Keeping the Standards
 
Just thought there were so many threads praising and rejoicing in having NO standards. I just thought I would start one saying I am very happy living by the Biblical standards preached by the Apostolic church all these years. NOT IN BONDAGE don't feel sorry for me.

Glad you continue to post here with us, even though we probably don't agree on dress standards.

I once heard an old black preacher preach regarding the standards...His statement went something like this...

"If I'm in bondage...then I LOVE my chains"!

Can't you just hear him sing/preach that one!

And there are still many like you around the country. :)

Most of them just don't post on forums.

Because their standards are too high to hang out with me.

Can't recall anyone, not even me, saying they have NO standards.

Ah. Outward standards. I stand (sorta) corrected, as there were some that voted that they have dropped them.
