Now THAT reminds me of somthing! Does anyone here remember Brother Akers from Ada, Oklahoma? He had a newspaper called the Apostolic Trumpet which was highly controversial even inflammatory yet everything the man printed was documented beyond any shadow of a doubt. He did not just reprint letters and documents backing up what ever his current tack was, but he printed the PHOTOCOPIED letters and documents themselves!

Much of that stuff was in the files there at UPC headquarters, and I have always wondered...THERE HAD TO BE SOMEBODY ON THE INSIDE GETTING THAT STUFF, PHOTCOPYING IT AND MAKING SURE HE HAD IT! Did they ever figure out who it was? It was all kind of Watergatish/Deep throat kind of stuff.

I remember people screaming at him there at general conference as he distributed his paper, screaming all kinds of things at him, but did anyone ever consider the veracity of the claims?

Anyway poor guy was already kind of falling apart, everything came unravelled for him years later.

But that takes me back to my question, Did they ever figure out who it was at Headquarters that had to be feeding him those documents?

I don't go to meeting to hear Godly standards ridiculed.
Just as I suspected.

Well I got news for you... most everyone IS sick of holy, holy attitudes. And yours reeks of it. As does Amos'. Shame on you.

But don't fret. Being the Christian Mark Johnston is, I'm sure he has already forgiven you both.

Why am I not shocked. You also have posted about wanting to walk out of Texas UPC district Youth meetings because they were not holy enough for you.

BTW - Do you own a black robe and gavel or are you just a judge as a hobby?

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Well I am sick of compromises and their shallow preaching.

I think the MJ attitude reeks and stunk to the high heavens.

Re: Letter from Bro. Chester Wright to Bro. Haney

You know what, I'm not even going to say what I was going to. Why even waste my breath? Why even stress over the insanity that I read here? I had it typed out, then thought about it, and decided not to even take up the bandwidth to post it.

And people wonder why revival isn't breaking out?


Truth is, it IS breaking out. But the holy ones can't/won't acknowledge it because to do so would legitimize people who are not like them, and God forbid...that can't happen.

Just shaking my head and .................................................. ................................................





thinking about becoming more relevant to my community and introducing them to Jesus instead of an org, movement or dead body!
