Yep ... if this was about the jewelry then

The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins, The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails would be sinful too ....

Do you feel it's a sin ?

Do you feel it's not a sin but should still be a standard ?


If you are OR you was a pastor, what would be your rule on this ?

No, it's not a sin.

As long as it is neat, it shouldn't be a standard.

My pastor allows facial hair.

according to historical references, a man without a beard is effiminate.

I don't think a pastor has a right to tell anyone in the church he pastors how to wear their hair on their head or on their face. If he wants to have a "professional" look on the platform or ministry team that is one thing. But where in the world does a man get that he has a right, responsibility or obligation to be the "appearance" police?

I am a pastor and my rule on this is that beards or mustaches are not preached against neither are they encouraged.But if one has one it is to be kept clean,well kept so as to not draw undue attention to oneself.

when did you start pastoring?
