Re: IM slipping, I know you guys are shocked...in

I once heard an elder tell a young man to take a bit of time and prayerfully create a list of God given convictions and to keep it in a safe place adding to the list as he would grown in grace. But his greatest admonition was to NEVER EVER remove or comprimise one conviction..because when you begin removing those convictions and letting down the gates you have no control over where the comprimise may lead. It is my goal to grow and "evolve" stronger in my walk with God and committment HIm.

Not a slippery slope but a growing in grace..ever climbing and reaching for Him.

Can I ask a honest question? Can you cut a tree (any regular tree) and put it in your house NOT for christmas but just for interior decoration purposes?

Re: IM slipping, I know you guys are shocked...in

Trying to say someone is worshipping a Christmas tree just because they have one as a decoration in their home is as absurd as saying they worship their vacuum cleaner because they own one.

"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."
