Nope...we're not hard enough...we let so much misinformation and illogical thinking permeate our ranks that it's a shame...
...sorry, but we need to address much of this silliness when it happens...

Jeans being a "down home" type of apparel...well, now you see???

Actually, I am very hurt over this. Men of whom I once held the highest regard, respect and admiration for have (I edited the last portion of this sentence).
No amount of holiness preaching that they might do will undo the damage done. It is trust and confidence betrayed.

Apprehended's assessment above addresses the heart of the issues that those who believe the WPF has a clear RIGHT to organize their fellowship; however, they have failed miserably in their attempt to do so in a RIGHT manner...that's the crux of the matter in a nutshell...

"The foundation of the UPCI has been altered. There are many UPC churches allowing thing to creep into the churches that would not had been allowed 10 – 20 years ago. It is not just with a few. In many many UPC churches the majority of the saints have a TV. If you get TV on your computer that is wrong also."
Hmmmm, call me liberal I guess because there's nothing wrong with the laity having television. I believe it's the ministry that are asked not to have one, so where is it wrong there? And furthermore, if you choose to have a television and can control what you watch, how is that wrong? It seems that there a lot of "gnats" flying around and getting caught in people's throats...

You might want to use the quote button so we know who you are talking to. This looks like you said all this and you were actually quoting the first sentence.

Correct WPF was not just created just because of TV. That was just the last straw.
No matter how the founders of WPF started the fellowship there would be some who still say it was unethical.
There was obviously a need for WPF or you would not be seeing so many pastor/ministers signing up with WPF.
I’m assuming you will find fault with each and every Pastor/Minister that goes with WPF. If that is the case you will be busy.
I do know some of (founders of WPF) these men and I feel the motives are not selfish in any way. These men are well respected and well liked men of God. Regardless to what you may say about these men.
Within a short time you will be hearing about a lot of other men of God that are well liked and well respected leaving the UPC and going WPF. Because there is a need.
Will a backslider recognize your church.
The foundation of the UPCI has been altered. There are many UPC churches allowing thing to creep into the churches that would not had been allowed 10 – 20 years ago. It is not just with a few. In many many UPC churches the majority of the saints have a TV. If you get TV on your computer that is wrong also.
Our people should look different inside and out. Because we are different.
Bring involved in UPC for as long as I have I would say there is more to UPC than meets the eye.
Time will tell
