Bob Ross brought this same WHBC mentality of cover up and intimidation to our church in Mesquite Tx. He came into a tough situation with a lot house cleaning to do. He preached a lot of "get over it" messages while people were hurting. Men that went to him with concerns were mocked and trashed from the pulpit. The core of the church left and he never visited or reached out to any of them. His main focus then and still today is trashing any family that leaves, and men with facial hair.
So glad to be out of that mess
I wonder if he told his wife to 'get over it' when their daughter passed away.
I have always found that odd when Jesus the Son of God a perfect man that we owe our salvation too for his sacrifice and is preached by the likes of Bob Ross and Vineyards. Jesus had facial hair, but it is a sin for members of their churches to have facial hair and they are not allowed to serve God if they do in their churches because facial hair was a sign of rebellion. This is what they preach about members having facial hair.
If you have facial hair you cannot sing specials, usher, teach a Sunday school class, guard the parking lot or hallway, clean bathrooms etc. according to their religion.
Isn't that saying that Jesus himself is not perfect and had the sin of rebellion in his life for having facial hair? Which would make Christ imperfect for his rebellion and the whole Bible a lie.
I have never understood how they could justify this stance using the Bible, (which they can't it was a man made rule).
