I've never known anybody to consider the worth of someone else's position because someone else was so rude to them that they saw the light. I am ashamed.

I agree.. I am what u would call an UC.. Yet it is not my place to cast judgement and condemnation at those who hold "lower standards" than myself.
Bro Larry Booker made a comment while he was preaching last year at our campmeeting that summed the whole situation up perfectly. He said holiness/living for God/etc is like a group of people who are walking through a long tunnel, naturally there will be people who are at the front on the tunnel and those who are at the back of the tunnel. So as long as one keeps moving foward and growing in God and doesn't start backing up they will be okay.

More biblical, what is that? Show us in the scripture the "pastor" run church??? The biblical model is elder led, however the church today cannot endure or assimilate the true biblical model for the most part. Therefore it defaults to the dictator model, and by doing so the church body is not equipped to do the work of God, because the equipping is lopsided.

It truly was and is a great classic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a message the man was a prophet. I stopped by to see the pastor who pastors that church on my trip a childhood friend. Elder Bean's prophecy came to pass.

We have Bro. Bean's cassettes on Prayer and Gifts of the Holy Ghost....The sound quality is very poor, but I think I have listened to all of them over the years. We know people who knew him but we never met him.
