Re: Have You Been to WWPF Lately?
As far as SEPARATION is concerned, the WPF was willing to maintain their membership in both organizations; it was the UPC that decided to do something about that.
The interesting thing when the kingdom of Israel split was that when Jeroboam rebelled against the God-given authority of Reheboam, Jeroboam put away the Levites out of Israel. He disfellowshipped them. He put away, God's ordained priesthood and came up with his own. But everyone whose heart sought after God, left Israel and went to Judah and Jerusalem. When Jeroboam realized that during the time of worship, Israel might go back to Jerusalem, he created a substitute and told them it was too much for them to go to Jerusalem - it was TOO HARD for them.
Kinda reminds me of speaking evil of the way of truth.
