I didn't get it either but I know what you mean as far as the concept goes. I have a very dry sense of humor that sometimes does not translate well to the written page. Back in the old days when I posted a lot of NFCF and AFF it got me in trouble when I would post something with a chuckle that I thought was funny and people would think I was furious and being hateful which wasn't the case at all. Didn't happen often but did happen.

Titus2woman on AFF
"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."
