Bro. Joe,    I agree with you 100%, but in order to get to the spiritual side
of holiness, we have to deal with the physical side of humanity. It is
impossible to teach holiness as you have illustrated in your post, if the
converts have not repented and are still serving there old task master. There
should be people in our Churches at all stages of developement as for as
holiness is concerned, but it will always start on the physical are
elementary levels of holiness.  And as a result of having all these levels of
spiritual growth, it is necessary to cover all these bases in our teaching.
