Re: Changing Standards

I assume ILG means 'typical' Pentecostal standards. Pants, cut hair, makeup - for women. Shorts, etc.

Re: Changing Standards

How about:

being raised with different outward holiness standards, drop those to pick up other outward standards, drop most of those and now back to living some of the standards from the 2nd set of standards acquired?


How should I vote?

There needs to be. I don't see an appropriate choice for me. Someone who grew up with inward/outward holiness standards. As a young teen, I backslid, and had neither the inward or outward. As an older teen, I rededicated my life to Jesus, and in my return embraced the holiness standards once again. I still do.

So, I guess I did, I didn't, I do.
