A good source has reported that the General board of the UPCI has voted TODAY against dual membership for WPF and UPCI ministers. Has anyone heard this? If true ... what are the repercussions?

I can't see anyone wanting to belong to the WPF and the UPCI both anyway.. just my opinion here, but those who joined WPF or have interest in doing so, are looking for an alternative to the UPCI it seems.

Just catching up on this thread and haven't read all the way through yet...
I sense a bit of disappointment over the WPF among the "ultracon" crowd. From their perspective there may not be all that much difference between UPC and WPF.
The leading WPF churches have Internet video broadcasts that resemble television production values. They use the "praise dancers" or whatever you want to call it. Most of them really don't appear to be much different than the UPC. The way it looks to me is that no "alternative" has really emerged. Those who want to leave will probably do so but go the independent route.
I actually liked the way some of the doctrines were articulated in the WPF docs. it's a shame they couldn't interact more within the UPC.
And, I still say that if NW had been elected California DS he would have proven to be a faithful UPC leader and would not have gone to Tulsa.
