6. Long Sleeved shirts (at least 3/4 length)
7. Uncut hair for women, short cut hair on men.
8. No Facial hair on men or women
I wouldn't consider that an official conservative stand to be honest ..... (speaking of the apostolic movement as a whole) .... but more like an Ultra-Conservative stand. I made the point earlier that most of the women in the apostolic movement wouldn't be living up to most of that list.

Why?

I am sure the list could go on, and there may be slight variations on some of the above.

Why would anybody want to dictate what others wear, in your own words, "Good Grief".

Just read that list, and image the Creator of the Universe going down that list. "Uh..Oh, look at that split it is 1/4 inch too long "....to the pit with her!!" "O, no look at that goatee, fry him!!!"

When this thing is all over and we are in the presence of the Almighty for eternity...time without end, we just might be surprised to find how much or how little importance He placed on the things we have debated over.

I am through trying to dictate what others should or should not do...I'm doing well to make a list for me.

Keeping Barb on the straight and narrow is a full time job...

Since those of PCI belief have been kicked out of the UPCI, they are no longer under the old guard standards police. Since they no longer are required to hold certain "standards" to retain fellowship or for political reasons, they are now free to preach and teach their godly conscience!

Well if you are asking if believing PAJC is what makes people believe standards...all you have to do is look at the Amish.

CB: most folks who have been blessed to see and understand the "PCI" veiw on salvation also have been blessed to see the falacy that is in so much of our "standards" doctrines.

So, yes, I am PCI and NO, I will not impose false holiness doctrines on Gods children.

I don't believe that God looks upon His family in terms of liberal, moderate, conservative, or ultracon. So often on AFF someone will challenge terminology being used demanding Scriptural proof. Yet we all so freely use these unbiblical terms. We are all members of the family of God. The biblical terminology for our relationship with one another is "brother" and "sister". Man loves to compare themselves among themselves, even though Paul said it's not wise to do so. God simply sees us as His adopted children and relates to us as a loving Father, who shows us much more grace than what we tend to show one another.
