More than one message though. It takes a lot of teaching, prayer, study of the Word, etc for someone to change the paradigm in which they view standards.

We don't want to tear up a church. People naturally resist change. We need the unity of the Spirit so that we can keep reaching the lost while these things are worked out. JMO :-)

you are joking...right?
what does the UPCI have to do anything? it is just a club of ministers...who by-the-way can't agree on alot of things...just add this to the list.
why would you think it is necessary for some outside source to make this decision for you?

Ahem;
UCP Handbook, pg 272, article 2, para 4!
I quote:
We adjure all of our ministers to preach to their respective people, specifically "A QUIET PLACE" that women aught not to wear pants!!!
End quote of the UCP manual!

You're preaching false doctrine, because 'A Quiet Place' is not, and never has been, UPC. (or UCP)
Attended an AMF church for several years, but otherwise it's been independent churches. So there!

I know, I know, that's why I used the UCP as opposed to UPC.
I know the UPC manual used to specifically name that, but it has been years since I have been in so I don't know now.
Just givin you a hard time because you asked!

I know, I was giving you a hard time back.
UCP - United Crazy People? That's an organization I could fit right into!
