Re: Do Those Of You Who Attended JCM????
Glenda,
If you knew how this thread would go yet you posted the question then I can't help but think you were looking for something to allow you to step up on your holier than thou stool.
Thank heavens your holier than thou stool is pretty short as you still are civil. LOL!!!!
I attended JCM in it's prime and did not have a clue it had instructors with a PCI take on doctrine. T.L. Craft was and is very much a 3 stepper and I left JCM just as much one as when I arrived. Nothing there in a class ever challenged that doctrine while I was attending.
I never agreed with the extra biblical and non biblical standards so that had nothing to do with JCM.
JCM was considered liberal because boys and girls could ride in the same car to church and eat together in the cafeteria unlike some other UPC Bible Colleges of the time.

"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."
