Must run... have a blessed day.
It's okay, Sis. I think we both have enough notches in our swords to call it a day. Nice sparring with you. I hope your iron has been sharpened as much as mine has been.

Peace and God bless.

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

Bro. EB: ... I won't quote your entire post, but don't you think that teaching people to allow the spirit of the Lord to lead and guide them and teach them to do or not to do things, and being sensitive to the spirit of the Lord would be the best way to root out the issues of pride, and sin in hearts?

Do you think that rules need to be taught, or is there a better way to do it, which might be reinforcing the principle at hand, instead of the application? What has been your experience?

I think there is a big difference in a woman wearing women's clothing that includes pants and a man wearing the same thing.

Its sad that OPs are so hung up on such trivial issues while the world suffers and goes to hell.

It is also sad that little children have the power to turn on computers and annoy adults having a conversation. Go to another thread if this one isn't up to your level of piety. Please do us all a favor and do what you are wanting others to do, and please lead by example. Go out there are save the world from suffering and stop them from going to hell. One minute you're One God, and the next you are Trinitarian (or whatever) then next minute you don't give tithes and the other minute you are walking around with an orange UNICEF box. So, please do me a favor and go slay some windmills for Christ.

This is a place where ideas, trivial or not, controversial or otherwise, can be presented, talked about, challenged, dismissed, argued over, and debated.

But it does not follow (i.e. it's a non-sequitur) that just because some OP folks want to use this board for its intended purpose, that OP folks don't care and/or aren't doing anything about the suffering in the world or people going to hell.

I still think you said it way better.
