God can love it all He wants. It doesn't mean I have to like it.

The Galatians Paul addressed were "bewitched" and "deceived" into adopting extra Biblical standards. They followed after those who wanted to add to the Word of God and NOT after Christ.
Paul was telling them to abandon all of the "extra" junk and follow Christ. Read Galatians 3.

You beat me to the punch. lol
In the words of Carlos Mencia, "De-de-de"
What Paul is saying the legalists are witches.
It's got to blow chunks to be a legalist.

Thank God for my pastor who had the patience of Job to straighten out this mess.

All those individuals that I named had problems, but also had the money and media to sell their wares. Benny Sinner, hasn't ever been nailed for anything near to perversion, or drugs. Peter Popoff and Robert Tilton were con artists. My point in using those criminals is mainly because they eat the sheep. In other words, it's because they run their ministries like a rock star's concert tour. Read my post, a comment was made to save the UPCI, by making it liberal, (like no standards makes everything so wonderful), I was trying to point out that money and fame and fortune is the main drive for most of these individuals. Hence my closing remark that UPCI wouldn't be saved by opportunists.

Re: The UPC is a dying movement!
Most people want the spirit of the merger to be honored by all parties. Most of the oneness preachers would have been content to stay in the Assemblies of God if they were not thrown out of the organization. The thread which held the upci together was the belief in the oneness doctrine. The organization died when a selected few decided to break the spirit of the merger.

I dunno EB. Who in the UPC is following Benny Hinn & Co? And who's Robin Leech? You must watch an awful lot of TV - I only caught a little more than half of your references.
And why is path of following BIBLE holiness wrong? Why not dump all of the extra-Biblical stuff? Let's be Bible believers!
BTW - has been hot enough for you in FL this summer? We're planning a trip down there next year - but I refuse to go in the summer.

I wasn't raised in the church, Robin Leech was an annoying English guy who had no money, but showed the couch potatoes in front of the tube what they were missing. Who is following Benny Sinner, and company? Why more than half of you guys who post here.

Oh, BIBLE holiness! That's where you have clean thoughts, and are separated inwardly, and yet the outside looks like something that walked out of a Grateful Dead road show.

We have a Presbyterian Seminary up the block, and they say the same thing. If you were to sit down with their students they would tell you that you were a heretic and that you needed to understand that tongues were extra-Biblical stuff. One man's heresy, is another man's faith.
Oh, merry Xmas!

The United Pentecostal Church will be around for ever and people will still be having church. Apostolic Pentecostal movement will be going strong, and the sour pusses will always be available to throw rocks.
Some people need to stop whining.

When Jesus returns to set up his kingdom on the earth in its fullness, I wonder what district he will join?

That is simple! It will be the minister from Florida who is the owner of the "Wall of shame".
