Should we teach others to rebel against standards?

Secondly, there is no using "a principal from the word of God" apart from what a passage means. That destroys context.

A neighbor's landmark is about a neighbor's landmark, which is about property rights, lines, divisions, and ownership. Since it has nothing to do with 21st century Oneness Pentecostal standards, it should not have been used in the slightest, not even in a miniscule amount, because the two topics have nothing to do with each other.

Finally, if the video is really about something else, or that the main sermon text is not Deuteronomy 32:17, as you have made it seem, why not simply say so and go with that, from the outset. Otherwise, you have misled us, and even if inadvertently, obfuscated the original intent of the person preaching in the video, just to make a statement here on the forum.

If standards are a boundary a fence, then if you remove someone's fence what are you doing? That's their landmark is it not? Of course everyone knows what the passage meant, but he was only using a illustration of that principal. He talked about a lot more, but we have only dealt with a 15 second remark he made about facial hair. Was the whole sermon about that no. And it's Deuteronomy 27:17 btw. He just made some statements in there about standards and I thought it was fitting for this forum, so I titled it that way. That is the name of the sermon though, "Thy Neighbor's Landmark".
