A statement about separation in a church's doctrinal statement is like saying, "Look at me, I'm a Fundy." and usually is evidence that "lifestyle" issues are added to the Gospel, such as drinking, smoking, movies, dress, often with a peculiar local interpretation of what Christians should be doing about all of these issues.

I, myself, am always suspicious when I hear churches that always talk about submission, rightly dividng the Word, or...the subject of this post, "separation".. it is code talk...
