Re: FL Woman starves to death during fast
Miss Bratperson,
Many years ago when I was in Bible College at JCM there was a redneck married student who broke his 40 day fast by eating pizza and drinking a chocolate milkshake (apparently the two foods he had been fantasizing about). He ended up in the hospital.
Now if he had half a brain and had listened to what was being taught he would have known the correct way to both fast and to break a fast. He had no one to blame but himself but what a terrible reflection on the Bible College and Pentecostals that something like this happened.

"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."
