Women in pants

A Jesus Freak?:godisgood: This ever dying world needs a few more of us!

 

:love2: :laugh:

I don't "frown" on it, I PREACH against it!

We're in the Lord's business of preparing others for service and that requires separation and that old "peculiarity" aspect in all manner of Christian living!:smilewinkgrin:

 

Thank you, because if you did, I just might get my post "snipped" for suggesting something about you. But, hey! wait a minute! other BB members do that to me all the time and they don't get SNIPPED!

 

Generally the truth does not get "snipped."

 

The female members in modest apparel would cewrtainly limit the aspect of lust from the male perspective and not have much effect on others, well, except maybe some angry woves planting that sharp elbow in the ribs of some husband.

Nice community effort to bring people into a church society and maybe some to Jesus.

Our ladies would have shown up in the same way in dresses with pants underneath to keep their legs warm, and covered. we haven't had the blessing of an ice storm in a couple of years.:godisgood:

Thank you, you sound so proud.

The matter is not to question them, but for Christians to make an impact upon them.

All you've done is proven that the world could care less and many Christians as well. This is just another symptom of the church sliding more and more off into apostacy and worldliness.

Funny thing, our ladies do similar projects and people are always asking, "What church are yall from?", without ever wearing anything that has the church info on it. Other groups do things of this nature too, but not many ever ask which church.:godisgood:

 

When one asks a question it is to establish truth.

Attacks on the person are opinions and not established truths.

[personal attack and implied threat snipped]

 

Personally, I think too many are confusing how we dress for certain functions, and how we dress for worship services. I think there is a difference.

Having said that, I would welcome a person who came to church regardless of how they dressed. They must handle the attire question, not me.

A.W. Tozer came to preach in wrinkled suit. I never heard anyone criticize him. Or challenge his spirituality.

Cheers,

Jim

 

Well, you know- some preachers just cannot stick to the example of Peter, Paul, and the other Apostles and just preach Christ crucified, dead, buried and rose again the third day for our justification. They have to add man's standards to it to please the inner control freak.

I have always believed that it is no man's business but mine as to how my wife dresses. Any preacher can stretch the Bible any way he wants to on the subject of pants but when it comes right down to it, my wife is in subjection to me and me alone.

 

No personal attack except how you attacked me for insinuating I made one.

But whatever, anything a moderator supposes is absolute "truth" on BB.:laugh:

 

The emphasis being on the reverence for whose house we're attending. the world wants the church to be just like it. this thread is very telling.

 

It's all about modesty, not preferences in attire.

Since you've made the reference to sexuality, do you ride side-saddle? [crude comments deleted]

 

I supose you'd object to paul preaching against adultery just like Jesus and John the Baptist did!
:tonofbricks: Those CONTROL FREAKS!

It's all a matter of modesty, if you don't care how modest your wife appears that is between you and God and her, but for the time being, I WILL PREACH modest apparel, just like the BIBLE does.:jesus:

 

The church building is NOT "God's house."

The Christian is.

There's too many "Christians" who have been "white-washed" on the outside and inward are full of "dead men's bones."

 

Apples and oranges- the Bible is very clear about adultery being a sin. It is not as clear- as a matter of fact you have to do all sort of homiletical gymnastics- to make women wearing pants a sin. (Caveat- I am speaking generally here. Some of those women that wear 'em like they are painted on are IMMODEST- and I am sure that Annsi would agree).

No one is against preaching MODESTY. That is a clear Biblical standard also. But the control freaks want to make everyone else live by THEIR dress (jeans, shorts, pants on women, wear a tie, etc....) standards- no matter if they are supported by the Bible or not.

And I do very much value my wife's modesty- she has the kind that counts: 1 Peter 3:1-6

Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;

While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.

Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:

Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
