Second If a person goes to the church God has led them to and the pastor sets a standard for men to be clean shaven then you disobey then you are in rebellion and that my friend is a sin. Why is it ok for UPS, some major airlines, US Military to have requirements for beards but if a man of God feels the need then he gets attacked and labeled as a radical.
Are major airlines, UPS, the military teaching salvation? Most pastors who teach against beards will then bring into play "obey them that have the rule over you"....

BTW, I pastor.


Again, BTW, the ones you listed do not have requirements for beards, but against.

Please.....

I could be mistaken, but I don't think the by-laws of the UPC say anything yeah or nah against facial hair.

Should be interesting, as I am going to a district function next month.

We'll see what the UPC thinks of it I guess.

I went last night to see my dad with a beard for the first time in my life and what a fine Pharisee he made - Lil!

The drama was The Messiah and it was absolutely WONDERFUL!

I throughly enjoyed it and I usually don't enjoy these type things, but it was put together so well and of course we heard "The Alabaster Box" - great song!

Great job Buffy and all! BTW, I think your hubby should keep his beard - he looks great!!!!

Never heard it referred that way before. Excellent point. I suppose that is where the women not wearing pants is also found.

My husband grew a beard once. Actually, it only takes him a week to have a full beard - that's why I believe in evolution!

Anyway, he looks like an Illegal alien and with the Border Patrol cruising around here, he thought he had better shave.


AND MY SON BETTER BE GETTING A HAIRCUT TODAY!!!!!!!
