No YOU do. YOU accused a church and a pastor and an usher and here you accused and judged a forum member who is also an admin

This post again continues your contradiction for you did not bring up the state of affairs in the UPC but you brought up a church and it's pastor and accused them

Judging over a woman leading in worship???

Exodus 15:20-21
20And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.
21And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

Women are not forbidden to lead in worship. They are expected not to try to teach men or usurp authority over men. But this is during teaching. Also please note, if a woman is permitted to teach the group by an elder... she has the necessary male authority covering her. If a woman is commissioned by her pastor to teach or prophesy, disregarding her is an afront to the elder's authority.

I wonder how much longer they'll be in the upc before they withdraw/kicked out?

So you'd chose to believe this story without any facts to verify it? That is puzzling for a Christian to do

Ben, Im just calling a spade a spade, you should never have posted your false accusations to begin with. You contradicted yourself, which means you lied.

If the Word of God revealed that what they had believed so intensley for so long was misguided or merely a man made tradition... do they not do well to embrace the Word of God leaving traditions of man behind?

unbelievers? Unbelievers don't usually know or care about the UPC Holiness standards. Unbelievers don't walk into a church and think "short hair on women"... where did you get that?

You think an unbeliever cares if a woman has cut hair? have you been out in the world? And a wig...isn't that deception?
