The apostle Paul did a little bit of hell-sending in his epistles:

Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

As did the apostle John:

Re 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Telling folks that continuing in sin will send them to hell is not judgemental but truly is warning them and giving them a chance to repent. The problem lies when men make things sin that are not sin and condemn others for doing them.

Funny I don't see anything about the clothes people were or were not wearing in those verses, or any of the so called standards.

Neither do I.

But that really wasn't what I was addressing.

But that was what was being addressed in the post you quoted.

It's fine with me if someone wants to stay Old Time Pentecostal!

I wouldn't want anyone to change out of peer pressure or being forced on them. I like to see folks change from a divine revelation epiphany and enlightenment. That way, you know it's the real thing!

Right!

Except when the epiphany or divine revelation runs aground of the Gimme that old tyme Religion, it is considered a delusion...

I was addressing Prov 31 response to OP in regard to it being wrong for a preacher to give warnings or saying someone is lost IN GENERAL and not specifically in regard to "holiness standards".
