Because there is liberty in submitting to God's government even when you don't understand. Now I know people on here like to take everything to the farthest extent. But nothing about that teaching is immoral, so just submit. You can always grow a beard and go to another church at a later time. But don't judge things before the time. If you will get on board with the man of God, you will find a liberty. In that I promise.. Now here comes an attack, but "What I have written I have written."

I believe that a "standard" should have biblical merit, a lawful standard is based on Scripture, not a man's, nor a denomination's arbitrary opinion or private interpretation. Else the church in question will be conformed into the pastor's, or denomination's, image...and not Christ's, in accordance to the Scriptures.
Also, such a position opens the door to innumerable arbitrary standards.
