Isaiah 3 and jewelry...

[The Lemon]

With all this bantering back and forth, and both parties using scripture to back their view, I appreciate the diverse opinions expressed.

Having said that, it is amazing how a thread like this can go on, and on, and on. It is obvious that neither side is going to concede anything so why waste time debating the issue? I realize we all have the ability to become arrogant from our own beliefs and experiences as we express them and try to persuade others of the "right" that we know. Still, I can't help but see how what would be called the more "conservative" side seems to really get upset and aggrivated moreso than the more "liberal" crowd.

Here is the bottom line as I see it. Who are we to judge another mans servant? i have no right to tell either my Apostolic brothers and sisters or even the AOG down the street that issues like jewelry are going to infringe, hinder, or cancel their walk and relationship with God. There simply is no proof whatsoever to create a literal doctrine over this issue. I know enough Christian folks who do not tow all the lines that we deem "standards" and they have wonderful moves of God in there church's and they are everybit as saved as my more conservative brethren. The issue is a heart issue, period.

And as I have said before...I don't have to go to their church, and I don't have to be subject to their teaching.
