Bible Question:
Rom 13:10 Love does no harm to its neighbor. 1 Samuel 16:7 But the Lord said to Samuel, Look not on his appearance or at the height of his stature, for I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as man sees; for man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart. My question is regarding immodest attire being worn by women who consider themselves to be Christians. It seems that by the time she is an adult, any young woman (Christian or not) would well know that the majority of men are very vulnerable to sexual sin/temptation. I've been told that it's possible for women to continue to dress in a sexually provocative manner even when their heart is right. Agree or disagree? |
Bible Answer: cuhigher - Welcome to SBF and thanks for your question. May I recommend that you pay no attention to the misinformed person who told you that it is all right for a Christian woman to dress in a sexually provocative manner? Ask him to cite book, chapter and verse in God's word that even remotely suggests such a preposterous thing. Read what Paul wrote to Timothy concerning women in the church with regard to their apparel and behavior (1 Timothy 2:8-15); and 1 Peter 3:1-3 teaches that wives maintain chaste and respectful behavior, and condemns ostentation while enjoining modesty and meekness. ..... I fail to see that the two verses you quoted in your question have anything to do with immodest feminine vesture. --Hank |
