UPCI endorses Womens cutting of hair?
 
A UPCI church for the last 2 1/2 yrs has a man who owns a Womens hair cutting Salon to teach sunday morning sunday school every sunday morning.
I reported this to UPCI head quarters. The nice laddie who answered the phone says, Well, he has to make a living, and after all people do come in the salon on there own free will. ( this was UPC head quarters answer) who says this from World headquarters.. All the people who like weak worldy churches, are rejoicing..

So, if we want to sell drugs, tobaco, beer, whiskey, ect, as long as we are making aliving this is ok..
She then transfered question to Bro Bennards Sect. She said, talk to the pastor. ( after 2 1/2 yrs, i think he knows, his sunday school morning teacher runs a hair chopping salon.)
They were not interested i guess.
Which is more important ?? protecting Gods Holy word and doctrine, or the UPCI brother hood.
To be a new UPC pastor, you have to have back ground check, GOOD credit, ect. But once a pastor, you have unlimited protection.
Not only is Bro ****** a Pastor, But the UPCI district Overseeer of All of the state.
Can anyone explain How cutting womens hair and still teaching every sunday morning is BIBLE.
Does anyone have a BIBLE answer..

WHY run people down? Wouldn't prayer be best?

We have all kinds of inconsistencies around us, human nature. If we focus on them it will bring us down. If your not under that church then keep on trucking.

Not quite the UPCI endorsing the cutting of women's hair, but not necessarily surprising either. It is a known fact that there have been preachers whose churches have been cutting their hair in the UPCI for 50 years or more. They are either rare, or otherwise invisible for the most part. Not something that anyone who knows anything is not already well aware of. Especially if one lives in or around some of the more liberal districts. As has already been stated, this is more a matter of prayer rather than discussion. At least until such a time as the issue arrives before the GC.

This seems big to me. They need to have a conference, look at scripture and repent of the doctrine of uncut hair. Of course if one chooses not to trim thats great but forcing this false doctrine needs to go. Maybe this will be the beginning of the end of it.
