I never suspected you SDA!

I never suspected you SDA! To answer the OP: No, that will never happen. As I just said about another comment, 'Always the gentleman DS' Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

I certainly think the COG should modify or change some of it's policies. I think, guidelines should be set up for states to have a binding vote on it's leaders.There should be a sunshine rule of the fiscal church, top to bottom.I also think a period of time should be set to transfer ownership of church property to the local churches. There may be a lot of complications in the above, it might be impossibe, I do not know, someone smarter than I could surely phase them in.BUT then all of those have been discussed in depth here, methinks Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

Rather than expecting the impossible (a change in the COG)

although you ALL ARE men/women of Faith, you could just transfer your credentials to a more accommodating Fellowship that has a better polity. I don't know where you might find such a place although I once heard about a group that is based out of SW Missouri. Just sayin....

Have you ever noticed ...

Have you ever noticed when you speak to an independent church pastor he will tell you about the oversight group his church is under, and when you speak to a denominational pastor he will often say, well, I'm of them, but not with them?So the denominational churches are often busy hiding who they are behind different church names and buried links on their website, while independent churches often tout who their Apostolic oversight is. We may need more of one and less of the other. Or is it less of one and more of the other?

Stop confusing me Mat, I having enough trouble trying to go to the correct public bathroom! Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/
