And if they believe a person must stay in church to be saved, how can they justify NOT giving a letter of transfer when needed?
Sorry, my internet is limited today so I can't copy/paste the actual verses.

YW. I was surprised that was in there. I was never licensed or anything by the UPC. I've read bits and pieces here or there of the Manual, but didn't realize this was considered an obligation or somewhat mandatory.
I doubt the majority actually practice this though. It even mentions the "right hand of fellowship," which I thought was just a Baptist thing.
