Not that I put my faith in MEN instead of God, but I feel these guys will do everything they can do prevent the UPC from becoming "liberal". I'm really not concerned.
That's my two cents' worth.

I agree with you! But......this is the first time that the conservative wing of the UPCI has tried to show their strength and failed. This shows that the power has swung to the moderates, which are still very conservative!!!!
I STILL see the UPCI has extremely conservative!!! The UPC will NEVER be a liberal church organization!

PM, bro, I wish I believed that.
Too much water under the bridge though.

Sounds like a very shallow heritage to me!
I say don't sweat the small stuff, and save your energy for the REAL battles!  |
Exactly. It shows how warped some peoples view of Christianinty is. When you have so much invested in extreme seperatism and legalism this is the result.

I totally agree. This always gets funnier, though. And that is sad.

Just this thermos, no television, and Acts 2:38, and that's all we need. We don't need anything else... Oh, and this lamp. This thermos, no television, Acts 2:38, and this lamp... And that's all we need.

Could it be the beginning of the end? Maybe, but only if those who loved the beginning abandon ship.
Could it be the end of the beginning? Certainly, and that would mean many great days are ahead.
Hide and watch. God will still be on the throne tomorrow, and the next day and the next. And if the UPC is no longer the right instrument, then God will use another. It shall be well.
It SHALL be WELL.

I am glad we're friends because this would have bothered me if I didn't feel that it was written TIC.
