But that's just me. I don't want to offend anyone and turn them off before the Lord can get ahold of them.
And I'd probably be too sensitive to that, and not want to preach hard when preaching hard was needed... that's why God didn't call me to preach.

That said, I have so many faults of my own to deal with, I can't pick apart a preacher who says something I wouldn't have said myself.
Silly girl! God didn't call you to preach because you're a WOMAN! No girls allowed!

So according to some of the slippery slope logic I've seen posted here over the years, you might say that this mans "holiness preaching" lead him to homosexuality.

The "Cons" have stated that letting up on holiness preaching leads one down this slippery slope to immorality.

Guess it works both ways, eh?

You are missing the really important question. Did he and that young man have the TV on in that hotel room?

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

So one could also say "From Dan (Alicia) to Steve Epley" and it would mean the same thing?

In AFF land I believe it could!

I think there are plenty to the left and right of said two posters, who do not dwell in this land of plenty.


PS. By the way it's Beersheba not Baresheba.
