True and uncompromising SEPARATION???
 

I was reading today about how folks in the bible put on sackloth when they were of a repentant state or when they were mourning.

It occurred to me, why on earth wouldn't the A-church adopt a separation policy for ALL A-saints with regard to true separation to wear clothing made of sackloth? Instead we are allowed to wear worldly clothing like Boss, Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren, Versace, DK, etc.

At least you wouldn't have to worry about the homosexuals and whoremongers designing and making every aspect of the garments you are allowed to wear under the current rules...ooops, strike that...conditions of separation vis-a-vis the A-church definition of standards/holiness.

Like I said before, I invite someone to prove that I am wrong, folks in the church will and can never be as physically separated from the world as they purport to be or as separated as they would like...even Billy Price has that problem much to his chagrin...

Carp .....

How separated in dress do you think the Jewish & Gentile Christians were from the unsaved crowd around them?

Well, I do know that one of the more popular Jewish fellas had to be identified by a kiss...because of the social uniformity of appearance and all...

So, in three posts you made your point - :tiphat

You forgot South Pole. :toofunny :toofunny

Carp,

This one really isn't worth the time since it is fraught with a weak foundation. But enjoy the responses. They will probably be what you expected and wanted.

No comment :ignore

I don't wear name brand & if I had em they are second hand or were given to me.:winkgrin

Carp is capable of coming up with some deep and intriguing thoughts, and has often rendered me amazed with some of his insights.

However, this hasn't beem ome of those times.

ROFL!

To me? Or to Carp?

Hmmmmm..so you wear only home made then?

Every peice of clothing is a "name brand" Tommy Hilfiger to Walmrt.

Hokay smartey pants!
The expensive ones then!:winkgrin

I heard a preacher preaching against designer clothes I am sitting there thinking are there any clothes that a designer was not involved? JUst a thought?
Speaking of sackcloth I had a preacher friend his wife had cancer he put on sackcloth and filled a bath tub full of ashes and sought for her healing. It was quite touching.

If you want this type of separation, you can go to Heritage Homestead near Waco, TX and join this "apostolic" version of the Mennonites. Only they don't mind mingling with the "unwashed" for their money.:winkgrin

I have given up deep thinking, it has cost me too much...
