No matter what side of the election story you as the Apostolic Assembly body are on, it seems that we agree on one thing. The CID is bad. One person wrote:So why waist so much money having an electoral convention add to that the time waist by 600+ MoG(7 AM to 6 PM) , if the Qualifying commission allowed the disqualification of the majority vote nominee.
This speaks clearly of the type of pastoral leadership we have in the Assembly. For not 1 on of the 600+ spoke out against the CID in the years prior to the election including all the Bishops!
I know some Pastor's look for yes men in their churches, those that will follow blindly, but these Pastor's should be held accountable as well for allowing this to happen. Pastor's need not be yes men and follow blindly in order that they can move to the next level.

This smacks 4 of the 9 problems that plagues our organization that a previous brother or sister articulated so well:
1. Authoritarian Hierarchy.
2. Lack of Accountability.
6.Local congregations not a true priority.
9. Organization more important than Jesus or people.
Demand that the CID is removed!
I'll wear this button at he convention.
1. It is not going against and does not disrespect any Man of God.
1. It is not going against and does not disrespect any Man of God.
2. It tells the Pastoral, Episcopal, and GB bodies that will not tolerate political tactics in the affairs of our desire to seeking God's plan in our organization!
3. It holds all that voted for it accountable to the entire Assembly constituency.
4. And It does so in a way that is respectful and in silent.
We could design different respectful signs referencing the CID and have them placed strategically throughout the conference. This will be more effective than any lawsuit.
