Re: Is it a sin for women to shave, pluck or other
Ecc 12:8 Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher; all [is] vanity.
This is why this scripture is so valuable to us all;
Phl 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

I was one of those!

So valuable because it can be twisted to support any false doctrine?

When I say, 'I toed the line.' Believe me...I TOED THE LINE. Hook, line and sinker.
I would never DARE to anything against what the preacher advised!
