Amazing on both extremes.

I don't buy this angels on the hair doctrine. Especially since one of the main proponents is "focially challenged!"

Not very clear, I know.. I have major issue conveying my thoughts to the keyboard.
I have to agree with you. I have heard it preached many times that if you let go of standards, you will eventually let go of the doctrine.

Ruth Reider, now Ruth Harvey, is a reknowned Holiness writer. She has written various books on the power/value of dress standards and God's Holiness, that can be found at her website - http://positivepowerofholiness.com

In her kids section, she has introduced a series of books entitled Kingdom Kids in which her site says boys and girls will learn about God's Holiness.

Having not read the books and, only making some basic assumptions about there content, I have provided information from her site and some questions I have formulated based on the synopsis and pictures of each book.



Each story, interestingly, features one or two girls, called Angel and/or Miriam as protagonists.
{Why aren't boys featured as main characters also? Is God's Holiness primarily a female problem?}


5 out of the 6 books seemingly deal with outer standards. Only one, the last one, deals with moral purity.
{Doesn't Holiness start inward? Does it appear the Mrs. Harvey is focusing primarily on the outward?}


Here are the books in the series.

___________


ANGELS WATCHING OVER ME - Kingdom KidsSeries Book #1; For ages 5-9 years old

{How does her uncut hair really give her the power of protection? Can this be substantiated by the Word?}

_______________________________

KINGDOM CLOTHING - Kingdom Kids Series Book #2; For ages 5-9 years old

{Why is receiving a makeup kit unusual? Does putting on any type of makeup, including blush, make you a painted barn and not a marble palace for God to dwell in?}
