unifying all OPs to evangelize this world.

Pro 14:15

"The simple BELIEVETH EVERY WORD: but the prudent man looketh WELL to his going."


Sister what is being said is pointed towards ministry and we best be sure what comments we say concerning Brothers and Sisters, and especially those who are teaching the Word of God. We are also admonished to not bring an accusation against an Elder without two or three witnesses.

It just seems that a few people on here tend to be very anti-Apostolic Jesus Name Pentecostal.

Then the "until" part means that they PROVE themselves.

You're above thinking may sound noble it will get people in trouble. Mainly the innocent are the ones who suffer from such a mindset, we should check out stories when we hear them. Especially when they seal with such outlandish topics.

I don't agree with this Statement. No one has made an Idol out of an organzation- never seen anyone bow before a UPC statue or anything AND everyone is trying to evangelize their area regardless if they are not using a TV. even those that want to advertise have evangelized their communities w/o it.

An idol doesn't have to tangible to be worshipped.
