Your comment serves no purpose except to try to make fun.

If you Change your mind on the so called legalists let us know because I am sure there is some Jesus name Holy Ghost filled churches where you are that will treat you right.

I was not trying to be unkind if perceived that way I apologized just stating what I knew about the area.

Ma'am, I apologize for any offense. I do want to point out that what I said wasnt debating and it was more in response to the 5 previous pages that WAS a doctrinal debate.
I was just relating a personal subjective experience.
You don't have to ever worry about me ruining your threads again.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

I found your post insightful and non-confrontational. I'd like to say more...but I don't want to ruin "her thread".

He told me that there is restrictive legalism and permissive legalism and both types are two sides of the same coin.
It is like two lawyers in a courtroom arguing two sides of the same case and the prosecutor starts haranguing the defense and accusing them of being a lawyer.
DUH! Both of them are lawyers just on the opposite sides!
Legalism is a mindset...Not a position of strict rules and standards.
Legalists can either be conservative or liberal BUT being on one side or the other doesn't automatically make you a legalist.
You have good and sincere people on both sides of issues that want to live in peace and be right with God.

If you think what you said isn't unkind you are incorrect. It was unnecessary.

This thread was not started as a theological discussion. There are other places for that. And yes, it is "my thread", unless you or someone else started it. Oh, nope, you didn't. So, yep...my thread!  :happy dance
