Re: Letter from Bro. Chester Wright to Bro. Haney

I think it's sad when the 'scriptural lines' we are most concerned about have to do with cut hair.

I thank God that He is more concerned with the matters of my heart than what my hair looks like.

I meant in the context of the things under attack currently.

Obviously the heart issues are paramount, but no one is trying to say those don't matter.

"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."

Re: Letter from Bro. Chester Wright to Bro. Haney

Judgment day will bring a lot of surprizes especially to those that always are sitting on the judgment seat pointing their finger at others...for we will be judged according to how we judge. I want to be merciful for I know I need and will need lots of His mercy to hear Him say, "well done."

Re: Letter from Bro. Chester Wright to Bro. Haney

I suppose so.

Of course, it's not as bad as using that verse to support not marrying outside your race.

Re: Letter from Bro. Chester Wright to Bro. Haney

Wouldn't a better verse be can 2 walk in agreement? I can see both Renda and Nina's point but the verse in question is being stretched a bit imo.
