Yep that is true because in our glorified Baptist church last Sunday the Holy Ghost fell and the service was as Pentecostal as any service you guys and have been in.

Its sad to see what has happened. I personally would rather the PCI guys still preach that saved folk get baptized right and speak in tongues and still be part of us.

but here we are.... I do see retrenching within the UPCI and I do believe that there is a real effort to bring things back to center. I am hoping the guys in charge get the time they need to do that very thing.
A move to center would be interesting......

Re: The problem with the UPCI

Navygoat, we all know the Holyghost only falls in the oneness Pentecostal Churches, come on man thought you knew better then that..That holyghost that fell in your service was not real and the tongues were not real, just as my "Ex Oneness Apostolic/Pentecostal Preacher" told me when we told him we are going to a AG church...yup I really wanted to flip the table over at that point when he said that...

I don't believe people are thinking what you have written. We happen to know people who are AOG and they do not have Navygoat's story. When I homeschooled, we had some AOG people in our group. They certainly weren't having anything going on like Navygoat shared.

And I have always thought it was a ridiculous thing to say that someone doesn't have the "real Holy Ghost". When real faith is met, God will arrive. It doesn't mean everything is believed correctly, but the Comforter leads us and guides us into all truth - that also includes UPCI people as well.

Re: The problem with the UPCI

Well Me and Navygoats AOG churches are on the same page, all our services are like Navygoat described, we even have a few Pentecostals going that still hold the dress standards.. And as far PO not believing what I had written it is true, but I don't think all Pastors think like that.
