- britches are to be worn by men only britches are no where mentinde in the word. breeches are spoken of and are actully linen undergarments worn by a preist under his robe so he nakedness not be seen when he ascended the altar steps. Deut 22:5 properly interpreted staes that a women shoud not wear that which pertaineth to a warrior/soldier (from the heb. gebor)
- a lady's hair should be long/uncut I'll agree it's good for woman to have longer hair than what men wear in a given culture...but uncut hair is not in 1 Cor 11
- a guy's hair should be cut short yeah, if ya bald
- in paying tithes ..best you can up with is that we all should give as we to our local assembly what we can, not of compulsion but from our heart. Titheing is NOT a NT mandate.
- you should attend church regularly Agreed, but nowhere does it tell us once or five times a week. Or what time of day.
- cussing is wrong
- moving pictures are evil What??? Not in and of themselves
- sports are immoral Paul made so many refersnces to sports/Olympics, like I run the race with patience. not once did he take the opportunity to condemn the sports he compared our walk with God with.
So, do you have ANY standards at all? |
So standards it is that you are concerned with Ed?
My standard is this: Hear o Israel ...love the Lord yourGod with all your heart/mind /soul.
and love your neighbor as you love yourself.
