Re: Friends church droppped "standards"
You are all just a bunch of backsliders who have forgotten that "power" is a bunch of people whipped into a frenzy screaming and hollaring and jumping all over the place!
You know good and well that God can't and doesn't operate in any other enviroment than that.
You can judge the annointing of your preacher by how loud he is and how he uses a microphone to achieve that "holy breath" thing while he is preaching.
If your preacher is just speaking in a normal tone truth from the Bible then he is not an Old Testament prophet...er....I mean a real New Testament preacher!

Titus2woman on AFF
"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."
