great post, I agree.

The articles of faith haven't changed on doctrine,so if somebody who was UPCI and went on tv,and preached easy believism couldn't get they get the boot ?

I think what will eventually be the next HUGE mistake the organization makes will be when some of the ones going on television have to back up on doctrine to stay on programming (can you say 'TBN' and it's contractual agreement pertaining to oneness). When some of these who go on television (some will do it right... some will show their true colors in time) start compromising the message for a 'pray & say' or 'confess and digress' doctrine that will be more politically acceptable there WILL be a huge blowup over the 'saved at repentance' vs. 'Acts 2:38' message.

Now THAT will be the 'Mother of all divisions'. TV will help push this to that point.

Yes, I sincerely believe that will happen.

a certain Prophecy teacher was on Daystar and never mentioned ACTS238

but then again, is it ever mentioned in his seminars or magazines? im not sure that's why im asking

Matt,

I have first hand knowledge of KH telling and correcting the likes of Mark Hanby and others who have gone that way, and KH telling them that they (Hanby, Munsey) don't believe anything and that their lack of sound doctrine is wrong.

I don't know why you are fixiated on this, maybe because your history isn't UPC but this is an old issue and many in the old days of the Organization believed that God was ultimately the judge and not put someone in hell just because they haven't received the whole package.

Some won't see what they are doing as a compromise at all because they believe people are saved at repentance in the first place.

I think the question is, if the cons do leave, how liberal will the rest become?
