In "real life" the only people I've met who think "pentecostal standards are bondage" are either ex-Christians who hate everything Christian with a passion, baptists and Lutherans and Methodists who like their short hair, makeup, jewelry, etc, or uber-liberal types who think Jesus smiles on their dope-smoking fornicating party all week church on Easter Sunday way of living.
Obviously, ymmv.

Amen, there is a root of bitterness that gets in a persons spirit to keep the Spirit of God from working in their life and in the lives those who listen to them.
Hebrews 12:14..Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
15..Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
16..Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
17..For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.
