In Christ Jesus Chris Man's authority, man's pattern, Christine. There's a counterfeit Christ being preached, one that requires robes, rituals, repititious readings, and reverence of vestment clad clergy. In the past the debate was known as the "Vestarian Controversy", apparently initiated by one John Hooper who rejected clerical vestiments in the Church of England under Edward VI, an assertion later revived under Elizabeth I. Quote: He (John Hooper) maintains that priestly garb distinguishing clergy from laity is not indicated by scripture; there is no mention of it in the New Testament as being in use in the early church, and the use of priestly clothing in the Old Testament is a Hebrew practice, a type or foreshadowing that finds its antitype in Christ, who abolishes the old order and recognises the spiritual equality, or priesthood, of all Christians. Sourced by searching: Vestments Wkpd. I can't imagine the 12 Apostles had much interest in priestly embroidered robes and ceremonial headgear.
