I demeaned an Apostolic organization that was reaching the lost.
I became a nut job.
If the UPCI goes on TV, so what? Will this mean she will quit preaching Acts 2:38? No. We really need to quit fooling ourselves. Monitors are TVs and many saints have at least one in their home, and this includes the computer monitor that we read messages on.
How about this instead? How about we get real, and admit that the UPCI, ALJC, PAW, and these orgs are doing a good work. Just my thoughts. |
If TV is the only thing that will cause SHE to quit preaching, the good old boys would have voted it in decades ago!

And just "where" is over "here?"

*sigh*
I see a lot of wishful thinking going on in some of these posts.

Bet they won't invite him to join their Preacher's Only forum either.

Re: Has The UPCI Served It's Purpose.
Interesting thread to resurrect.
Personally I believe the UPC's best days are ahead of it.

The " Org. continue as a force in the church?"
"The Org." was a "force in the church?" I used to dream of helping in some small way to make that true, but I know of no time when it could really be said to have been "a force." Maybe a "footnote" or perhaps a "parallel stream" at times.
My viewpoint today is that "the Org." at its best, felt the powerful force of "the church..." But I don't really think the UPC has ever yet been "a force" impacting our larger society and helping to mold and shape the destiny of nations the way "the church" has.

The church is the body of Christ. The body of Christ are those who have been baptized by the Spirit and made to drink of the Spirit. 1 Cor 12:13.
Pelathais, who is "the church" you have in quotes? The RCC?
