@pastorgregmarshall: Are Apostolic holiness standards legalism? A fellow creator challenged me with a fair question about ministry qualifications, modesty, and what we emphasize in our preaching. Here’s my response. We can disagree about Scripture without becoming enemies. #Apostolic #Pentecostal #Holiness #Legalism #ChristianTikTok @Gregory Lewis

I thought apostolic Pentecostal people said that the reason why they don’t cut their hair, don’t wear makeup and wear skirts and dresses only was a personal conviction? If it’s a personal conviction then why are you forcing people to wear it if they want to join the a church or part of a ministry? That’s not right. Not everyone has the same convictions. So it’s either forced on you and pressured or it’s a personal decision between the Holy Spirit and you. That’s why I think the apostolic Pentecostal movement is for crap. 🙄

I have a question. If you or a Apostolic Pentecostal church teaches women shouldn't wear pants ( don't wear anything that pertains to a man) then do you allow your wife to wear pajamas that might have pants to them? How about sweat pants in the house while cleaning or just to stay warm during winter months? If indeed it is wrong out in public then why ok at home? Jesus still sees her in the home and what she has on in pants, whether pajama bottoms or full fledged jeans. Make it make sense to me please.

Amen! Well said. I’m UPCI, and I actually feel as though the new convert women are convicted about modesty and begin to wear skirts on their OWN accord…. On the other hand, the “clean shaven” standard for men seems to be WAY more of a hiccup than anything. Mainly because there is no Bible to back it….

I think Paul said it best in Corinthians..if people would read ALL the chapter.. "if any man comes to you being contentious, we have no such custom neither do the churches of God" another words..its a CUSTOM not a "rule"

So do the ladies in your church wear pajama pants? Because if it’s only a sin when others see you, it’s not a sin 😜 Your movement calls them “standards” to spiritualize what they actually are, and that is rules. They are rules without Biblical truths to support their relevance in the Christian life. You claim you are “measuring” their salvation by checking the standards, but what you are really doing is placing yourself in Jesus’ role as our mediator. Salvation is the work of the Holy Spirit, and ONLY the Holy Spirit, not a Pastor giving a “Bible Study” on what the modern church has decided pertains to a man. If you really preach the “whole counsel of God,” you’d know that truth will always trump interpretation. And contrary to your belief, the truth cannot be added to. And if you truly believed the whole Bible, you’d know that salvation isn’t measurable anyway. We are supernaturally regenerated at the Cross, and when we are led by the Spirit without a big-mouth preacher in our ear, sanctification hardly ever leads us to shave our beards or throw our pants away.

Very well said. I apostolic Pentecostal and I wear pants but I do not hold a position in the church if I did or if I felt that the Lord wanted me to be a part of the ministry then I would respect the fact that there is a dress code for that position. Look at it this way, jobs require a dress code whether it be a uniform or whatever and we have no problem conforming to that dress code but the minute a dress code is required to hold a position in the church we want to become defensive make that make sense. I really appreciate the way you handled this question!

I was friends with a lady that was raised holiness. She ended up with a rare disease and ended up with an ostomy bag. Pants worked better for her. When she was in the hospital, as she often was, she was visited by "ladies" of her church, and they literally told her she was going to go to hell for wearing pants. That is why twisting scripture to make a church culture is wrong and I fear for the salvation of those who judge others by it.

If you preach standards like this, you only want those that uphold these to go to heaven? If not a heaven or hell issue, why do them?

Being in the UPC church for 50 plus years, I have seen people filled with the holy ghost instantly change their outward appearance, I've also have seen people slowly change their outward appearance. Sometimes God has to.deal with internal things people have before the external happens, but I have never saw a.person who was dedicated, had a prayer life, read their Bible, consistently asked for God to lead them to truth and revelation for their outward appearance to not eventually change. I have also saw people have the outward appearance of holiness and be rotten on the inside, so, therefore, they did not have a prayer life etc...In my 50 years of living for God, consistent prayer, reading the bible,.asking God to open my eyes, give me discernment, give me knowledge, wisdom, understanding and insight has God ever told me that I have made it, I am 100% perfect. He always reveals something else that I need to.work on.
