So we don't pick uncut hair on women but not them keepoing silent in the church?

Re: Apostolic or Not?
IMO Phillips could come right back into the UPC and not have to change much at all...

Apostolics always throw each other down when they disagree - didn't you know that?

Brother,
It concerns me when ministers talk bad about others ministers.
It is as though they are exempt.
Just this week brothers have voiced their concern over this issue, yet they are the very ones discrediting ministers.

Sis,
I am learning that. God would not be pleased.

Re: Apostolic or Not?
Where did this label "Apostolic" come from?

SURE it is, Brother!
That's why many people use Peter's teaching about modest apparel to ONLY preach against ear rings and anything other than a wedding ring, but totally ignore the modest apparel and braided hair part! Oh, yeah, and it's ok for a woman to pin a broach to her dress, but not her ears.
That's why many folks use Deuteronomy 22 to preach against a woman wearing pants, but have no issue when she puts her husband's suit coat on in church when it's a bit chilly!

Re: Apostolic or Not?
There does seem to be a double standard at times - - I have noticed that even here.
