Re: Why Is It.....?
About 30 years ago I worked with a short little Puerto Rican guy who was absolutely in love with himself. He may have lacked in many things but self confidence was not one of them.
All of his shirts were monogrammed with his name on them and the only pictures on his desk were of himself. Alone. LOL!!!

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."

Re: Why Is It.....?
 Doesn't the Word say somewhere that we shouldn't make graven images? It may even say that we shouldn't make them of ANYTHING above, in or under the earth? Isn't a picture or painting for that matter the modern equivalent?
