You can post that till the cows come home to prove your point but I've been attending a Pentecostal church since I was old enough to see over the top of a pew, roughly 50 years or so, and not every single woman in a Pentecostal church abides by the guidelines you posted. Just because the United Pentecostal Church International says it, it doesn't make it so.You may see some churches where a majority abide by the guidlines, but very few where each and every member do.
Not every Pentecostal church is associated with United Pentecostal Church International. There is a lot of division within the Pentecostal movement so one size does not fit all where rules are concerned.
NOt EVERY SINGLE PERSON OF ANY church abides by the standards of ANY dogma. What the hell is that supposed to mean to the doctrine of the specific sect of christianity? And, seems to me that the UPCI is a tad bit more relevant to the doctrine of Pentecostalism than you and your 50 years are.
and yes. RELEVANT CHURCHES DO FOLLOW GUIDELINES. How many pro-abortion catholics churches can you point at? DESPITE the actions of any abortion having member of any given catholic church?
sure sure... snakebiting pentecostals do not fit into the official language either.. HOW, exactly, do they reflect on the actual organized pentecostal church?
