Don't know if this is making your question a standards issue or not, but here goes. It was my experience when I came into this way, that many things (standards) were preached as absolutes and necessary for salvation. As I search the scriptures and sought God, I found that I had to make some decisions on what Holiness was, and how a child of God should live. As I developed a walk with God, and learned about the Grace of God, I found that outward holiness was only a part of holiness. The most important aspect of holiness is inward holiness, a part of which are portrayed in the Fruit of the Spirit. While outward standards have a place in our walk with God, I do not believe that they are heaven or hell issues. My walk with God is just that - a walk where I depend on HIS leading.
