Talk:Alliance World Fellowship

message: In the listing of beliefs, it states The Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ is imminent and will be personal, visible, and premillennial. This is the believer's hope and is a vital truth that is an incentive to holy living and faithful service. What does "premillennial" mean? Is that before the turn of the next millenium? --Habap 21:28, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Premillenialism is a view of the end-times that essentially states that Christ will return for believers before the thousand-year reign spoken of in the book of Revelation.  See Premillennialism. raekwon 23:05, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

message: How do we decide who a prominent member is?  Specifically why is Cam Ward on the list?

text: Some sources say Jon Lynn Christensen is a member, but others seem to contradict that. Anyone know?--T. Anthony (talk) 04:25, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Ummm, the one C&MA church I've been to claimed to have successfully converted the chief of the Saudi secret police and the foreign minister of Uzbekistan.  While I'm sure they do have famous and important followers, I'd take their claims on the matter with a grain of salt... 213.181.226.21 (talk) 14:00, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Redlinked "prominent members" removed

message: * Ethel Bell, missionary, survived 20 days with her two children in the North Atlantic after the West Lashaway was sunk by a German U-boat
* Lorna Dueck, host of Listen Up TV
* Howard O. Jones, Billy Graham's first African-American evangelist, author
* Reuben Larson, co-founder of HCJB
* David Paul Rader, evangelist, Christian radio pioneer, and C&MA president
Howard O. Jones is listed as an official worker in the C&MA 2009 Official Directory. Perhaps he was removed as a red link because there is no content on his article? I plan to restore him as a prominent member minus the redlink, unless Wikipedia automatically makes it a redlink. Is it acceptable to restore David Radar as a deceased former member?--Myheck (talk) 00:11, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: List

message: Ok so I just discovered that while the C&MA started the US there are independent C&MA organizations in other countries which are autonomous to the US denomination. The different churches are connected through the [Alliance World Fellowship] which provides "a non-legislative means of consultation and cooperation among the world community of the member churches". This article seems to be very US centric. My question is should this article stay focused on the C&MA church based in the US or should it become a page for the international C&MA movement and sub articles be made for each of the national churches. This is the approach that the Assemblies of God has taken. Either way this needs to be decided as if each one is atonomous then it makes it difficult to write about the specific polities and ministries of each church in one article.

thread_title: What should this article be about?

message: The AWF is not the CMA. It is a completely different organization that is run completely separate. The AWF has its roots in the Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA). That statement is pulled right from the AWF website. It does not say it is the CMA, which obviously it is not as it is called something totally different. They are two separate organizations. They obviously have similar goals but CMA is a US based organization. Chris1834 Talk 22:42, 28 June 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  CMA 

message: Hello, is true that the AWF has its roots in the Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA), but according to this website; 
http://www.cmalliance.org/about/family/national-office
"The National Office: Located in Colorado Springs, CO, the National Office of the U.S. Christian and Missionary Alliance is home to the majority of administrative offices for The Alliance."
The CMA office in Colorado Springs is the US office and is not the world headquarters. According to this website;
http://www.awf.nu/about-us/introduction/
"The Alliance World Fellowship (AWF) unites churches and ministries in a mission-minded denomination with partners in many nations."
The AWF is the international organization of the CMA and represents the global union of CMA churches. 
Thank you and have a great day. - ServB1 (talk) 01:38, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Some of the problems with the editing of this page have been that although the page is about the C&MA, most of the information is based around the US region of the denomination. I have begun sandboxing a revamped article that focuses on the denomination as a whole. Whether regional pages are then created for the 5 regions can be decided but I think all that information could easily fit on the main page. Chris1834 Talk 13:53, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
