Amen, If you stand for nothing you will fall for anything (old cliche
saying)  :)

We used to look like the Amish, until the Church followed the world in dress
and overall appearence. If we continue at the current rate by the time my
son is grown (He is now 15) the church will look like the world does now.

Since the world has changed many-fold in my lifetime I percieve that what is
accepted as normal will be blase' in a few years. Just the other day I saw a
young man in a car with a nose ring hanging below his mouth.  Shocking, to
me, but what lies ahead?

Our standards are our protection, walls around our churchs and our families.
When the church stops obeying the standards, the angels cease their
occupation of protecting the saints.
