just for the record God actually did not allow adam and eve to use only fig leaves to attempt to hide there nakedness. Gen(3:21).[SUP]
21 [/SUP]Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
it seems that there always seems to be a debate and sometimes arguing over dress code of women when it comes to church.
we never find such debate or arguing when it comes to our respective places of work.
Think about it wether it be a policeman,fireman,bus driver,pilot,retail store worker,restaurant employees etc no one hardly ever complains because they have a level of respect and understand it is up to the employer to decide how they want to be represented and most employers want their employees to dress in a specific uniform and look decent and covered up.
Also the employees know if they do not conform to the specific dress codes they may be fined or fired.
why is it when it comes to Gods instructions on outward appearance we have endless debates and arguments?
Gods instructions on clothing for men and women are very clear.(
I Timothy 2:9,
I Corinthians 11: 16, I Peter 3:3,Deuteronomy 22:5,Exodus 20:26; 28:42,Exodus 28:2).
The problem is that this is not being taught in modern day Christianity because the pastors,preachers etc are afraid of offending people and losing their meal ticket.
They also lie and tell people that God is ONLY concerned with the heart which is a lie from satan to send souls to hellfire and torment.
matthew 18:7 reads:
7Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!luke 17:1 reads: One day Jesus said to his disciples, "There will always be temptations to sin, but what sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting!
I think it is clear that there is a punishment for anyone who causes another to stumble and one of the easiest ways to cause a Christian brother to stumble is for women to dress suggestively exposing parts of their body which are only meant to be seen by their current or future husband.
we should not take this lightly and I would advise any professing Christian woman who tells another Christian woman that she should wear whatever she wants to take a closer look to see if she is in the faith.
This is not the time to play around.
May God grant us the grace and wisdom to accept and live by his guidelines of holiness both inside and out in Jesus name amen!
