Maybe a good church growth program in an ultra con church is for every couple to have 10 children. You'll have a captive audience for at least 18 years. Works for the mormons.

I don't think many ultra cons "have revival" whether they are in or out of the UPC because they add so many extra biblical requirements to the Gospel not many are willing to suspend the mind God gave them to jump through the hoops.

How many ultra churches can contribute their growth to new converts. Usually ultra churches grow by popping out babies dozens at a time or get people from other churches.
Praxeas, this is the kind of junk that i'm responding to.

GUESS WHAT??? It's not cold on this side of the UPC circle either! We are in the middle of red-hot revival, with lives being changed left & right. Also, there is lots of warm fellowship with others who really love the Lord. Whoever says that it's "cold" outside of the org just doesnt' know. There are great people on both sides of the circle.

Maybe this growth program is how Bro Wilson has built one of the largest oneness churches in America? You really can't be serious in your post. I do enjoy reading your post they always give me a little laugh.
I guess maybe this is the method Bro Booker uses as well, or Bro Godair, or Bro Vaughn Morton. Get real. The fact is you assume that UC churches can't have real apostolic revival but that is a LIE. I know of some pretty dead liberal churches that have prayed 5 people through this year, you really should look at some fact before you make silly post.

There are DEAD churches on both ends of the spectrum. There are ALIVE churches on both sides too. It depends on the heart of the people involved and on the vision of the leader.

This is a true statement and I really believe it. My response was to the ones that say UC's can't have revival.

Well, those statements are ridiculous. But they are no different than the people who get on here and say that the ones of us on this side of the spectrum are a bunch of "greasy grace sloppy agape" liberals who don't have the power of God. Both answers are WRONG.
