Thank you for your reply, Saladin. Most people either just laugh about it or say that the old covenant doesn't count anymore - but the new one does, which is true of course and I agree on that - but that doesn't mean the Biblical definition of nakedness has changed. The definition of lying or murder haven't changed either.
And it's a shame that many Christians today would buy any clothing they like, no one seems to care about short shorts or short skirts being worn while I and many others find it sexually enticing when the upper leg is shown of a woman. I have heard even girls saying they get sexually enticed by boys wearing very short shorts or showing their upper body.
During the entire existence of Judaism and Christianity, the first time they start to wear clothing that is shorter and more revealing than ever before started in the last century. Yet, I get criticized for talking about it. Secretly, they are just scared of not being liked by this world because they would get called old-fashion and grandma-like or medieval and things like that. This, to me, proves what Jesus said, narrow is the way and few will find it. Not everyone saying Lord, Lord, will come to Him, but those who do His will. "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." Romans 12. A Christian is different from the world both in a spiritual as well as in a physical way.
Regardless of all this knowledge the Lord has given us in His Word, there have been scientific reports that stated that when men saw portions of women's upper legs, parts in their brain started to become active that are usually only doing so when they are operating or using objects, not persons. A different part in the brain is used for having a conversation, which one would think would activate when a man sees a woman, but in the case of the thigh being shown, is much less. When the masses love you, you should be worried. When the masses hate you, you should be comforted. Hard, but true. God bless.

Right Belgium, the definitions of stealing or murder haven't changed and neither has nakedness. You are however, expanding the definition beyond the scope of which the scripture says. Nakedness from the BEGINNING, was no clothes at all. Once sin came, Adam and Eve were ashamed and made coverings for themselves... loins/made aprons... then God came and said that is not good enough... I will make you a CLOAK.
Now if you will please remain right there <pointing up at teaching> for a little while and meditate on WHAT the nakedness represents in this context.

So, according to your way of reasoning, this picture can be a Christian outfit to wear?
It covers the buttocks and genitalia. She's not naked. Where are you going to draw the line? If a brother or a sister in Christ has a weakness (his flesh being tempted) and the other brother or sister knows it and still continues to wear short skirts that he finds sexually enticing and he lusts after her, who do you think is guilty here?! Ultimately, both; but it is a disgrace that many Christian women aren't listening to their fellow brothers in Christ who have problems with short skirts. And this is not because they're short, it's because the skirt being short is sexually enticing to them!

So you're comfortable with the fact that many women (both Christian and atheist) wear short skirts and this causes many men (both Christian and atheist) to lust after her and commit sin? Nakedness is the same as 'your shame', people used to be ashamed of their upper leg being shown but it took the devil less than 100 years to make this go away! It's sad though, when you look at the Jewish women, they are dressed modest and when you compare them to most Christian women today, the difference is way too big. Though they're spiritually blind for accepting Jesus as Messiah, at least they know what modesty is. I don't think many of them would approve the upper leg being shown, we can learn a lot from the Jews I believe.
I sense the Lord being mocked for what he expected of us.....people thinking they know better and the Lord should get hip with the times man...I agree that some clothing is too revealing...especially for Sons of God who may find the daughters of humans beautiful...If that isn't referring to fallen angels then it must be speaking of those faithful to God intermarrying with unbelievers...which soon led to the thoughts of humans to become evil all the time...this could elude to the fact that it may not take much temptation for even God's elect to fall away...if that were possible...I feel we're closer to resembling the days of Noah than is being admitted.
