I am sure that he had reasons!!!!!!!!
No one doubts the DS is a good man ... nor that he had reasons.

I have seen many good people handle situations poorly. Without a doubt I know I have.

JS IS a good man. A trusting good man. The goods he is getting are tainted. He's in the Old boys club down here in this district and there are people who really are out of touch. This church has been the only real UPC church in this area for probably 20 years. This church was on an island and the only way you got on the island was with the right pass. Thats why after 30 years it was running well under the numbers that built the church.

I know I am a rebel, but if I were the Evangelist, the first thing I would do is to get my licenes in a district where the DS doesnt like getting bullied. then when I got a call from the MSDS, I would tell the guy to go stick it in his eyeball.

and i would preach where I wanted. but that is just me.


PS, How does a DS from one district get a license pulled from a guy in another district? isnt that kind of hard to do?

Honestly friend, I am not speaking about this situation in particular. I am speaking in general terms.

i hope I have the good sense not to go to a place where I should not, but at the same time, if given very little reason, or in a situation where I have a freind that I might be preaching for, I promise you, I dont push very easily.

What if we were dealing with a situation where an evangelist were going to preach for some conservitive independant chruch that had gotten cross ways with the local UPCI pastor? Then the DS of the UPCI calls this independant pastor who has done nothing more than preach a strong standard and tells him he is "under question"?

Having said that, I can tell you that there are churches that a UPCI man should not preach. I know of a church where the current pastor should NOT be under question but any friend of mine that said he was preaching there would get a good chewing on because of the church, not the pastor.

Ferd, do you remember the situation I was involved in back a couple of months ago? You know, threatening to be sued and all that. No doubt the same people are involved in this problem.

Should this tactics be used? NO WAY.

Refer to prior posts were it concerns my thoughts of JS. He is getting bad info. First full year in and people are taking advantage of him.
