I have faith, and i DON'T think it's wrong for women to dress as men or vice versa! Women can wear whatever they want and look however they want, even if that makes them look just like a man. what would be wrong with a child being confused by this??? it would teach them that all people are different, and diversity is something that exists and is not a bad thing, no two people look the same or feel the same, or should! God wouldn't give us a dress code, thats lame. Why would he care what we wear or anything else about our physical appearance?? Thats all part of humanity, not spirituality or faith. I understand these things you people think, you are all only human and can not think of things in any other way, but it would not be wrong for everyone to be naked if they so chose, because that is how God created us and it is beautiful and not perverse, perverse thoughts are in the mind of those that have them, and not created by those that inspired them. I also have seen supposed proof that the bible says being gay is wrong, and it's all bunk. homosexuality occurs naturally in almost all animal species on earth, it is purely genetic! Sodomy is also shamefully mistranslated, it is NOT just anal intercourse between two men, it is any deviant sexual act! This means that any sexual act other than vaginal sex is equally sinful. I know plenty of teenagers then that are commiting just as much sin as a gay man!! Two humans sharing love and being in love and in the love of God is NOT wrong in any way, love is beautiful and wonderful, no matter what sex the people sharing it are! This is the TRUTH, and anyone who thinks differently has been lied to so much that they believe what is completely against what is obvious. love is love, period. sex can be an expression of love, and is not a wrong way for two people born homosexual to express their love for each other! it dosn't hurt anyone, and brings them closer in sharing that pure love for each other, which is not sinful in any way. Thats my 2 cents, i'm right, and if only everyone agreed with me people could be a lot more peaceful and learn to accept and understand each other for who they are, Gods equal children. |

I am a Christian raised in the UPC. The particular church that I have attended for the past twelve years does not look down on women for cutting their hair. It does not beleive that they are the only ones who will be allowed into heaven. And they definately do not judge other religions on being right or wrong in their beliefs. As far as they're concerned that is none of their business until they step foot into that building where our church congregates. It is by far not a cult! I am a God fearing gay man also. Yes, I know that the act of sex between two men is wrong according to the old testament. But I do not beleive that I am going to go to hell because of the sexual acts that I have been involved in. I have not come across any scriptures in the New Testament of the King James Version of the bible that says anything of the sorts. If anyone else has than please feel free to email me and let me know where in the New Testament these scriptures are located. I beleive in one true god. I beleive that people can worship god in the bathtub naked for all he cares. Naked, in pants, a skirt, or whatever. Just as long as they worship him from the heart. Tongues is a form of prayer that happens when a person is in the complete presence of God. This is way of prayer that allows Man to speak to God. It keeps others as well as the devil from understanding what you are praying about. Anyway, that is my understanding of it. |

You said "I do not believe I am going to hell because of the sexual acts I have been involved in." I am not judging you, let's get that straight. I am only going to tell you what I see in my bible. (KJV). As you said homosexuality is condemned in the Old Testatment. And I say homosexuality not the homosexual. But although there is a new covernant and with the New Testament you can't completely disregard what was written in the old. In the Old Testament murder was condemned also. But you can't completely disregard that even if it had never been mentioned in the New Testament. We all know murder is not right. God loves everyone the same no matter religion, race, natural origin, or sexual preference. He made us all. And each person has the chance to be saved and inherit the kingdom. If you are Christian you know this already. But there are some things that are not pleasing to God. Although homosexuality is not something God is please with, he loves the person. The person can still be saved. Please read 1 Corithians 6:9 and Romans 1: 24-32 Some people will twist these verses to say something other than what they really mean. If you think these verses are translated wrong, how do you really know which verses to believe. Which verses really hold the truth? God is more powerful than we can imagine and I don't think he would allow misinterpretation to happen. After you read those verses, read Romans 8:1-5 No one is without hope no matter what the situation is. |

Pentecostal minister pleads guilty to sexual misconduct By Susan Weich Post-Dispatch 02/20/2003 09:20 PM A former top official of the Pentecostal church pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor sexual misconduct charge that came after he tried to engage in a sex act with another man in a St. Charles park. The Rev. Ronald Oree Nation, 70, was the Sunday School director of the United Pentecostal Church International. The denomination, based in Hazelwood, claims 2.6 million members worldwide, including 760,000 in this country. Nation was among 11 men arrested after a two-month undercover police investigation last fall at DuSable Park, which is near the Missouri riverfront and the Katy Trail. Police say the men propositioned the officers on a back parking lot at the north end of the park. ... Formal charges were filed against only three other men in the investigation. Their cases are still pending. Nation was suspended without pay from his church post after the charges became public. He had planned to retire on Feb. 1. The Rev. Jerry Jones, general secretary of the United Pentecostal Church International, did not return phone calls Thursday. seen at http://tinyurl.com/6a68 |

I agree that to control another persons thoughts is mind control. It is very sick and sad that so much of this is in the world today. We really do need support to combat it. But, I also must say that an adult who is not causing harm to themselves or others, is in no way in a cult. Regardless of how they choose to wear their hair, where they choose to live, etc. Even though, many of us may see it as awful. Isn't that what American freedom is all about? I am just curious to know exactly what faith each of you believe. Especially, those of you who are so against the Pentecostal denomination. This is my very first post, as I have just stumbled across this message board. I will be checking it from time to time. I am really interested in hearing each of your ideas, opinions and stories. |

Pentecostals SHOULD be ashamed! Watching the documentary, HELL HOUSE, can leave a bad taste in any Christian's mouth. I find it very disturbing that these people (pentecostals) are spewing such filth.. and using such scare tactics in the name of Christ. Let's say a quick prayer: "Jesus, protect me... protect me from these followers." One young lady summed it up rather nicely. She stated what an UGLY & HORRIBLE world we live in... but that is good... because, we know these are the days Jesus returns. The pentecostals talked about how these are the worst of days... we have homosexuality, abortion, rape, murder, thievery, etc. I know.... name me a TIME PERIOD that DID NOT have any of the above???? I can name SEVERAL different ERAS in our existence that are FAR FAR worse than today. Pentecostals: Be ashamed! Be ashamed that you bring FEAR to the young mind and heart. That you lure souls into your ugly world.... one that is NOT GODLY. Christ has MUCH MORE to offer than what you profess. |

DEAR COYOTE: THIS POST IS FROM CURIOUS ABOVE. I POSTED ANONYMOUS BECAUSE I DIDN'T REMEMBER MY PASSWORD. AS FOR THE DOCUMENTARY 'HELL HOUSE', I DIDN'T SEE IT. SO, I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT EXACTLY HAS CHARGED YOUR ANGER. JESUS DID SAY THAT IN THE LAST DAYS THE LOVE OF MANY WOULD GROW COLD. AND, THAT LAWLESSNESS WOULD ABOUND. I DON'T PERSONALLY BELIEVE HE WAS TALKING ABOUT GENERAL SOCIETY, BUT WITHIN THE CHURCH ITSELF. MEANING THAT THE LOVE OF MANY IN THE CHURCH WOULD GROW COLD AND THAT LAWLESSNESS WOULD ABOUND IN THE CHURCH. HE DIDN'T TELL US THIS FOR NO REASON. WE NEED TO HEED HIS VOICE, STAY CLOSE TO HIM, AND GIVE OUR HEARTS TO HIM. HE WILL NEVER LEAD US ASTRAY. HE WILL LEAD UPON THE RIGHT PATH. HE LETS US SEE CLEARLY WHEN THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE PICTURE. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ADD THAT NOT ALL PENTECOSTAL CHURCHES ARE THE SAME. YOU REALLY CAN'T JUDGE THEM ALL BY ONE OR TWO. THAT WOULD BE LIKE JUDGING A WHOLE RACE OF PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THE FOOLISH ACTS OF A FEW. IF THE DEBATE IS TO BE OPEN-MINDED AND FAIR, GIVE SOME THOUGHT TO WHAT I HAVE JUST SAID. |

I'm a former UPCI Minister. By the grace of God I'm no longer a member of this heretical group. They deny the Trinity, the Finish work of Calvary, the doctrine of Grace, legalistic, teach you must speak in tongues & be baptize in Jesus Name to be saved. I wonder how the deaf can speak in tongues? God makes it clear in Scripture how to be saved "John 3:16, Acts 2:21, 4:12, 16:30-31, Romans 10:9-10." We are to be believe in Jesus, and its only by God's grace anyone is saved "not by their made up works," Ephesians 2:1-9. Yes, the Oneness Movement is heretical, and the United Pentecostal Church is a cult!!!!! |

"oneness" Church a Cult & Threat to Christianity! http://www.celticpandc.com/warning-united.pentacostal.html This church is also plagued with various legalistic doctrines to which members MUST adhere. This is done in order for the members of the Church to Judge them as Christian in GOOD STANDING and be even considered a Christian. One of these I find totally out of place in the Church today and the note that women are "a lesser vessel."Many of these standards have also been developed only since the early 1900's .i.e. You are not a Christian if you do not Speak in Tongues, Women must wear their hair Long and no Jewellery and makeup. They teach that unless you're baptized using the correct formula....theirs!....you're not really saved. One must ask the pastor for almost anything and any decision in life. (many of these things verge on the thinking of a Cult-I dare say that the Bible and Jesus never made specific clothing and the way you wear your hair a demand. This conforming to what everyone else is doing in the church is DANGEROUS.)I must ask that the person think that only our God has a right to Judge us as Christian or not! To be a Christian must one check their brain at the door of the church? The UPCI thinks so! (they are false teachers and prey on the human nature of man!.)...How? Answer: The apostle Peter wrote describing Paul's epistles, "...in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction" (2 Peter 3:16).I believe that there are many individual powerful practices which characterize the methods of deception employed by false teachers. The twisting of Scripture is universal among them. Few, if any, people go into a cult or aberrant religious movement by reading the Bible alone! They must have some help from false teachers. These false teachers must come to terms with the authority of Scripture. They deal deceptively with this issue in several ways. (the UPCI fails to see that Jesus himself says that all of his authority comes from the Father and that he is dependent on the Father) For instance, one approach is to give respect to the Bible but teach that it cannot be fully trusted. (this the UPCI does in taking on the King James Version of the Bible which is a Transliteration of the Bible not a direct translation. They brush off versions like the RSV which is a translation as it was written according to them by "liberals." So far I have not seen the reason they are liberals! They feel that the K.J. VERSION is the only one that supports their position on the church and all outside extra-Biblical study and Creeds are just that of men and are not to be studied. They miss quote scholars etc.) ,They teach for example that books must have been lost or that texts were altered.(the UPCI feels that the resurrection story as told by the Gospel and the great commission to go out and Baptize in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost was added scripture) Bible verse is sprinkled liberally in the books to make it appear that the student is studying the Bible. The result is that the Bible is really only being used as a reference book. One can make the Bible prove anything used in this manner. This approach is typical of the Society of Jehovah's Witnesses.The Bible warns about these tactics as Paul compares his true ministry to the false apostles', "But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully..." (2 Corinthians 4:2). Describing the methods and motives of the false prophets and teachers, Peter says that,"many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you..." (2 Peter 2:2-3). How does this happen? I believe the average church member is conditioned for it. Rather than follow God's direction and "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth" (2 Timothy 2:15), the average Christian's approach is to expect others to teach them. This leaves the door open to a false leader to by use of orthodox wrapping have a gift of the word inside that is no longer holding to scripture, but that of the opinion of the leader or others. Sometimes this comes from reading the Bible in a literal sense in modern thought rather than consulting what it meant in 1st Century thought. Additionally, there has been of a lack of emphasis on teaching sound, foundational doctrine in the church. Again, God warns His church concerning this (Ephesians 4:11-15; Colossians 2:6-7). Christians must learn to feed themselves as well as give attention to the sound, established, systematic doctrine that has stood the test of time and solid scholarship. (The Orthodox church has withstood the test of time! (The UPCI contend that they are the only ones that are going to heaven-Do you not see something wrong here?) The UPCI counts on the fact that most Christians are not familiar with Greek and Hebrew nor the way to study the Scriptures with objective study helps They do not feel that they should directly look at the words in terms of the period they were spoken but it is right to translate them for today directly.(they even come to the aide of this by officially prohibiting their followers from reading books by scholars that have studied the Bible.) Many do not even read a whole book in the Bible through for its intended context. Therefore, when a false teacher comes with a plausible argument and presents what appears to be a scholarly approach, the novice is impressed. (This to me is a form of Brainwashing in that they have captured the disciple with somewhat orthodox teaching and then the disciple does not any longer question what is stated.) They also use this to say that you will not be happy or have salvation if you leave this church. They will shun you at the store or on the street. It is a way of playing with your mind. They make you feel that they are the only way that the sins they concentrate on are able to be forgiven is if you remain in the cult. They thus twist Scripture through pseudo-scholarship, by deleting and inserting words, by focusing on texts out-of context, and by employing collapsing contexts (unrelated verses put together to say something different).I encourage the Christian to become a student of God's word. The truth of God's Word working with the illuminating and empowering Holy Spirit transforms the Christian into how he is intended to experience life, being conformed to His image.Jesus prayed "Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth" (John 17:17). |

If You Are Truly Sincere About Wanting To Know The Truth, He Will Not allow You To Be deceived.He Destroyed Sodom Because Of Sin And That Is One Thing He Will Not Change His Mind About.

Dear friends, I come from a hindu background and my encounter with Jesus transformed my life. Every denominations has it's own faults. The Pentacostal movement started in 1901, turning the world upside down, with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, which was prophesied by Joel the prophet in Joel 2. The movement was started by people who weren't very educated.Their view of holiness was mostly legalistic. They thought holiness was the way they dressed, and the way they walked. But the movement brought back the life-changing experience of the Holy Spirit baptism back to the church, marking the latter rain prophesied by the prophet Joel and later in the new testament by James. It wasn't a fashionable thing to belong to Pentacost. They were often scorned at and persecuted. Later in 1960s came the Charismatic movement. It became a fashion to be called a Charismatic, that even secular people started using the term. Charismatics brought in a lot of false doctrines with it, one of them being 'once saved always saved doctrine'. People lost the value of true holiness. They lost the truth about being separated from sin and the world. But the bible is crystal clear that without holiness no man will see the Lord. That's strong, but yet it is true. People say that Charismatic movement is the next great wave after Pentacost, but that isn't true. I believe Charismatic movement is the dirt in between two great waves. No, don't get me wrong, I am addressing to the unholy activities that they introduced and manifestations they attribute to the Holy Spirit, which mostly has nothing to do with the Holy Spirit. The only condition to be saved is, to be born-again and that means to be cleansed of ones sin through the blood of Jesus. The bible doesnot teach that you have to baptized in the Holy Spirit to be saved. Yet, the bible teaches that every born-again soul must be filled with the Holy Spirit to make the rapture. There is much contention and blasphemous teachings when it comes to the evidence of the Holy Spirit baptism. The bible is crystal clear about the requirements of salvation: confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead. Does this mean, that the dumb cannot be saved? Does this mean that the deaf cannot be saved? Something to think about. The initial evidence of the Holy Spirit baptism is speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. I say this so that no one will push off this evidence to be of the devil and there by blasphemy the Holy Spirit. Whoever is baptized in the Holy Spirit will speak in tongues, just like whoever is willing to be baptized will get wet. It's that simple. Christians fight over this bible teaching because they lack the knowledge of scriptures. They confuse the gift of tongues to the initial evidence of the Holy Spirit baptism. If you study the 5 experiences in the book of Acts: Act2, Act8, Act9, Act10 and Act 19, closely with 1 Corinthians 14 you will understand the difference between the gift of tongues and the initial evidence. For those who want this biblical experience and for those who crave for more of God can mail me. I am not here to debate on the Word of God. The Word of God is not debatable. The bible makes things so simple and clear, it's man who complicates things. God bless. Sidharth |

Jesus said that those who believe will speak in new tongues in Mark 16. In the experiences in the book of Acts, we find ALL who recieved the Holy Spirit spoke in tongues. In Act 2, we find there were 120 assembled and they were ALL filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak in tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. Again in Act 10, Cornelius and all his household recieved the Holy Spirit, and the Jews knew this, 'for' they spoke in tongues. Later in Ephesus, Paul meets with a group of disciples and thinking they were Jesus' disciples was led to ask, whether they received the Holy Spirit since they believed, but they responded saying 'We have not even heard there is a Holy Spirit!'. Paul immediately asks with what baptism they were baptized into, because in water baptism one is to be baptized in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. They were John's disciples and were just baptized in John's baptism. Later Paul preaches to them, baptizes them in water and when he placed his hands on them , they ALL received the Holy Ghost and spoke in tongues. Regarding those places where the evidence is not mentioned we find there was a physical evidence in Act 8, for Simon sawthem receiving the Holy Spirit and asked the apostles to give him the gift of calling down the Holy Spirit on whoever he places his hands on. In Paul's case, Paul says he spoke in tongues more than others in 1 Cor 14. I don't wish to go through the entire chapter of 1 Corinthians 14. I believe I can show you the difference of the gift of tongues from the initial evidence with few scriptures: As I said before ALL in the above three cases received the Holy Spirit and spoke in tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. Paul instructed believers to speak in tongues at the most 2 or 3 at a time. If Act2, Act10, and Act19 was dealing with the same 'tongues', then the Holy Spirit was promoting disorder. Moreover, Paul instructs that there must be interpretations. But in none of the experiences were there any interpretations. In Mark 16, we find those who believe will lay hands on the sick they would recover. Does this mean every one who believes has the 'gift' of healing? No! The same way, all do not have the gift of tongues. Though the gift of tongues and the prayer tongue are similar in operation, they are different in function. All gifts are to profit withal. The gift of tongues is always clubbed with the gift of interpretation, and is to edify the church. But the prayer tongue mentioned in 1 Cor 14:3 edifies the person alone. 1 Corinthians 14 is divided into 3 parts: first it speaks clearly speaks about the prayer tongue, moves onto the gift of tongues and in between tells us how tongues can be used to worship God. But in all things order must be maintained in the Church. |

MARK DAVIDSON writes: "Homosexuality occurs naturally in almost all animal species on earth, it is purely genetic! """" What is your evidence? So far, there has not been any evidence for a genetic basis for homosexual behaviour. Homosexuality is a psychosexual disorder. It has been this way (OFFICIALLY) till 1973. But was hijacked by a Homosexual Psychiatrist who lobbied for deleting this as a psychosexual disorder by the American Psychiatric Association. Dr.Spitzer was the President.. He made this official. In 1973 the term Homosexuality as a psychosexual disorder was deleted from the Diagnostic and statistical Manual. However, 2 years ago, he changed his position that homosexuals can change their lifestyles. Anton Lavey was grieving over his lover's untimely death. He determined to find out the cause for Homosexuality. He studied brain and suggested that the homosexual brain is smaller than the normal brain. This was the sloppiest study ever reported. This came under severe attck and Lavey left Science and has become a homosexual activist. Homosexuality is still a psychosexual disorder characterised by compulsive and addictive behaviour. Bible forbids homosexual behaviour. Leave alone the Bible. Common sense dictates that sex can only be between the opposite sexes. |

Talk about people who are dying of thirst and at the same time making fun of those who are drinking from an everlasting pool of water! Some people in here think they are saved, and they accuse others of not being saved. I wonder who gave them the authority to make such judgments. Jesus obviously didn't, for He said He wasn't sent to condemn the world, but the save. Then who could have send them? Makes me wonder if they know to whom they belong to. Arron, I'm glad you're a Pentacostal! You believe in power from on high. You haven't let man's opinion about God's Word hinder you from going into the fulness of God. But I need to encourage you to keep going. There is "Beyond Zone", in which very few Christians have crossed. The early Church lived in that Zone, but the Church in this hour has yet to move into that Zone. The ZOne of God's abundance. God wants you to be soaked in His Spirit, and being yielded to His love 24 hours around the clock. This is the time to come out of your denominations and go on with God to places men haven't travelled: To be Elijah's , John's, Stephan's and Paul's for God. Blessings on you, dear Arron. I trust God to keep you safe till His coming. Because of the Blood-Love, Sidharth |
