Well, consecration seems to be harder to find.

He hangs around because he likes to stay in contact with his roots, and I am glad he does.

Well, maybe that's why the rest of us stay around the org. We wanna be connected to our roots, and we've invested a lot.

But today these folks who calim these as their roots are closer to what the PCI came out of istead of the PCI.

Let me toss another name in that hat. George L. Glass Sr. This man was my pastor as a child. he pastored my family for many years and was Pastor Emeritus of my home church until he died. GLG Sr. was PCI in organization. However we dont know what he was in doctrine. On NFCF one of the best threads on that site was about this man and TimLan said he thought he was PCI in doctrine.

I grew up under his ministry and the ministry of those he mentored. I have in the last year talked at length with his son GLG Jr. HE DOESNT KNOW.

I can tell you that he preached the Acts 2:38 message in our church without reservation. But when some PAJC men tried to nail him down asking "Do you believe that a person can go to heaven without the Holy Ghost" his pat answer was "I dont know why anyone would want to go to Heaven without the Holy Ghost"

This is MY heritage. I come from an old PCI church. Coonskinner is dead on.

How do you feel about the local church as we know it, and the idea of a pastor?

What are your opinions?

Coonskinner is right. You and others claim to be soooooo tolerant, but the proof is in the posts.

Where have I ever said you are wrong??? My point is that if you chafe and squirm under the authority that you voluntarily placed yourself under why spend so much energy that does you no good? Plus you sign something that you may not fully believe. (Notice I said 'may')

I NEVER claimed 'tolerance' and I'm not the typical ex-UPCer that left over facial hair, long skirts, etc. I left due to doctrinal issues.

You really do have meal wrong.

Do you thing when we have visitors that I preach on holiness issues and put them in hell?

Do you think that I blast them as soon as they walk in the doors?

I guess that's why we've been having visitors in nearly every service.

This isn't about me... and I'm at work, so I really can't get into this deep of a discussion at this time.

Hence the post and run I've been doing this morning.

PP,

Let's don't have a falling out.

But Dave is one of the good guys here.

Not Apostolic, but a valuable part of the board or any other he chooses to grace with his presence.

When you get time I would like to hear about your beliefs, andf how they have evolved since I last had contact with you.
