Re: What would you like to ask David Bernard?
I would like to ask
Why not at least LISTEN to a seasoned Bible teacher regarding "fulfilled eschatology" or better known as "preterism" rather than blasting the view and forbidding any card carrying preacher to teach it? There is no problem with accepting and teaching a Trinitarian view of eschatology called the Rapture or a post trib view..There are many Apostolic /Oneness pastors who are either teaching this "other view" or they are at least looking at it,some do not wish to be known or come out of the closest.I know of a famous UPC pastor who at leasts teaches a "partial preterism view" but He would not come out and tell you that he does.I will never tell his identity without his permission so do not bother asking me..

Re: What would you like to ask David Bernard?
I would ask why he does not support a broad tent idea like the old timers did.
Do you welcome those who were welcomed by leadership at the time of the merger? When can we expect strong leadership on the Executive Board that will return us to our roots in regards to our view of other Christians?

Re: What would you like to ask David Bernard?
I'd probably ask his opinion of: Why is it, that the UPC's style of worship is apostolic. ?
(....and then most other denomination's worship is not considered by pentecostals, to be "apostolic")
then I'd go on to ask him how long he's planning on waiting to pay Pel back that $50

When I fly out of Austin I almost always get a plate of brisket at the Salt Lick airport location. I don't like their sides but the meat is great.
I agree the original Salt Lick is best. I went to one of the new locations a few years ago and it was not good.
Actually I like Pok-e-Jo's brisket probably the best in Austin. There is another name there that escapes me right now that is really good also. It is the one that originated in San Antonio but they have one in Round Rock and I think in Austin.
If you have time to drive to Elgin that Elgin Sausage is good!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

He doesn't really "owe" me $50.00, but I thought with so many folks throwing questions at him that he might question himself as to whether he did or didn't and just give me the money to make me go away.
Hey, these are tough economic times we live in.

Re: What would you like to ask David Bernard?
Seriously, though... he's as circumspect as they come. He won't give you any answers that he hasn't already given in print or elsewhere. With regard to obviously common sense things like beards he'll try to NOT offend the radicals but even DKB knows there's just no Biblical justification for that one.
I "debated" him once long ago, probably before either one of us could even grow hair. I didn't really "debate" - I was just giving a review of one of his upcoming books. But folks kept trying to egg me on, just for fun, I guess.
He made some off hand comment about being "tired" of something (don't remember if it was "tired" exactly or what) that was even directed at anything I had said. People came up to me afterward and said things like, "You got to him on that one!" No I didn't. "That one" didn't even have anything to do with me. Whatever.
He's a nice guy but most people find him to be very taciturn. That's a big reason why he's been "successful" in Apostolica.

This would probably be the number one question that I'd ask him too.
It sure would be more encouraging for me to know that if I ever wanted to someday be in ministry in an official capaicty that I can do so within the UPCI without violating my conscience.
I am sure eventually I will just have to leave, if this is never addressed in a positive way.
