Another SPLIT from the UPCI???

And furthermore, I personally don't know what Rex Johnson believes, so if he asked Sandra to sing then I'd say he's okay with her "outside"!

How will you feel on the platform of a pastor who wholeheartedly disapproves of your apppearance?

He must not disapprove too much if he's invited her to sing.

He is the type of preacher who has signed an oath to preach and teach that he wholeheartedly disapproves of women cutting their hair and wearing makeup.

Do you think that preachers should be silent on lifestyle issues?

ML.......I would hope you are right.......Rex Johnson has always been a favorite of mine...........I know in the past he certainly did not approve of cutting hair and makeup. .......

He's a card carrying UPCI preacher - why would you not know what he believes?

You can't be a card carrying UPCI preacher without signing a promise to preach and teach that you wholeheartedly disapprove of women cutting their hair and wearing makeup.

Maybe he's hoping to win Sandra by showing her kindness?

Maybe he's a hypocrite? And I'm not a UC

Maybe he just cares about her and feels that he can do more to reach her with kindness than condemnation.

The UPCI seal on his ministerial credentials plainly declares to the whole world that he wholeheartedly disapproves of cut hair and makeup.

Sandra may feel the love in Austin, but I hope that she doesn't mistake it for approval.

The love is free, but approval will cost her a bun and a bare face.

You know, I can see where the uncut hair doctrine comes from, but where in the world does the no-makeup doctrine come from? There is absolutely no scriptural support for that. I am totally amazed that it has held on this long.

Why are high heels okay? Sheer nylons? Hair curlers? Hairspray? Oil of Olay? Slinky fabrics? All of these things were designed to enhance a woman's appearance. And most of them started out with prostitutes.

Just seems so weird to me.

Hypocrite is a strong word.

You won't find me using it in a conversation concerning such a great man of God as Bro. Johnson.

I've never noticed that UCs have a corner on integrity.
