The fact that he would be used in any form or format at this point in time is utterly ridiculous and an insult to the people of TPC, and the Lord for that matter.

Looks like I was right about him having the special "Express" restoration. I remember when Jim Bakker fell Jimmy Swaggart made a big deal about telling reporters that their org., the AOG, and a process of restoration that Bakker should subject himself to.
Then of course a short time later when it was Swaggart himself being caught in adultery he left the AOG rather than submit to their restoration process.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
