2014 UPCi General Conference Report

Did any members attend or watch online the 2014 UPCI General Conference this past week? If so we need some reports on the business meetings any resolutions considered or passed and the preaching / teaching sessions.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"

Looks like it was a nice corporate conference that raised lots of money and encouraged the faithful to hold on to the corporate culture while doing their best to grow the corporation

LOL! You used to be vehemently virulent as a UPCIer and now you are the same against them.

What's wrong with that? Isn't that the goal of The Church of God? to grow?

I understand there is legitimate criticism of the UPC but sometimes it seems like you guys will attack anything just for sport.

It takes time to get passed that. It's a stage. Hopefully she'll grow out of it. Some never do.
