I don't think that. Did not mean to imply that. I just don't see how they had any other choice in the matter!

UPCI WPF
dues yep
bible quizing yep
ladies min yep
F Missions yep
Gen Conf Summit
Etc. yep

So how can one be a part of both? The other would suffer. Different directions or focus! Just too confusing!

Not to mention putting these preachers in the position of voting in UPCI meetings, potentially on subjects that are at cross purposes with the WWPF. it becomes a matter of ethics at some point.

Truth be told ....

Quite frankly there were times Thad was green w/ envy in the last year when I outscooped him on some of the big stories.
Hmm, I wonder who fed you all of that juicy "on the spot" information from Conference?


lol

Re: No Double Dipping? General Board votes agains

Anyone suggesting the wpf is no different than the other organizations need to read the below list. Preachers stuck in the middle are there because the want to be there. The wpf can cry foul all they want, but the dirty underhanded tactics are coming from them.

you dont have to be quite that harsh.

they are what they are. no need to paint them as dirty and underhanded.

i dont agree with them. that doesnt mean they are somehow evil.

How so?

Now the local pastor will hold the young ministers on a very short leash.

There will be no oversight committees for the young man to appeal to.

Talk about control?

sheesh
