I do so because I think boundaries are needed.
We go over the cliff, however, when we mandate our own personal boundaries on everybody in the natural born world.

Here is my test to see if you really live the "old time way";
1. Do you own any shirts in a color other than white?
2. Do you own any short sleeve shirts?
3. Do you not shave when you are at deer camp or on a multiple day fishing trip?
If you have answered yes to any of these questions you are NOT living the "old time way"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Titus2woman on AFF
"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. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"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."
