Exclamation My Last Thread:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CC1, I implore you to delete my last thread titled: Pride and Vanity is taking over the Church. I posted some things on that thread that is inappropriate. My desire is to start off the New year with a better attitude and become closer to God. With the things I have posted on an open forum is un-Christlike, and uncalled for. I have gone through a low point in my life, and am trying to climb out of the funk. Please do so by removing my thread. Many thanks, and have a blessed New Year. Miss Scarlett

Miss sCarlet,
This thread was already way down on page 3 or 4 and out of sight and out of mind until you just posted on it putting it back on page 1 for everybody to see. That was not the smartest thing to do being as you want it gone.
I see that you posted your private communication to me so I will respond publicly as well by saying that I responded to your request by explaining that we do not delete threads on AFF except in extraordinary circumstances. (regret does not constitute extraordinary circumstances).

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."
