I wish some would post and explain. I bare them no ill will. In fact, I have been one all my life. In fact my wife and daughters wear nothing but non-bifurcated garments. However, recent study has caused me to understand the tenuous foundations that undergird this issue and some other "core" holiness doctrines of the UPCI.
Intense, objective study reveals that some of these "standard" issues are not core doctrines of the Bible at all. Rather, they are surprisingly almost nonexistant or even absent in scripture altogether. At best, some of these positions are so unclear as to be open to multiple legitimate interpretations by honest Christian people.
This is not to be allowed by certain hierarchy. This is what has troubled me, and I am sure many others here.
