Re: Is it a sin for women to shave, pluck or other

Ecc 12:8 Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher; all [is] vanity.

This is why this scripture is so valuable to us all;

Phl 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

I was one of those! :noidea

So, let me get this straight...

You got into church and you quit plucking your eyebrows and became an UC?

When I say, 'I toed the line.' Believe me...I TOED THE LINE. Hook, line and sinker.

Same thing I thought back then...ha...I think ladies should shave their legs and under their arms...

If someone feels different I respect their thoughts...however I do NOT have those convictions.
