I agree. About the only thing I disagree (or at least not totally agree) is his thoughts on the "robe standard" which is how he believes God covered Adam & Eve initially and then proceeds to to list the areas covered. But overall his thoughts on modesty and authority make a ton of sense.

"Not everyone who draws a line differently than I do is doing so because they are worldly. Of course, I think they are wrong because I think I am right. I am strange that way. But my response to them must be one of courtesy and respect, and I must be willing to discuss our differences in a redemptive and biblical manner. If I am not man enough to talk with them face to face about our differences, then I should not talk about them behind their back. It is amazing to me how much the sin of slander, which is the most refined form of murder, is committed in the name of holiness."

Bro. Pixler is also a wonderful musician and singer. I have ordered his CD's for
several years. When he has a new one, I usually order it and sometimes an extra
or so for a gift. Just personally like his style and anointing in his playing and singing.

It would be great if this attitude could take over in the Pentecostal movement. More respectful discussing, and less gossiping, condemning, and tale-spreading.
