Oops!
Somewhere I have posted that
Lev 19:27, "Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar [or ruin] the corners of thy beard." applied only to the Levitical priesthood.
Wrong!
This passage applied to the general male population. I did what I warn others about - failing to read a passage within its entire context.
So, I guess now all men must grow full, uncut (untrimmed) beards in order to be on the platform. Right? Hmmmm Brings up another 'apostolic doctrine' problem.
Now, if
that verse does not apply to the church leadership, and the members of the church in general, what about the very next verse:
28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead [we generally include body piercing for ear and noise rings for any purpose],
nor print any marks [tattoo] upon you: I am the LORD.
So, what then is our justification for accepting one instruction and rejecting another one?
