Re: Does It Have To Be A Sin?
I think it's because too many Pentecostals have ruled by the "law". (Pentecostal law) There's been too little emphasis on having a personal walk with God, and too much focus on following the rules.
As I was telling my husband last night... people are happy if you look the part. If you don't let down on the standards. You start letting up on the standards, and they FREAK OUT. Panic. But just keep those standards going and they're pleased as punch. You're doing real good.
But what about what's going on inside you? What if you don't have a close relationship with God? You don't find people getting all bent out of shape and panicking about that.
My desire for my children is that they'll walk closely with God all the days of their life. I don't really care whether or not they keep man-made standards all the days of their lives. As long as they're walking with God, he'll keep them on the straight path.
