I've posted why, but it breaks my heart as well. I have longtime friends at that church.

Re: Prominent Memphis Area Pastor Resigns

Having taken time to read the 17 pages of this thread, I do proclaim that we should pray for these people. However, at least one post noted that the evangelist who preached the "Holy Magic Hair" doctrine preached numerous times at that church. How many UPCI folks believe this doctrine? Is it false doctrine? I believe in a woman having long hair. Forgive me for using the term "Holy Magic Hair," but I am not sure what else to call it. Is this a generally accepted doctrine in the UPCI? I am curious. Not meaning to be harsh.

Do a search on the forum. There are a lot of threads devoted to the subject. You can read about it and then post on the threads to bring the subject back up (if you want).

"Holy Magic Hair" is a term coined by those outside the belief; not those who embrace it.

Not to be confused with Unholy Bobbed Hair found on some witches and most soccer moms. Just so you're clear when doing your search.

Re: Prominent Memphis Area Pastor Resigns

There is nothing like a preacher's downfall to bring out the Monday morning quarterbacks and the webcam prophets. Whatever the pastor did wrong, as soon as he repented, God forgave him. God didn't get together with holy trinity and analyze the pastor's indiscretions.

If our goal is to be like Jesus, a good place to start is intercede for the city and those affected by the abrupt departure. Pray the collateral damage is minimal, if at all.

True,obviously man has enough respect to step down if he thought it was right to do so.

What made you think he did it voluntarily?

"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."
