I am not attacking anyone. I am not judging anyone, but I must stand on the Word of God.

This is an extremely irresponsible statement. The people of God have always looked different? Are Moslems people of God? Are Mormons people of God? Are Mennonites people of God?
What do you mean look different from the world? Like long hair or no makeup? LIke jean skirts and poofs? Because all of the above seem to have the same dress code too as UPCites.
You have absolutely no scripture to back up this statement. And look different how? It's amazing to me that you guys make such ridiculous statements and Jesus never once addressed how a person dressed or the clothes they wore, the length of the hair or facial hair. As a matter of fact, the only ones he chastised were the religious elite pharisees who were dressed "holy" too.
I know preachers who preached against long dresses when they were in style in the 70's because we weren't supposed to follow the world.
Sir, styles change. Today homosexual men have short hair. We are not to be clothed with the styles of the world, we are to be clothed with Christ. Our personal attire should be modest. Many applications women in the modern world find themselves in are more modest with pants. This does not mean they are not people of God.
If you're clothes could save you, you wouldn't need the cross!
