And I say, If you have to accept that make-up makes you a Jezebel, don't be accepted! If you have to believe that uncut hair makes you accepted, don't be accepted! If you have to believe that wearing pants means you are dressing like a man, don't be accepted!

Funny, how if you turn it around, you get a whole different viewpoint.
i know im late to the party, but i wouldnt be shocked at all, if Wayne agrees with you too....


i personally agree with both of you.

Re: If you have to wear make-up to be accepted....

If the writings of Enoch could be verified to have been written in the time frame of Moses, then perhaps more serious attention could be given to them, but since the writings are for the most part known to have been written many years after the gospels... most scholars believe that the writings of Enoch borrowed from the apostles writings to somehow make the writings seem more authentic.

I wish I said that.

Re: If you have to wear make-up to be accepted....

I want to declare to one and all that I have never worn makeup or been called Jezebel.














































My wife would not approve.

Re: If you have to wear make-up to be accepted....

A woman with the proper amount of makeup properly applied looks very nice. It compliments Gods creation just like a nice dress or skirt and blouse do, shoes, scarves, etc. Same goes with jewelry. When done with modestly and moderation just part of a woman's look AND distinguishes even more between the sexes (something old time Pentecostals are supposed to be very concerned about).

I challenge anybody to show me one single New Testament scripture where Jesus and his disciples were noted for dressing differently than anybody else of their day. A dress code is certainly not what made them different.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

What can a man do for hair loss? Get in touch with Donald Trump? Cosmetics can't help.... Fix the woman, accept the man.

I have no problem with a good toupee if a man wants one. The emphasis is on the word "good". I am amazed at how many older men think a jet black toupee is a good idea. It just looks like a hat on their head.

I agree that Donald Trump is NOT a good role model for what a man should do with a balding head.

Lets face it throughout time humans have looked to the female for beauty and the man for ruggedness. Modern San Francisco and a few other places being the obvious exceptions of course!
