In fact, I think if some people didn't have those fences up, they would be lost in the world. I would never tell someone to change or that they were wrong for making those consecrations, and I would expect the same respect.

HOWEVER, if your church does look at it like personal conviction, then someone with pants and cut hair should be allowed to sing a special. If not, then that's basically telling them they aren't pleasing God with their life...

Guess I just don't know exactly where you stand?
On the pants issue - my best friend thinks this is hilarious. She wears pants, but not to church. I can't wear them because I feel sexual in them. She laughs her head off over that. I'm sure it was from my bartending days, but really, I will always feel that way about pants personally. I don't look down on others, but that is why I don't and can't wear them, plus they are uncomfortable.
