It was these kinds of theatrics that impressed people and made him in demand, not the substance of his message. "Oh if we just get a guy in here like Maddix, we will have revival!" is what I often heard.

It was "those kind of theatrics" that I saw watching him on a POA webcast of a Sunday night service a few years ago that made me think he was a nutcase.
It astounds me that this kind of nonsense appeals to some people. I think this guy has probably found his niche hawking positive thinking and book publishing.

"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."

Could it be, THE ONLY FAKE ONE IS YOU?
During that time when Matt Maddix spent passionately trying to reach the world with Acts 2:38 and follow up bible studies, feeding the homeless, widows ministry, Saturday outreach mowing neighborhood lawns etc, as a venue for the gospel, in the best way he knew how, all you seem to do is try to put everyone, including him, in hell, for not obeying your errorless, flawless, perfected, ungood news of your 4 and no more, un-gospel. And he’s the fake?

Emphasis on the word “spent”
Jim, go put on your pajamas because you must be dreaming.
