I heard the same thing about outreach at our church. This was a major issue for me…how can we not be in our community helping those in need?!?! It was so bizarre to me.
At first, I sort of accepted it because it relieved us of the responsibility to help others. But as I got older, I realized that was a terrible stance to take and that we ought to go out of our way to help others, even if sometimes it's inconvenient. It doesn't have to be something big, but doing absolutely zero is the worst possible position as a church to maintain regarding helping those in need within our communities.
Apostolic here. Sorry to hear this brother. That church you went to was totally TOXIC, CONTROLLING and MANIPULATIVE. Although there are many churches like this in the UPC there are some that are healthy. Hope you find healing some day from this spiritual abuse. Bless
I'm not super familiar with "independent apostolic" but I suspect they're probably more on the extreme end of the apostolic spectrum. And the Branhimites are unquestionably a cult.

Don't believe in organization churches only independent I grew up Baptist and cogic church of God in Christ so yea but now independent Apostolic

Can I get some clarity? Andrew, are you suggesting the Bible has nothing to say about homosexual practices?
I 'd like to share my stories about my time in the UPCI before leaving the faith earlier this month?
I’d love to get in touch! How can I connect with you?
I recommend messaging me on my Instagram page. If that does not work, please share your email address. Thank you.
