>> I guess what bothered me most about the beard after we came into the
Church was the feeling I could sense from others of our faith when we
attended functions (outside our local Section/District) where we were
not known (i.e. General Conference, East Coast Conference, etc..). So
many people "assumed" my husband was unsaved because of the full
beard/mustache.<<
What does that assumtion say about these people? I've watched people come
back to my father; ask him if he wanted to come to the altar and give his
life to Jesus. At the time he was the Youth teacher in his church. His
response -- what makes you think I should. Has God told you I'm doing
something sinful? You really should come to an Elder in private. This has
left more than one person slightly redfaced.
