Re: Is It Possible? Is It Probable?

The basic statement of faith for the UPCI has changed little sense its inception, when Brother Witherspoon first wrote it, as a way to accommodate the "One-stepper" population in the PCI.

The key portion was that even though obeying Acts 2:38 would be considered the doctrine of full salvation, that they would all strive to maintain the unity of the Spirit and would not allow contention between brethren to disunify of the Body.

Here it is:

Quote:
The basic and fundamental doctrine of this organization shall be the Bible standard of full salvation, which is repentance, baptism in water by immersion in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and the baptism of the Holy Ghost with the initial sign of speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.

We shall endeavor to keep the unity of the Spirit until we all come into the unity of the faith, at the same time admonishing all brethren that they shall not contend for their different views to the disunity of the body.

Yeah, one step out the door.

The UPCI is on its way out. It will not be long till it will be gone.

And I mean "not be long" as in the process of time.

It's a Troll, they don't need a reason (or even have one available) they just come to the forum to instigate. Must be too cold where it lives. Therefore the fly population is next to zero. No fly wings to rip off, no puppies to drown, so boredom sets in once again. They turn to this forum to see how many fires they can create.

You really should refrain from making any accusations
that will not stand up in the court of truth.

It is you and your family that will suffer for it.

Are you aware that your actions will and do effect the welfare of your family?

I thought I would help you by pointing that out to you.

My actions? My actions are merely an observation of your current posts. Which we now have available to us.

Your actions are making a threat on an internet forum.

Any other questions?

Yeah here in Cleveland, not only is it cold and snowing, but I ran out of antifreeze to feed my kittens!

So glad there's AFF!
