Taking a quick, kind of a bird's eye, objective look over some of the threads and posts during the last few minutes. Interesting at least .... if not downright funny.

Ah well. Human nature is what it is and we all have one.

During this transition period in our lives we are attending CCC and I believe the UPCI is moving in a right direction if Pastor RW is one example of a new generation of UPC ministers who are strong in the Word, but progressive and innovative in their delivery of the Word and presentation of their church, than there is reason to be encouraged. RW is an awesome pastor IMHO!

Having said this, I want to add that the UPCI will be much more efffective going forward to the degree they are willing to humble themselves and are willing to acknowledge the authenticity of non-UPCers relationship with God. IMHO, one can have an effective Priscilla/Aquilla ministry to other sincere Christian believers only when it is done with deep humility rather than the haughty spirit that so often characterizes those who feel they have THE TRUTH.
TB: just curious as to why you would go back to the UPCI.

If I'm not mistaken your post's have always reflected your belief that salvation is by faith in God's grace?

More the PCI veiw of the bible. Why the flip inyour direction?

Human nature is a funny thing.
People have trashed the UPC on AFF?

I thought that wasn't allowed?

One Who Skins Coons, you must be mistaken.



What I have seen is alot of WWPF defenders who currently hold UPC credentials.



hmmmmmmmm

Sorry, TB, don't buy this with all of the fear mongering pointed at WPF from the UPC.

Maybe because he can't think of a better person to quote.
