There is a difference between associating with them and being a part of them.
Great post!

Re: UPC at Wesleyan Holiness Consortium

This seems to have been a meeting that was more than just associating, and closer to joining. I am concerned that this is just going to be the start of greater compromises. I read the pdf, and this sounds like a meeting where doctrinal distinctives and truths were ignored in favor of compromise. I would say that this was closer to a meeting of used to be holiness groups.

I can tell you this, Rev Bernard is no slackie when it comes to Holiness Standards. He teaches it right out of the bible.

Re: UPC at Wesleyan Holiness Consortium

From what I have seen, it does not seem as if there is much holding the UPC to its roots. There are still many good men in it, but it seems as if there are many attempting to remove the remaining standards that they hold. Then with DKB attending this meeting, it looks like the overall situation is made for compromising everything.

Re: UPC at Wesleyan Holiness Consortium

We are aligned with the WPF, we are perhaps in a more moderate postition now, but we would be allied to the more conservative faction (and t.here are conservatives and liberals).

I am very distressed to see the way that the UPC is going. I know of good men who have said that they will not remain if it changes much more. I will not name names.

So I think any thoughts you have about DKB "compromising everthing" is suspect at best.

He is after all, responsible for making WPFers choose between the UPC and a newly spawned group formed in protest to allowing old advertising technology!

Re: UPC at Wesleyan Holiness Consortium

Could this be used to let people see the truth of Jesus name baptism and Holy Spirit baptism? I pray this could be the outcome of this whole situation.

Re: UPC at Wesleyan Holiness Consortium

This may be an opportunity for all that attend to learn more about each others real beliefs. and maybe a chance for them to find out how to search the scriptures for the truth.

Bingo! I am very happy that David Bernard is engaged, and humble enough to contribute to discussion of diverse brethren with similar goals.
