Here's what I've read in this thread, and while these posts don't outright say "men with facial hair are going to hell" the end result of what is being posted is just that.

Back at post 189 I asked for an explanation on whether I was reading that part correctly. It appeared you're saying that people who don't agree with your dress codes and standards didn't really repent or receive the HG. I thought I must be reading it wrong and requested more explanation, but it seems that post got lost among others and was never responded to.

Claiming a man with facial hair is in rebellion is a serious accusation. That is indeed heaven/hell. The Bible is clear in regards to rebellion. This is what I mean when I type that people won't come right out and say, "men with facial hair are going to hell," but instead will just say "you're in rebellion." It's the same result and ending.

Another not outright saying it, but the end result is the same.

The Bible says to be carnally minded is death, and the carnal mind is enmity with God. Again, the end of such a one is damnation and hell.

Please tell me where I'm missing it, because it does appear that while there hasn't been outright condemnation to hell, the end result of what has been posted about those generic men wearing facial hair is the same.
