This is a heavy day for us all. I have read some liberal UPCI members are quite pleased that the conservatives are leaving- so that they can be left to do what they want, and there will be "unity" in the UPCI. Certainly, the ones that are left are committed to going a certain direction- but that direction is Hell. They call the ones that are leaving "ultra-cons." It's pathetic how what used to be standard became "conservative", and now it is "ultra-con." I'll tell you who are the "ultra-cons"- it's "Apostolic" preachers that say "we're in revival" and never say "we are lost and undone, let us repent!" They are the "ultra-cons", because they are CONNING themselves and the people there into thinking they are going to heaven. When, in fact, they are nothing but Laodicean mush, and God is going to spew them out of His mouth.
What a joke! Wow. "Laodicean mush" LOLOLOLOL

...while I realize all ultra conservatives do not hold this fellow brother-loathing view, there are sufficient numbers of them that are so bitter, angry and irrational, that if you look up bitter, angry and irrational in the dictionary...there's a photo of this guy!!
the fact is, I know quite a few of the guys that are involved in the exodus. I have come to have great respect for some men I have met online here and in other forums that are leaving the UPCI over this.
I do not agree with them on the issue and I think the contention all of this has caused can be blamed on EVERYBODY including these conservitives I respect.
but the vast majority of those I know are good Godly men. None of them have ever acted in such a depraived manner as this apostolic contender site. what a horrible representation of the Apostolic faith.
what miserable people. I am sad.

Don't know if it would even be possible for a district to leave.
I think that would just entail all of the churches leaving simutaneously and then sticking together through something of their own creation.
I do believe that many will leave, but it won't be done on a district level.
As for the Apostolic Contender...I looked in vain for who publishes this. Does anyone know???
I believe the "Caya" listed on the blog, is the same "Caya" that posts at GNC. Who to the best of my knowledge is a stay at home mom somewhere in New England.
