Really, it is that simple. People want magic and power and crazy stuff happening and things that build up the pride of man. But when God performs a miracle it is in a way that no man can boast.
Amen, no man can glory in the flesh.

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter
The point is that Jesus didn't die on the cross just to regulate our dress codes, but so many Apostolics seem to think that he did. We witness to people so that we can get them into the church, filled with the Holy Ghost and then get those sinful pants off the women, makeup off their faces, hair cut on men, etc. It's the primary FOCUS, way too often.
That bothers me. Too often, leading people to Jesus, drawing them into a close relationship with Him is NOT our focus. And it should be.
I respect standards when people genuinely believe them, and are doing them for the glory of God. I don't respect them when they ARE god.
Elder Moody can teach on hair better than most. He backs his teaching of the Word oe God. There is great power and authority from God to those who obey it. Larry Booker spoke on the powerful electric charge conductivity of horsehair. It is wise to study 'hair' for God regards it Highly, and responds accordingly, one way or the other. If you need help getting your congregation, or home, in order- hair is the place to start. Anyone wanting DC Moody's number may PM or email me. He is willing to help you. I want my hair right to please God. Amen.
I'm really starting to wonder if you're for real.

Could you forward me some of his studies ... I'd love to hear it ...
Surely hair has to be the be all and end all to a Spirit filled walk. (TIC)
Seriously, please PM any studies you do have by Moody.
Also I'd love to hear the power conductivity quote by Booker ... where can I get a copy of the audio.
You are funny.
