'nuff sed www.forestlakechurch.org Registered: 07/08/00 Posts: 1695 Loc: Apopka, FL. USA	Perhaps most other conferences have decided to 'stick with organizational protocol' instead of telling the GC that they no longer have authority over Unions and Conferences and if the GC doesn't like it....TOUGH..... Nuff Sed

teresaq(sda) Learning to take it to Jesus Registered: 04/01/09 Posts: 8411 Loc: Same as home church	According to the manual the GC doesn't have authority over the unions in this regard. It is to the unions discretion, solely, as I understand it. which would make the GC overstepping their boundaries to interfere. _________________________ 2Ti 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 1Jn 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. Joh 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

'nuff sed www.forestlakechurch.org Registered: 07/08/00 Posts: 1695 Loc: Apopka, FL. USA	Yeah, I suppose that the Columbia Union might possibly decide that we don't have to keep the Sabbath anymore and have a special session to do away with it. Nuff Sed
