Some of it is good. Some of it is incorrect. But you should have already read my differences with it elsewhere. I am not going to rehash those here. Enjoy the thread.

Oh, of course. I keep forgetting that you never post anything anyone could ever differ with. Absolute perfection. Thus, no need to discuss the post.

When you, like the original author did, see that my points regarding the 25% statistic is incorrect, then you can correct this post.

To much to give a response to without writing a second volume. So I will just hit and run.

No one has stated that the Manual is equal to the bible. Yet every minister in the UPCI is supposed to at least follow the constitution of the org he is a part of, even if he doesn't agree. In America, we have the freedom of expression. We can express our dislike of certain laws. We can work to change those laws. But when we break those laws, we go beyond our rights as a citizen of the US of A.

The fact that many of the UPCI preachers in TN have tv in their homes, and watch unseemly shows like 24, and CSI, shows their integrity level is at an all time low. I do not care whether they preach against Pants on women, or long hair on men. If they do not have enough integrity to live by the bylaws of the org that they belong to until the bylaws are changed, then they should step away from the pulpit, and find a place of employment where they can make a living, while obeying the rules of the business they are employed with.

I agree the 25% was incorrect...I just thought I would enjoy the jab at you like you so faithfully enjoy the jab at me!

However....the piont he was making, I think, was that only 25% of the voting ministrers are able to of choose to come to GC. SO...therefore only 25% are deciding the direction of the org.

And there is absolutely no way to determine if that is accurate or not either. I actually think much more than 25% CAN come. They choose not to. But they do enjoy whining about the decisions made in their absence.

Bro. Did you NOT GET HIS PERMISSION to post this here? Please tell me you did not do that.

WordShare is a Forum for UPCI ministers only and as such has a modicum of privacy assured. If you posted this here w/o his approval you have made an error in judgment.
