The reason the ultracon sect is shrinking is that folks have started reading the bible for themselves and realize that their 'standards' arguments have little scriptural basis. Thing is, for the most part, it's 'standards' which the men in their little sect have invented and promoted and placed upon the people who dare not dispute the man they look to as a Godlike figurehead. Any questioning of the teaching will bring swift judgment against them.

People just aren't buying what they're selling any more and rightfully so.

Said the person who doesn't even believe Jesus is God !


Recently, I was teaching on principles of gender distinction & separation (not isolation) from the world. In the process thereof, I simply had the church turn to Deut. 22.5 & we all read it as I was solidifying my point about how God wants men to act like men & ladies to act like ladies.

Read this carefully: I did not say one word about pants on women.


A woman who had been visiting immediately came up to my wife afterward & unexpectedly said, "I am sorry I have been wearing pants to church, I have never seen that Scripture before!"

See what happens when honest-hearted folks without an agenda allow the clear implications of the biblical text to define their lifestyle (instead of the contrary)?

She also started "letting her hair grow" out.....& I said nothing in her presence about women not cutting their hair.

Sincerity....It's a beautiful thing....So much for the "shrinking" of our "sect!"
