Note: I've adjusted the language of this post to make my position clearer. That which I have added or changed either has <ADDED> tags or is set in bold. I do not believe every student there, or every teacher, is guilty of what I am saying. And I did not post this video in the OP or this response to Charlie to, in any way, mock PCC or single them out. My position is that I reject the type of christianity that they teach, and any christianity that makes obedience to man-made laws and regulations the basis of spiritual growth or salvation. And please read Luther's quote knowing it has played a large part in my understanding of how I ought to approach exposing error.
Also, as a confession, I originally posted the song and rules for the sake of humor (not out of self-righteous superiority, but to put light on the connection between their theology and practice), but, upon reading more into the rules and reading some of the posted replies, that connection became clearer and overnight it has completely changed my view of Arminian theology and Phariseeism and I was led to this response. And I am sorry, out of a human's pitiful heart redeemed by God's unfailing grace and filled with His Love, to any who have taken my words personally; it is not, nor was, my intention to single anyone out, let alone the institution, to bring on an ungodly shame or guilt. In the same way, I do expect everyone to read my words as I intended them, in the context of the faith and practice of the institution, institutions like them, and those who willingly adhere to their Christless commands.
I'm slightly disturbed at this thread. Posting the song for consideration is certainly appropriate, but posting it with a list of "ridiculous" rules makes it seem like the OP just wanted to slap the school in the face.
I went to BJU, the school PCC is modeled after. I think both schools have excessive rules. However, neither school would argue that all their rules are straight from the Bible, or that your church and home should operate by them. Is it really ridiculous and sinful to have a curfew? Are they religious wackos because they prohibit appliances which could potentially cause fire?
At what point do those of us on the outside become legalists for nitpicking every one of their rules? At what point during our superior laughter have we become the self-righteous ones? Really, as the video graphically portrays, their list of rules is one of the least of their problems.
The point of posting the rules along with the video was to bring their false teaching to light; not only their doctrine, but their practice. Their legalism IS as deceptive and damning as their theology, its not the "least of their problems." The fruit on their trees are rotten.
If the christianity they teach is all their students know about God, salvation, and Christian living, then they are going into the ministry as false shepherds. <added>I do not believe that every person there believes these things and is ignorant of Christian liberty and the Gospel of grace, but I do believe those who believe (ie trust, "pisteuo") that living by their standards is a means of spiritual growth, or even salvation (Arminianism), have a heart of stone on which are engraved man's laws as well as God's. These are those who are deceived and being deceived. This is not judging men's hearts;
if obedience to the law is the measure of spiritual growth, then it is also what they are trusting in for salvation. This is what Galatians 3
2,3,15, 25, 27) and 4
9,21,31) and Colossians 2:20-23 are about. The law does not give life, faith does; God's laws or man's laws CANNOT produce spiritual growth for it is what condemns a man before God. (Romans 3:19,20 Hebrews 7:19) This is the Gospel, we are saved from the ministration of death and its demands AND we are brought into a life that loves, follows, and approaches God FROM FAITH TO FAITH. God not only saves us from hell, but from corruption; he not only brings us out of bondage to sin, but leads us in that liberty of the Spirit. I don't want to preach about this, and shouldn't have to. Faith is the mechanism of the Christian life; this is the aroma of Christ to those around us.
These who are trying to become righteous, either in Christian maturity or salvation, by following the law and man-made laws should not be considered Christians just because they profess Christ.</added>
If I profess with the loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the Word of God except precisely that little point which the world and the devil are at that moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Him. Where the battle rages there the loyalty of the soldier is proved; and to be steady on all the battle front besides, is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point.

This is so horrifying, in the saddest sense of the word, to a Christian who knows the grace of God and how sincerely God desires justice and truthfulness in the inmost parts. This is not to be self-righteous or have a sense of superiority. Sure someone can watch the video, read the rules, and just find it funny and thats that, or someone can watch it and read the rules and say "i'm glad i'm not like that.."
or we can watch it and read the rules and say "that's not Christianity."
They
(those who create and enforce their man-made laws, NOT every student or person there) measure a person's spiritual growth according to how well they
(every student) obey their man-made laws. So, in the eyes of the school, at the end of a 4-year stay, the person who has 0 demerits is more righteous and spiritually mature than someone with 100, when in reality the person with 0 demerits could be a white-washed tomb and the person with 100 could be a believer going through sanctification.
They,
the rules and those who enforce them, bind men's consciences and bring these people, if they are Christians, out from the yoke of Christ and put them in bondage to the law again. This is evil and cannot be called good even if it appears to be good. This kind of christianity is thoroughly antichrist and ought to be rejected completely. Why should we defend someone or a group of people
(those who create and enforce their man-made laws, NOT every student) who bring shame on the name of our Savior?
Its interesting to me how everytime I point out false teaching in the church on this board, someone thinks its rooted in self-righteousness. I just hate evil and the appearance of evil and the shame it brings to Christ when it is professing Christians doing the evil. I don't take pleasure in exposing error, for the error itself breaks my heart. It doesn't make me proud that I'm right, it makes me sorrowful that they're wrong because they don't know the grace and love of God and are working as hard as they possibly can to get it. These are holy affections and the Holy Spirit Himself reveals these things to us. Whatever makes manifest is light.
The leaders
(those who create and enfore their man-made laws, NOT every student) of groups like these are not confused; they have rejected the Gospel. Its not a game where we are supposed to try to make sure nobody in modern christianity is offended, thus trying to balance everyone
(who professes Christ) and their heretical beliefs. The Arminian theology is not their biggest problem, their Phariseeism is because that's what they
(those who create and enforce their man-made laws, NOT every student) are trusting in to make them righteous.
Those who know the truth of the Gospel and reject it end up like these people
(those who create and enforce man-made laws and make them the basis of Christian growth and/or salvation, NOT every student). They (those who create and enforce their man-made laws, NOT every student) end up worse than before they knew the truth, like Peter says. (While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption) They die because they have no knowledge or understanding; they (every student)are being led astray by false teachers (those who create and enforce their man-made laws, NOT every student)! There really is a correlation in that those who reject the teachings of the grace of God in the Gospel end up confused and worse than when they started.
The post below is a good example; someone who does not accept sovereign election after awhile ends up saying that election is man electing God to be his savior, and that the reformed doctrine of election is a system of works. That's utterly blasphemous. And herein lies the problem: will the Holy Spirit lead a man to believe that election is a work of man and that the sovereign election of God is a system of works to get to heaven? Likewise, will the Holy Spirit lead an entire Christian college (its leaders and visionaries, those who create and enforce their man-made laws) to make up a bunch of man-made rules and make obedience to them the basis and measure of Christian growth? That's NOT Christianity.

Its not just an accident or an isolated occurance at PCC that hardcore Arminians are Pharisees (those who create and enforce their man-made law, NOT every student).
And instead of taking a stand against those who teach a legalistic gospel or a works-based gospel, we play that game where we try to balance everyone's beliefs just because they profess Christ. After all, "we aren't supposed to judge anyone or else we'll be judged!" The JWs profess Christ but their teaching is false and we reject them. So why don't we reject those Pharisaical groups and churches that reject the Gospel? Just because they say Christ is their Savior? Its complete garbage, from their faith to their practice its false and deceptive. Paul called his Phariseeism DUNG. But we may as well be one of them if we are going to tolerate their teaching; because in that tolerance we make no distinction to the outside world that we are different.
Again, read Luther's words and consider the time in which he spoke them and how they ought to be relevant now, in a day when the Gospel is being compromised for the sake of a Christian unity that is false.
If I profess with the loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the Word of God except precisely that little point which the world and the devil are at that moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Him. Where the battle rages there the loyalty of the soldier is proved; and to be steady on all the battle front besides, is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point.

I know some teens that love them.
BYU has similar rules but do allow women to wear pants (note that bleachers + skirts = bad idea) and show edited movies on campus. Note the BYU sports teams do dress for the sport (there is a magic garment exemption for sporting events....)
