You people sure are above me, you see no evil, you speak no evil and you think no evil. you guys must already be living in your glorified bodies.

Trust me i've probably been around in years longer than you have. I realize what people wore in biblical day's and no one wore pants, male or female. The standard of dress today is for one thing promoted by Hollywood fashion designers. It's geared for sexuality. There are scripture that lays out...

I tried to find your interpretaion of worship in the Webster dictionary and a bible dictionary i have but it's not in there. I don't think it is postional because one could not worship God except he include his body. The true worshipers worship God in spirit and in truth.

I guess in your oppinion the scripture that i put up is all legalism. I guess you would rip out all scripture from the bible that has to do with how a christian should act, how a christian should dress. Are you people Antinomians ?

Ok, we have a snow ball headed down hill now so let's go a little further. This one lady see's all the other ladies wearing pants so she decides to wear shorts, after all the pastor has learn't to avert his eyes, no harm will come of it. God knows i just want to be comfortable as i can be and...

No one is above temptation, Godly man or not. No one is above sin, Godly man or not. I guess a lot of deacons and pastors wives have ask the same question as you ask when their husband left town with another woman of the church.

In the heading i put worship service in there for a reason. What does it mean to worship God in a worship service? The word worship means to honor or reverence, to idolize, to lift up, to adorn. IMO we are there to center all our attention on Him. We are not there to serve God but to worship...

My mother use to say when i was growing up, water is free and soap is cheap, no one needs to go dirty. When someone chooses to wear a certain type clothing it set's the pattern for others. Let's say one lady in the church starts wearing pants for whatever reason, another younger woman with a...

What is your view about this, What are the good and/or evil of including this in the worship service ?

I would refer to 1 Tim 2:9-10 and also to a comment on this subject by John Gill. with shamefacedness and sobriety: these are the two general rules by which dress is to be regulated; it is right and proper, when it is consistent with chastity, when it is not immodest and impudent, and more...

I guess this is the sentence that you assume i was speaking of myself. As you can see i used the word men therefore making it a statement in general. Also i try to make it a practice not to be offended by peoples insults our lifted up in pride by peoples praise. I too don't expect the world...

In Mark 12:25 talking about the rising of the dead in Christ, For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels which are in heaven. I think angels are are referred to as men because it denotes power that has came from God either in word...

I'll agree, the world is in the church, usually you can tell them by what they say, how they act and what they wear, or the lack of what they wear. I don't think a christian should lower their standards for the worlds sake.

I guess people can come up with different points of views to suit their own life styles but the bottom line is, it is scripture that should guide.

I thought we were discussing what people wear at church not what the world does.

The scripture say's in 1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but of the world. Adam and Eve before the fall were naked but after the fall God put clothes on them. You say clothes are not the problem, i...

In your first sentence you remind me of people that are bent on telling someone what they really think, to wait on their reaction just to come back and say, oh i was just kidding. You can also apply the word assumption that you used toward what i said about pants to your first sentence also. I'm...

No i would not attend. IMO all church services should be about wanting to come for one reason and that is worshipping God rather than calling attention to titles of why people should be there.

In all the churches i attended as a child growing up people dressed up or as the saying goes they put on their Sunday best. In some churches in my area they still do but as the times has changed you see less men with a suit on and tie or a lady with a dress on. I know clothes don't have anything...
