Time will tell. I don't doubt your friend's intentions, but he will eventually be forced to pick one over the other. (Let me know as soon as it happens!) Whether he wants out or not, his affiliation with WPF will probably hurt his chances of re-election the next time his district-level position is voted on. if he hasn't surrendered his oopsee card by then, being voted out might hasten his departure.
The affiliation thing does not necessarily apply to churches that have NEVER been affiliated. I know we have several churches that have never been affiliated and that does not necessarily reflect that a minister is leaving...but the ones that are suddenly disaffiliatiing and their names are suddenly being added to the WPF roster....they will eventually end up in one or the other or neither, but not both. Again, this is a prediction...please update me when it proves correct.
