Richard,

 R>Richard Masoner

I am glad to see that at least your part of the country feels that way.
 In the South East, Texas region of the USA, many UPC churches do not
"act" in that same manner.  I have heard TOO many messages from
preachers within the organization practically say the opposite, and
this is a shame.  It am glad to hear that SE Texas may be the exeption,
instead of the rule.  

And, on the other hand, I have also heard other organizations, and
independents, say the same thing.  This is also a shame, and a pity.

It is about time that ALL Oneness believers stand up for truth,
regardless of organizational ties, and preach the Gospel in unity.  I
know that there may be differences over organizational structure, etc,
but this does not mean that we teach different doctrine.  The Doctrine
of Jesus Christ has not changed within these 2000 years, and it will
not change.  The Word of God will not fail; yet we allow petty
differences divide us so many times.  I love God, and I love His
People, regardless of who they are, or to what organization they
belong.  

(I know this probably has been discussed before, but I just had to say
my part.  I do not mean to start any discussion, nor any disputes.  I
merely wish everyone to know how I feel and stand.)

Respectfully submitted,
