The only way we could say that electric razors are acceptable is if you can show me chapter and verse in the King James Bible (not some modern paraphrase or "per"version) that Jesus used an electric razor.

There is the great danger and sin of what these teachers have done. Think of how many tens of thousands of sincere minded lovers of Jesus came to Apostolic Churches seeking more truth and were hit with a tradition that said men were lost or in sin simply for wearing a beard!

THAT is what makes this a burning issue. Souls turned away from a deeper knowledge of Christ over something that is honored in scripture but among our people scorned. Offending many seekers of truth and showing they dont love truth so much after all. Helping the Devil to discredit the teaching of Oneness doctrine by teaching error themselves.

It is for the lost and searching souls that I am offended. I was willing and did shave but over time could not stomach the extra Biblical stuff they threw out there.

Indeed....

Mar 7:7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.
Mar 7:8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, [as] the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
Mar 7:9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.

I find it hard to believe that a preacher told a man they could not be saved it they were wearing a beard. I am not saying any of you that heard it are lying. It's just down right idiotic. If so the blood is on their hands.

But when we know better, we do better.
