Re: PDF Copies of Old Oneness PUblications

Having access to these old Oneness PUblications has made me wish that the United Pentecostal Church would publish it's archived Oneness Publications online for research, etc.

"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."

Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"

Today you go to a nursing home and look at how many older ladies that are going bald.
Correlation? I don't know, but it is interesting.
What exactly is "interesting?' The fact that old ladies go bald just like old men? Did you ever visit a nursing home in the Victorian era? Guess what? Bald old ladies back then too. The fact that Brother Witherspoon was "seeing" some sort of corellation between women who would naturally lose their hair and Isaiah 3 is evidence in and of itself that the "Uncut Hair" doctrine was a novelty in 1945.

One of the "blessings" of a longer life is that increasing numbers of people get to "enjoy" the effects of aging for longer periods of time.

Brother Witherspoon was a great guy, but he really missed it on this one. Simply reading the Book of Isaiah for what it has to say of itself... you will get to Isaiah 22:12 - check out what the Bible says... (click the link!)

Did you notice what context does to help our understanding of the Word of God? "In that day..." When God's judgment is poured out people will despoil their persons in sack cloth, ashes and ... baldness. They will make themselves bald as a sign of mourning.

Now, since we have this Biblical precedent I have a question for the so-called Apostolics on the board: Why don't our pastors require our women to shave their heads when a member of their family dies?

"Touchy" about those who would add to and take away from the Word of God? You bet!

You must bust up laughing at those bald women in the cancer wing of the hospital. "Shouldn't have used the Clairol stuff, girls!" Boy, that cracks me up too. It is right and just that God Almighty has smitten those Jezebels with cancer and baldness - even though science can find no correlation between modern hair dyes and.

Still, I like to go to the hospital and point at people and laugh. "Heh! Where's your faith... you wouldn't be here if you didn't paint your face and cut your hair...!!!" That really brightens my day - and it helps me to understand that my salvation is greater than theirs and so God must like me better than He likes them.

You are a sick man. No where did I mention anything about cancer. That is an entirely different situation, and for you to stoop to such LOW blows to try to win an argument is disgusting.
