Praise the Lord people!
I just got home from the first night of MARC conference and BOY
WAS IT A BLAST!  The Holy Ghost was moving so strong from
the very first song to the last prayer at the altar.  God is
still moving, because I am to wired to go to bed!  Tonights
service we heard from Bro Jerry Jones and Bro NA Urshan.  Bro
Jones preached on how others can do their thing and not believe
what we believe and on how we can still love them since we are 
christians BUT we do not have to tolerate their ways.  He also
noted that it is time we as UPC'ers put a foot down on our beliefs.
We need to get it right in our hearts and not be undecided.  And
once we get the truth(God), we need to preach this truth to the lost.
And for those that go around talking about love and doing good works
for God, that won't save them, only being saved and living the truth
will.  A interesting story he said tonight I have to relate to you all,
it was about (fictional of course) 2 people who believed in different
things.  One believed strongly in their heart that the sun was 50
million miles away, while the other believed it was 150 million 
miles away.  Neither would agree on anything so each went out and
got followers and started groups.  Each group grew and expanded
world wide and both groups argued between each other on who was
right and who was wrong.  Well to make a long story short, BOTH
were wrong, the sun is 93 million miles away.  One group is 
going to freeze to death while the other fries to death!  The moral
to this story, both groups can argue all they want but that won't
make either of them right.  The truth will always be the truth
and until they turn to the truth, they will always be wrong.
I took this out of the story.  Whether you are oneness or trinitarian
the only truth is the Bible.  Read it and find the truth.  I have
and the one true God set me free.  He also stated for those that
like to argue that not all the scriptures are correct, the Bible
is God'd word.  The Truth is God.  It is either right or wrong, no
in between!  0%, or 100% you choose!  We need to take a stand for
the truth and not be afraid to be ridiculed for what we believe!
