As far as LS goes I have heard him in person, online video or audio, and without any editing he "creates a very bad impression" with me. I am amazed that in the 21st century preachers get by in Pentecost with their wild extra biblical imaginations. In his case I am referring to doppleganger angels, magic hair, and other assertions put forth.
Old time Pentecost has always had fringe elements with wacky takes on things but the last decade or so we are seeing these people elevated and embraced by the mainstream of Oneness Pentecost. In particular I am thinking about LS and the former Mrs. Reider.

"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."
