AFF makes me feel like Ultra-Con...
 
and I'm fairly moderate... *with exception to Edward's lovely description of Mods*.....:D

So does AFF need more RevRandy???

My wife doesn't wear pants...or colored make-up...
She has long hair that is magically beautiful...
We don't have a Television...
We go to church on a Regular Basis...
We hold to Apostolic Standards as Biblical Standards...
We hold hands, kiss and make out on a regular basis...
We Believe in Seperation from the World that includes the way we dress...
My boys don't wear shorts...
We are submitted to OUr Pastors' leadership in our Lives...

In that picture, you look like an Ultra-con. I think it's the smile, the teeth, and the sunglasses. :lol

Oh, and the woman being behind the man in the picture. (chauvinism-type thing).

Don't worry about that woman...she gives me a swift kick now and again when I need it... :)

I have to ask, is any makeup NOT colored? isn't color the point of makeup?

Back when I was apostolic, natural was considered a color. I got in trouble a number of times for wearing a natural foundation and/or a natural powder with NOTHING else.

Re: AFF makes me feel like Ultra-Con...
 
You know what's funny? I hardly ever wear any make-up at all now. I wore alot more when I was apostolic than I do these days. I think getting older has alot to do with that. Cuz anymore, I've changed my attitude. If you like what you see, that's good. If you don't, then go ahead and turn your head. I'm too old to care about too much. Doesn't mean I look like a slob. I don't. I was blessed with very good skin. But I'm sure not one of those who wouldn't leave my house without make-up.

Wow...were you attending a nudist pentecostal church??? I would think you'd get in trouble....

missourimary 01-12-2010 03:20 PM

Natural is a color where I'm from, yes...
For that matter, so is shiny and so is glittery. No lip gloss, only chapstick. Feel better?

Ok...what KIND of makeup DOES she wear?? :statbike:
Long hair? Great!

No boobtube? How about a monitor not hooked up to cable or a computer that is on the internet?

Hey! I do that too! I go to church on a regular basis

Standards? Not a biblical word. I hold to Biblical holiness

Eh....Im single and if I was doing that I probably would not admit it here.

I believe in separation from the world but how we look is only a small facet of that.

I don't have any boys but I wear shorts on a hot day around the house.

I am in cooperation with my Pastor. He is not a dictator.

I don't wear pants, only skirts, and all are at least the standard 6" below the knee, no slits, BTW... ;)

If something is sold in the jewelry dept, it's jewelry, whether it is functional or not. (that's what some people say) If something is sold in the makeup aisle, it's makeup, whether it's "natural" or not. No makeup is natural, in some people's opinions. (But I do wear concealer, and by doing so I do break the rules.)

Most women wear natural make-up - - you try to match your skin tone so it looks natural.

So it's only a sin if it's darker or lighter than your skin tone?

Natural dyed hair - - no such thing. Your hair is either natural or dyed. You mean match your hair color. Dye is dye - - if you dye your hair to cover the gray, then it's not natural anymore.

How would they know where you bought it? Or how would they know you had it? Believe me, in my previous circle they'd find out if you had it. And they didn't care where you bought it. One man told me he couldn't care less if a watch was a watch face tied to his arm with binder twine, they still sold watches in the jewelry dept at Walmart and so he wouldn't wear one.

I don't go to those extremes now. Does that make me lib or mod?

To whom do you compare yourself to in order to consider yourself moderate?

Do you believe people will go to hell if they don't speak in tongues?

Do you believe water baptism in the name of Jesus only is essential to remission of sins and essential to the new birth?

If you answered yes to either one of the questions above you are in a group that makes up about .083% of the worlds population. Seems pretty radical to me. :treadmill:

missourimary 01-12-2010 03:33 PM

Re: AFF makes me feel like Ultra-Con...
 
Let me rephrase that... I still dress the part, but I won't judge others based on whether or not they are wearing a watch or even a wedding band. Or any of a myriad of other standards, either. Even, due to my current situation, whether or not they attend church regularly.

How about smart? Yourself? An individual who can do a little thinking for themselves?

I could go with that... unfortunately, so could several pastors, by using a different definition of the term... :toofunny

Concerning Salvation...

I believe that God is the Judge not me...

secondly I have to preach what I know...

Repentance, Baptism in Jesus Name, and the Infilling of the Holy Ghost to complete Calvary's Work in one's life...

gotta go...

And that is why you are a moderate, maybe even a liberal.

Also depends on what your criteria for your final analysis are.

Then what's the point? Make up is make up.

And you're contributing to the machine that denigrates the self esteem of young women all over the world. You probably club baby seals and harpoon dolphins too.

missourimary 01-12-2010 04:23 PM

Re: AFF makes me feel like Ultra-Con...
 
If there is a tint, it has color. If it's clear and shiny, tinted to hide a big zit, or whatever, it alters your natural appearance and is, therefore, makeup. Makeup hides the natural beauty God made (even that big zit) and therefore is sin.

So I've heard... ;)

And Delta before you think I'm too liberal...

I would baptize every trinitarian I could in the Name of Jesus before the Rature comes...

There is the truth that False Doctrine has saved nobody...

I loath TBN for it's predatory ways.....

Just so you know... :)

I will say that Randy had a little more moderate feel to his postings before he moved back to OK... just an observation. :)

I did get to meet Randy and his lovely family in SF a year or so ago while I was there alone on business.... we had a really nice visit (and didn't even talk about church stuff much. lol)
