Heard it under those 2 accusations.

One time I asked one of the ministers at the church why facial hair was prohibited. Mind you, I shaved immediately when told that my mustache was pride and pride is a sin. No questions asked. Some time passed and I realized there was nothing scriptural about the rule. So I asked...

The answer given was that I had been around long enough to know better.
I asked again, and I was given the same response.

Just think. Men with no sin in their life are not respectable enuff to step on the HOLY PLATFORM!

The Heavenly Father, The Lord Jesus Christ would not be permitted to address the most holy saints in an Apostolic Church!
Ouch.

Sorry can't help you there. But I was told flat out by Steve Winter that if you didn't have a beard you were effeminate.

I have noticed that it seems to swing from one extreme to the other. I quoted a scripture once about not rounding the corners of the beard and the other person in the debate said "Well then you shouldn't round the corners of YOUR beard". Just like that from one extreme to the other!

That's an extreme in the opposite direction. I think I might have said such tongue in cheek. But honestly, I don't believe being clean shaven is a problem in any way shape or form.

Unless... one has pride in their jaw line. Then it's a sin. They should be required to grow a beard.

Well, my man, I have had more than one A Po Stolic tell me how a beard was a determination of manhood. I guess the one has friends.
