If that is really the view you have of those of who are called liberal by old time Pentecostals that is really sad.
I don't know of any liberals who say outward appearnce doesn't matter, they can live anyway they want, and talk about people anyway they like. Good grief! I was surprised to see you write what you did.

Re: Prominent Memphis Area Pastor Resigns
If only this pastor had been stricter and had a "stronger standard" I am sure this would not have happened. They probably wear short sleeves above the elbow in this church and have video screens in the sanctuary.

Re: Prominent Memphis Area Pastor Resigns
I am a current member at TPC Memphis and have been for the past 15 years. There's been a problem with adultery in this church for some time. As a matter of fact, Bro. Black addressed that problem some 6-8 years ago. He told us, we needed to bind together in prayer & fasting and come against the adulterous spirit that satan had released upon our congregation. I love Bro. Black & his family and I plead the blood of Jesus over each and every one of them. Our church is in need of your prayers. Please keep us in mind.......

Wrong. The key is repenting.
