Wow, thanks for the link. That is quite the article. I have to say I find it very, very interesting. For example... uncut hair is not mentioned, when it could have been... pants on women is not mentioned, when it could have been... beards on men are mentioned. Then he sums up the article with this, and I quote....
We must be willing to examine and evaluate modern Pentecostals traditions and practices as
follows: (1) If they are contrary to the Bible, we must discard or modify them as needed. (2) If
they are compatible with the Bible but not required by it, we must grant Christian liberty
according to the teachings of
Romans 14. (3) If they are appropriate expressions and applications
of biblical teaching—whether specific statements of Scripture or valid implementations of
scriptural principles—we must uphold them regardless of the shifting opinions of modern
culture, philosophy, and theology. (4) Finally, if we are lacking in our adherence to biblical
teaching, we must be willing to conform our thought and conduct to the Word of God.
That is quite the final statement. I agree 100%!!! Go Bernard!!
