| Looking back on it, what is the strangest, craziest, most unbiblical, etc. teaching on 'outward appearance' issues you have heard or read about.I understand the Bible actually mentions gold and pearls and people interpret those verses in different ways. What about some of the other teachings you have heard?I read about a pastor who preached against stockings without seams. He said if your hose didn't have a seam, to draw one on. I saw a Oneness blog who asked what young Pentecostal preachers were trying to prove by having a beard. He did not like to see beards on Pentecostal preachers. I had a conversation with some Fire Baptized Holiness who thought a plastic wrist watch should be forbidden, but a silver pocket watch (not gold) was okay. I found out later that one of them drove a yellow Corvette |

| I had a pastor tell me I couldn’t preach because I had a mustache.I know a slew of people that were forbidden to wear wedding bands or any other type of “adornmentsâ€.Then there was the church that handed out handkerchiefs to ladies they thought needed to cover up certain body parts “Hell will be filled with people that didn’t cuss, didn’t drink, and may even have been baptized. Why? Because none of those things makes someone a Christian.” |

| That's why it's always a good idea to bring your Bible to church, just in case you need something to read |

| As with the wearing of gold and pearls, at least there is some scripture they are interpreting when they do that |

| The French cuffs from the 50's I heard my dad talking to another pastor who had gold cuff links and a gold tie clasp. the pastor asked my dad how he kept his tie down. dad turned his tie out showing a safety pin inside his shirt. He also had french cuffs and mom had sewn two buttons together for his cuff links. Dad said, I cannot in good conscience back teaching that some say prevent jewelry on our ladies, while wearing unnecessary jewelry my self. But that is just me.My dad knew how dogmatic I WAS as a young man. He drove 1000 miles out of his way to tell me about the wedding band because he loved the COG and was worried I would leave the church. I was still married 30 years before I got my wife a wedding band. Yeah, I was sure the COG was right hallelujah to the Lamb. The COG would not teach enforce something not in the Bible, would they? (Course not)I just knew it was a sin for a woman to wear one of 'em fancy combs in their hair. AND forbid the thought of Cutting or Bobbing hair! Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/ |

| Kind of reminds me of how some Pentecostals try to argue for teetotalarism when faced with certain Bible passages |
