What's Wrong With Facial Hair - Page 12

ThePastorsCoach · #**111** 05-03-2007, 09:57 PM

Poor Ole Jesus - Didn't have as much revelation as Paul as He was living under another dispensation and didn't really have THE TRUTH according to Facial hair.
So now - Who cares that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ did not address ONCE - facial hair, beards, mustaches, goatees, cutting hair, trimmed hair, shaving heads, plucking eyebrows, finger nail polish, pants on women, make up, jewelry - oh wait now - just because he preached about putting a RING on the finger of the prodigal son - HE WAS NOT ENLIGHTENED! He was in darkness in another era!
OH - I see it now - It is coming to me - He was not Baptized in Jesus Name in your Pool and did not speak in tongues at the altar!

Lord have mercy - preachers doing their best to preach these extra biblical doctrines.

I do not feel is should be a test of membership and fellowship as does most of the WD does as well and probably most of UPC.
the Hippie days are pretty much behind us. most of the ones that are hippies today are wanna bes

I agree with everything BUT your first sentence. I do think it is a personal preference. Facial hair...the appearance or lack thereof.....has no preference or acceptance in the business world. There are lots of men with five o'clock shadows, goatees, etc. I think those with beards keep it nicely trimmed and groomed. I think it is very rare to see the "Santa Claus" look these days.

Like you, I believe facial hair is NOT a sin. PERIOD. To try and defend it as a salvational or holiness issue is hogwash.

I'm glad I've some got good shaving gel.But I can't use hair tonic though.

Hey, no need to lump all UPC in this - I dare say most are asolutely not of such mindset.

Um, hardly.

I don't agree with the author and his stand on this. I think it is pure ridiculous as he pointedly admits that there is no basis...then tries to defend it and say it is more about respect to the pastor.

I know the author's name. Hardly what you claim him to be.

OK - I stand corrected - I changed it to YOUR pool!
I know you Union guys are pretty sensitive about things like this.

How did he know you knew me? It was your church then I was going to go to in a couple weeks for some concert....but I hear it has been postponed.

Yeah. We were looking at some myspace places and I saw your pic and said I knew you and he said he met you down there.

Yeah the concert will be in June I believe. Kinda works out better because they have not finished getting fliers printed and passed out. I will be there..I hope. We originally scheduled it the day it was to be on so it did not clash with our mens prayer meeting. I think they changed it partly because my Pastor would not be able to be there that day and he wants to go. I will have to make sure they don't schedule it on the same day as our men's prayer...or maybe I will just make it a morning prayer that day...or maybe on Friday instead

CAN SOMEONE tell me why a POST has to go through an administrator before it can be posted?...Maybe I had a link on another thread that linked to organic foods, but why here? I was just citing some facts about colonial America and facial hair. I didn't read the rules here, LOL...Someone enlighten me. Have I offended anyone? If so, I am sorry. Am I going to be banned? Will this post go through?
