I received the resolutions for the UPCI conference a few weeks ago, and just heard in the last few days that there is going to be another resolution coming from the general board at conference time. David Bernard has called a few of his men together and come up with a resolution that will give the district boards power to deal with churches that are not abiding by the UPCI manual, and not preaching and teaching the manual. Has any one on here heard this?
Well, that would wipe out majority of the churches.
I was thinking the same thing; it would be the final days of the UPCI. We think the organization is having financial problems now, another split will be soon, and the men that left in 2007 over resolution 4 are not coming back, it was never about TV, but about political power. So why is the UPCI leadership so busy trying to show the men that left that we can be holier than you with our standards.

One of the greatest deliverances is from other people.

If I were them I would push forward...not enter into some kind of race with others...There are good men and women everywhere...
I received an awesome puplication from the Brazil UPC the other day...I will never belong but I do have great respect for their leaders in Brazil...Probably some of the most fruitful missionaries that ever walked...Hats off to Brother and Sister DeMerchant....

Too bad they've never had a woman super. Maybe you should run.

First, we called it the Untied Pentecostal Church and, in more recent years, The UPChuck. Hey, just being honest.
UPChuck?
I thought UPC stood for Under Privileged Children.
Yes, they are children of God but held in bondage/domination/control by a large religious/political organization so they do not get to enjoy the liberty of Christ and the freedom and rest of His grace. It has become, in many places, a performance based religion. There is no confidence in their salvation. They are always in fear that they may not have dotted every "i" and crossed every "t" properly. And many are not allowed fellowship with other children of God because they do not look, act, think, or talk like the domineering parent figure thinks they should.
