Re: Do You People Have ANY Standards?
Whatever the bible teaches, we must abide by. Certain issues not mentioned in the bible may be required for our situation, using biblical principles. Men should dress masculine and modest and women should dress feminine and modest. Anything that fits that criteria is fine. I do not drink. No cussing.
So many things, but what about STANDARDS OF THE HEART? I've seen "holiness" preachers lie about others, stab in the back, gossip, hold grudges, refuse to apologize, etc. I am amazed at how outward "standards" become synonymous with "holiness," and how the heart goes undealt with.
Not say ALL who keep outward standards are dishonest, etc, since many are not. But standards have been used by MANY to use for a cloak of lying and cheating.
