Still very sad. my parents were very very ULTRA CON and yet this kinda of foolishness was not part of it. I am finding the more I hear of this kind of thing that even though I was raised ULTRA CON that we still had MORE BALANCE than many who we thought of as LIBERAL.

Checking private evening attire worn to bed belonging to young laides is twisted, and it feels cultic.

Just my thoughts.

Here's another concern of mine. While the evening speaker preached, he stated certain saints always bail to other churches when they don't get their way. He said they need to stick around and listen to the elders? I then thought to myself, the pastors on the platform are applauding this speaker, yet when the TV resolution passed, all of those pastors on the platform bailed out of the UPCI! My God, I thought we were suppose to stick it out, and listen to the elders advising against leaving the UPCI?
This point was an excellent one! Inconsistency at its best.

Guess that rule doesn't apply to some.

The five-fold ministry doesn't possess the position of a dictator, at least last time I checked.


This was also told to people in my home church too - the pastor pulled the church from UPC and there were quite a few that left and the remaining members were told to not to have anything to do with them even if they were their own family members - it's sad but it happens - nothing anyone can do about it but know that in time God will deal with it.

The contrary--every substantive thread reaches several conclusions.

I didn't know that threads were meant to reach conclusions, but rather to provoke thought and discussion.

Yeah, Sam, sheesh. Checking for holy underwear, why, that would be ridiculous. Now, jammies, that's another matter!



BTW, Bryan, when they found those wicked jammies, did they send the owners home? Presumably, they wouldn't have any back-ups, so confiscation wouldn't do any good. (Gasp! The implications of that boggle the mind!)
