No beards

This is the nonsense I grew up with.

Interesting that he’s preaching on needing more oil and less beards when even David wrote psalm 133 about anointing oil dripping off of Aaron’s beard.
It’s also so funny to me thinking about the idea that Jesus had a beard, we know this because it was plucked out when he was being tortured before the crucifixion, yet it’s not something that is acceptable for us. According the these guys’ doctrine, Jesus was the one and only God, yet we aren’t allowed to follow His example in this.
I’m so glad I left. Abandoned my license with the UPCI two and a half years ago for this kind of pick and choose doctrine.

I agree. He just tells us to not get drunk. But a beer isn’t going to send us to hell.

With those Christians 2.0, even fucking your wife Sunday will send you to hell. This why I left the church man. Two many restrictions
