So exactly how does one demonstrate ‘pro-God’? Does not one have to at least attempt to familiarize ones self with the WORD in order to have even the most elementary of discussion. Now I will await the ‘command’ that put you in charge of what is or is not ‘pro-God’!

We are told to try the spirits, to see whether they are of God or not:

1Jn_4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Preaching a different Gospel than that passed on to us by the Apostles is serious business:

Gal 1:6-9 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: (7) Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. (8) But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. (9) As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

This does not refer to things of “doubtful disputation”:

Rom 14:1-5 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations. (2) For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs. (3) Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him. (4) Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand. (5) One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

(Ironically, dietary and holy day commandments are two of the major things the UCG “disputes” about. They are majorly important to the UCG’s theology.)

It refers to those central tenets of Christianity which no one can reasonably deny and still call themselves Christian. I don’t think I need to give a complicated explanation of why believing in two Gods, and of people entering into the Godhead, is a serious problem.
