Would you let an Ex-UPC, Not-standards keeping Pastor Baptize your converts?

Is it OK to let an EX-UPC, Non-Traditional UPC standards keeping Pastor to Baptize converts in Jesus Name???

Would you let him Baptized your Youth????

Bishop David Ellis told a story years ago he said he was driving in Detroit and a drunk nearly stepped in front of his car. He stopped and assisted the man into his car to take him home before the man got run over. He thought this is perfect time to be a personal witness. He said sir have you ever thought about changing your life and going to church. The man became indignent and said I goes to church I am one of Bishop Ellis' saints! He preached about what one of HIS saints would be.

Cooper, when in High School we did not attend a UPC church. Rather than have the AOG man baptize my friend wrong, I did it in our bathtub. Rather than them tell him he was saved, we proceeded to pray him through to the Holy Ghost in our Kitchen. We ended at near 3 AM.

Okay Cooper, I can't help myself, is there a reason you are asking? You aren't looking for another reason to be disgruntled at the UPCI are you?

I think he is trying to ask you cons if you would allow another truth believer that did not have standards, but everything else, baptize in your church.

If you say no then you all would be much, much, much more conservative and judgmental than you already look.

Well, I have to agree with Bro. Epley here. Why would you have someone that didn't agree with your teachings baptize your converts? I'm not aware of any church that would do that.

Are you really asking if they think the baptism is valid if done by an ex-UPC, non-standards keeping pastor?
