Sixty days go by and she still does not feel convicted to wear only skirts. The Lord Jesus comes on the 60th day. Does she go to heaven with the Lord? What say ye?
She is in the hands of God! However I imagine in 60 days the HG will have already convicted her.

I do know a church in CA. that gives new people 2 week to "clean it up". that means get rid of the TV, shave the mustache, the pants have to go and the pastor wifes instructs the lady how to do the updo. If not, they are goners
Bro. Mark,

To me that would be like trying to feed a newborn solid food. A newborn
needs milk at first. That's a good way to "choke" the newborn to "death".

I wonder if today, children are not allowed to be children. You see little
girls dressed like teenagers. You can blow up a balloon but it contains
only hot air. And it can lose it it seconds. No substance. Things that grow
too fast may not last.

I have heard the miracle of the moment is the saving of a soul. But the
making of a saint is the work of a lifetime.

Just some thoughts!

That is right Mark! If they had more proof they would use it.

I like a woman in a dress. However, if you research the matter sincerely you will find that it is misapplication. The question must be asked: HOW DID THEY APPLY IT THEN?

The difference in dress consisted on different undergarments, the belts (or material used to tie at the waist), and the hem of the robe.

Pants that women wear are different from men -- frankly most men could not wear by how they are cut.

Now they will respond -- YOUR GOING TO HELL -- Its an abomination!

No real problem exists over the use of "The Name" in everthing else done in the Church. Why then should there exist great controversy over the use of the "The Name of the Godhead" in water baptism?

There is nothing to debate. Sin is sin. Hell is hot. End of story.
