It has been a very rewarding experience. We are finishing up our fourth Greek class....! We are currently in Church History as well. Very enlightening to say the least.

I have seen so many lies posted. The best one is the one Triumphant 1 did his best to combat. You know, the hair cutting party thing?

Prominent members of this board chose to believe the lie and even continue to spread it, even though T1 had totally proved it was false.

Did you take Church History in your undergrad?

I can understand that there are areas where people feel that diversity is good. I do. And I am glad that you have found somewhere that you are comfortable. But MANY in the UPC say very similar things.

Also when you comment --

Quote: Frankly speaking, I am not excited about Global being overrun by a bunch of liberal yet judgeing Oneness Pentecostal ministers who get all worked up over baptismal formulas and salvation necessity of Spirit baptism. I left the best Oneness Denomination going to get away from that mentality." -- you more than validate concerns that Oneness Apostolic's have over those in Global.

And this is a good thing to many others.

They are still in the same paradigm. Global is not for them. They wouldn't enjoy the fellowship.

For an example of how to behave when the individual over you is wrong I would respectfully suggest a look at the life of David.
Kings and Priests the Pastoral equivalent?

Hopefully you don't mind me jumping in.

The only high priest in the NT is Jesus Christ, the priesthood of Aron is done away with. Heb 6-8

All believers are both king and priest.

We are joint heirs with Christ.- Royalty

We can approach the holiest of holies ourselves- Priesthood

This does not negate the need of a pastor to lead the local assembly.

Come in the water is fine.


Yes indeed - joint heirs.

The question becomes, what does it mean to "lead" and does a Pastor have unquestionable authority in all things church?

I can't believe that stuff any more either.
