I think he is a really good man. He just happens to be very conservative. I have a lot of respect for the man, I just don't agree with his views anymore. I usually refrain from spekaing anything when he is brought up, caught between my knowledge of him personally and my disagreement with his views. We can disagree without throwing stones.

I didn't know you were out of the Bartlesville Church! Your pastor was a target back when he was Youth President. Looking back I have often felt that he was too much rules and not enough relationship. Time has changed much of that opinion. I will never forget that he is the one who introduced me to singing Psalms 19: 7-10 as a worship song. I wept and still weep everytime I sing that song. It has moved me so. I do now understand some of your history better now.

That was a really good impression, but I don't think you said WIFE as many times as he did.

I don't know why the big name guys that preach this kind of stuff are so high and heralded if this is the kind of stuff they preach. Good grief. (Yeah, I realize one message is not representative of all messages that they preach....) I've heard much better from much less 'famous.' |
It is not a Camp Meeting message, and obviously is not intended to be. Bro. Booker is one of the best Camp Meeting speakers around. But this message is intended to explain the actions that he is taking to his church.
In my opinion, he did a good job. When a line is moved, everything else often follows. All students of history will tell you that. It has happened many times.

Actually his first Gloria divorced him.
His second wife he divorced her.
As for the Lord Jesus Christ he has divorced Mark Hanby as well.

I know it's not a campmeeting message. It wasn't much of a Biblical one either. Lots of stories, that was about the long and the short of it.

I went to his website to look at pictures of both the outside and inside of his church. Nowhere to be found is a picture or symbol of a cross!! 
Is this christianity without the cross? It's definitely a church without a cross!
BTW, I never heard of Bro. Booker before I visited this forum. I'm sure he is a great man!

give your opinion, good or bad so that we can discuss it.
Booker told his church this past sunday night about how the tv vote went - said the organization took a turn towards destruction. He also said he was suprised at how many ministers nationwide are not happy.
Booker went on to say that the day of the vote was such an emotional day of sadness just like when JFK was shot and when the towers were hit on 9/11. He got the same feeling when the vote passed as on 9/11.
It is interesting to note that the original vote against tv took place in Tulsa in 1955 - maybe that's why they picked Tulsa as the place to form the new organization - to make a statement?
Also, Tommy Craft went to see Ken Phillips before the vote and apparently Wanda Phillips pleaded with Tommy Craft saying "don't let the movement (upc) go the way we did in regards to television. TV will steal everything from you"
crying and screaming Booker said in his message "me and and many other good men refuse to go that route - we will stand for holiness"
gave an example of how the PAW lost its standards and holiness.
said he would still fellowship his close (ulta-con) friends that stay in the upc
|
I still don't get it....how does staying in the UPC mean they are not still standing for Holiness etc etc? They are still able to preach what they want. BTW I know of at least one UC that did not even go and vote..I wonder how many other UCs had that kind of apathy?

Not having an icon of a cross on or in a building does not mean Christianity with out the cross.

i sure hope that was meant TIC
i do not in any way agree with the steps that MH has taken in his life but to say that the Lord has divorced him would be against the Word of God imho
if i took your comments wrong i apologize but i was taken back when i read them
