Are you now saying that those cons are right? Is a woman who wears jeans or sleeveless shirts a sinner? Are you qualified to make that assessment?

Well, maybe you are knocking on the door to the barn mistaking it for the house...
What I am questioning is the motive and intent of an individual who is making an attempt to BE separate from the mainstream, so they make an attempt to LOOK separate from the mainstream. This in my mind is shallow separation, because it is based on outward and fleshly ability. I am also questioning the contemporary message of Separation from the world that used to be preached under the heading of holiness standards.
Only the old school preachers even use that terminology anymore because the contemporary belief is that NO, you cannot do anything to be more HOLY in the eyes of the Lord. I can't remember the last time I heard the term Holiness Standards come out of the mouth of a preacher, but I hear separation from the world, constantly. I am just calling for folks to be honest with themselves even if it challenges their cultural foundations.
