The problem I see is that people outside of a group tend to lump all the people in a certain group into one circle. So if someone knows about this kind of stuff in one Apostolic church, their thinking is likely to be that ALL Apostolic churches behave like this. And for most people, the message they would take from this is, "Run as far and fast away from this mess as you can"
I'm not even Apostolic anymore and I would still be concerned about the image people are getting of Apostolic people when they know about things like this.
Exactly!! That is why I am really praying that this tv thing comes to nothing. You know that a church like this is going to get on for services and then all the world will see it and think that we are all like that. Now if we could guarantee that only sane preachers and churches would use tv then it would be different.
There is a UPC church in a unnamed location that when the pastor is getting down with his preaching, the men in the church rip off their ties and throw them at the pulpit to show their agreement.
Even the little guys with clip on's will take them off and throw them up there.
Have you seen this practice? Is this really necessary?
Also, the ladies in this church "carry" their hair over their arms when they walk around.
Now, call me different, but that's just a bit out there for me. What say ye?
Doesn't surprise me any... I've seen stick worship, dove worship, broken legs worshiped, ravens worshiped. And, yes... it's all to far out there. Jesus Christ and Him only will I worship.

The guy needs to be on TV for all to see just what the UPC allows and tolerates!

That just sounds way too goofy for me. I would thing that borders on the line of being quite disrespectful in the house of God. Thats just my opinion. They all run upfront and throw them?
This reminds me of the behavior of the faithful at Three Pines Pentecostal Church in DeRidder, LA. I have seen video clips of their services and the men don't throw their ties but the do cluster around the pulpit and "encourage" the preacher "vociferously"!

I've watched their services online in the distant past. I used to talk to a couple members of that church but I've lost contact now. Seems like a great church though.
