My point is that for the past 17 years, I've been taught that cut hair on a woman is rebellion and will send her to hell. So far, we've never had a pastor who has allowed a minister to preach if his wife did not abide by the "standards".

Then why not just say UC pastor?

Why bother putting in the UPC part?

Kind of like putting the "very" in front of it all.....lol that still tickles me

(excerpt from "A Few Good Men")
" I object your honor"
"Overruled"
"Your honor , I strenuously object"

LOL

Scotty: we would'nt want folks to misunderstand and think we were discussing the actions of a pastor that was independant or AMF.

You know the AMF does not have any such among them anyway.

Why brother, NOBODY has such like that among them but UPC. Don't believe me, just read some of the other threads.

Well brother I use to attend an AMF church and I can assure that the "were better than the rest of ya all" spirit was very prevalant among them.

Of course I know, it's only sinful if UPC does it. (learned that hard truth hanging around here)


No, we all know it is wrong no matter WHAT church does it. But I DO believe it is much more rampant in Apostolic (UPC being one of them) churches then anywhere else. Catholics are probably a close second.

Works based performance. JWs also believe they are better than everyone else. They compare themselves to others, not just doctrine, but even their name "Jehovah's Witnesses"...

This alone should be enough to make us rethink the whole outward Holiness/works performance thing...it produces a prideful arrogant fruit. Im not saying we should not have works either or outward holiness, but the emphasis is taken off faith in Him and HIS work and placed on our own often.

(Gal 6:14) But may it never be for me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.

Eph 2:8 For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God,
Eph 2:9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.
Eph 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them.
