Ladies as an" Ultra-Con" ( used to be called just a good Holiness Brother )I do sincerely love you. Please consider at least giving up makeup in every form (as a starter). It is not healthy , physically or emotionally and as a person created in God'd Holy image it hurts me to see you feel like you need to be made up to appear acceptable to the worldly society. My wife is 36 and has never worn ANY form of makeup including shoe polish on her eyes ( Apostolic reference).The whole JCM episode stirred me strongly in the Holy Ghost and I can say I'm determined with the help of the Lord to stand for holiness and separation.
I want to also say that I teach my children to love women wearing makeup etc. It seems like many liberals "think" we teach our children hate, well I have NEVER seen that to be the case. I have had family members and friends through the years compromise on the dress code and separation from the world and it was not long until more sin was made clearly manifest.
With Love From the heart of a Young Preacher

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
From a senior believer, Bro. you really should be like Jesus and focus on the heart, and let the outside be dealt with by the individual and their Lord. Your position on makeup should be your and your wife's decision and your relationship to your Lord. And make sure it is based on scripture and not on a sixty year old religious tradition.

Yo Yiso! Do you really think your appeal will be received?
I am not anti separation per se, however, unless you show scriptural prohibition who possibly will (or should) receive you?
Separation for the sake of separation produces separateness but not godliness.
Should we not be as much like the culture we are trying to reach as possible?
Realizing there are limits involving sinful behavior and such, it is incumbent on you to show how wearing any makeup is sin or sinful. How is a small amount of makeup on a zit a bad thing? How is foundation for these ladies "not healthy , physically or emotionally"?
I don't know that there is any makeup in our home, but I would think twice before I determined one was somehow unholy if they had some on.

Dear friend we do not participate in the RCC holiday of X-Mass . Thankfully my nine year old son can read and comprehend more Hebrew than most Oneness preachers so I believe that we will continue with Kittel's Hebrew Text.(YALE) This is based upon the Masoretic text, which was of course used as a bases for the KJV.
In other words I covet your prayers to be an accurate and adequate teacher.
Well, now that you mention it, he did imply it was sin, didn't he. (Said it wasn't long before more sin came along.) OK. Blast away.
But really, he is entitled to his opinions. And maybe he's right, as I've said before: maybe God really does have a list of dressing and grooming requirements for us.

I think we can make a Biblical case that your midnight STREAKING has got to stop Timmy.
