Letters When we only
have one letter I usually feel that it is my opportunity to either
talk about something that has been on my heart for a long time,
or just completely bore you with my life--so I decided to bore you--you
will understand after this intro why I don't blog! Our life is
crazy busy and it's rare that there isn't something going
on. Here is an example: In the past week, I have been to several
going away parties, a wedding, taken kids to camp every day (my
child plus friends), picked kids up from swimming (kids I look after),
helped with youth pastor's going away party, helped with Sacrifice
to Summons, had an allergic reaction, found out my brother could
possibly have cancer, gone on a trip, sold some furniture online--all
this besides all of the normal responsibilities of life. I'm tired,
and I want to just read a book and not converse with anyone, then
reality sets in and there just isn't time to completely retreat--that's
when I must stop myself and ask the Lord to help me and give
me peace. The amazing thing is in all the craziness, He always does--what
an amazing God! Thanks to everyone
who is submitting articles. If you haven't in a while, scribble
something down and send it in. The zine is about your Christian
journey. Re: “T
D Jakes at UPC in Brooklyn” Greetings. I
don't want to offend anyone. However, I have a concern and a question:
I purchased a teaching series on “The Tabernacle” by T D Jakes.
I purchased it because I have always enjoyed his preaching and remarkable
insights. However, in this teaching he mocks our holiness standards
making the erroneous statement that we believe that “Jesus died
for a dress code.” I have been in the Apostolic movement for 32
years now and have never heard any of our United Pentecostal preachers
say that Jesus died for a dress code. Should churches and Pastors
connected with the United Pentecostal Church be associating themselves
with someone who is disrespectful of our stand on separation from
the world? People get saved and delivered all the time in United
Pentecostal crusades and services without bringing in those who
would seem to be trying to undermine what we stand for. Is it not
an act of disrespect and lack of submission to the United Pentecostal
church for its ministers to invite people who mock us to their churches?
Just a question... Richard Ferguson,
