It has become so easy in our quest for whose right and whose wrong, even as groups, to forget that holiness in an inward attribute that is seen outwardly. The dress and the facade are in place, but the heart is so far gone. We need to remember, holiness sets us apart, not above.

I would like to add that as one whom has read many forums discussons, like many here have, , I for one am TIRED of the attitude that considers anyone that dresses the part {so to speak} to NOT be "holy" inside, well that is plain just NOT truth!

I believe that those who do not wish to "dress the part" are the ones mad at those who do want to, because they 'think' it makes them look worse, and so as they "think" so they are., people would do well in the interest of united brethren to just accept one another as they are or wish to be without planting seeds of suspicion, distrust and so forth.

It begins and ends with EACH individual saint., pointing fingers is not the way to foster good relations with all bro's and sis's., no one is all the way perfect or 'there' we should hold each other UP and not bring anyone down., even those some might consider to be acting as if ABOVE, thoughts such as that come from satan., the author of all lies and divisions.
Just my :
