That being said, I am still against jewelry. By the way, that ring on the prodigal's hand was not a mere decoration, but was a signant ring showing that he could do business in his father's name. It goes to show that a backslider may pray back through and be restored to the power of God.
AND wear a ring if it signifies something...

You're walkin in the flesh son. That is nothing but outward unholiness.

Re: Dr. Gerald Jeffers

....And outward holiness often described as a "HIGH or low standards"?

(High, ya know like the tower of babel got pretty high.)

I mean, why exactly refer to it as HIGH?

Clergy laity type of mindset me thinks ...

I wanted to stand up and ask him: "Dude, did you just not realize what happened BEFORE you stepped on the platform, or were you too busy with other things on your mind?"

I wasn't impressed after that...
Found this thread regarding Jeffers. Some of the posts seem to reveal the same sentiments I have...

Re: Dr. Gerald Jeffers

I was wondering how long it would take people to begin to wake up. The 1st time I heard him around 2005 I knew he was off.
Now he is starting to be persona non grata in a few districts that were formally fans.
