From TVs to Shorts: How UPCI Standards Slowly Collapsed

Full Podcast:    • Is the UPCI a Cult? With Andrew De La Rosa...   All Interviews:    • Our Stories   ______________________ John and his guest walk through the lived experience of growing up under UPCI standards and the quiet disappearance of once-salvific rules like banning televisions, movies, and certain clothing. Drawing from history, personal memory, and broader Pentecostal context, they explore how extra-biblical rules were enforced, normalized, and later abandoned without explanation. The discussion raises deeper questions about authority, holiness, and spiritual burden: what happens when rules claimed to be essential for salvation quietly vanish, and why those rules existed in the first place. This conversation examines how man-made standards affected faith, identity, and conscience, and why many former UPCI members began asking whether obedience was about Christ or control. 00:00 UPCI Standards and Extra-Biblical Rules 01:47 The Ban on Television and Movies 02:26 Quietly Dropped Rules and Modern Reality 03:02 Rules as Resistance to Change 03:44 From Suede Shoes to Elvis 04:23 Salvation, Rules, and Authority 05:12 The Spiritual Burden of Standards 06:13 Encountering Faith Outside UPCI Rules 07:22 Questioning Holiness and Control ______________________ Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR: Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________ – Support the channel:   / branham   – Subscribe to the channel:    / @leavingthemessage   – Visit the website: https://william-branham.org – Follow on Facebook:   / williambranhamorg   – Follow on TikTok:   / william.m.branham   – Follow on Twitter:   / wmbhr   – Buy the books: https://william-branham.org/site/books
