Not a heaven/hell issue? I agree, and would not consider shaving/not shaving because of pastoral whims. Neither would I accept instruction on circumcision/or not, nor the eating of meats and keeping of Holy Days...

It's time we asked some serious questions. Have we offended without cause those who wear facial hair? If so, we need to repent corporately and our leadership needs to grow facial hair as a sign of humility and sincere repentance.
GREAT POST! Very true and the answer is YES! But if they repented and said they were wrong - then they could not scream at everybody in camps and Campmeetings that "BLESS GOD WE HAVE NOT CHANGED!"
