They must believe this to their CORE to sit back and watch this happen. So, although I disagree with their choice, I respect their right to have it. Funny how we live in a society that would have allowed them to outright KILL their children in the womb but when they use prayer and trust God they are criminals. Sad.

An adult is free to let themselves die without medical care. It is a different case altogether when children who are too young to make that decision for themselves are involved.
We are not talking about them believing God for healing of a toothache and it not happening but the kid gets better. We are talking about a small child whose health was clearly deteriorating day by day to the point of death. The second child they have let die I might add.
I hope they get jail time and lose custody of the remaining children.

"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."
