Re: Wisdom In Witnessing (or the lack thereof)

The only good thing about my thread being hijacked into a wine thread is that I no longer have some people trying to defend the crass and idiotic guy we encountered "witnessing".

"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."

Well, I didn't defend him exactly. But I did ask some questions (not you specifically), and there were no answers, that I can see. So, bump:

Did the fellow use God's guidance and wisdom in telling the sinner he was a sinner and that God loves him?

No "wining" from you about that, right?
