To wear or Not to wear?

One of the biggest issues in the church, and with Christian women in general, is dress. There is a time and a place for everything, right? When you’re on the beach, people expect you to be almost naked because you’re in a setting where if you were wearing a snowsuit, folks would look at you like you have ten heads.


Or, if its 95 degrees outside, people expect you to wear a tank top and capri’s or shorts because, again, if you had on a snowsuit, they would look at you like you had ten heads! Besides, it’s not good for the health, to wear a snowsuit in 95 degree weather, just to prove to people how modest and conservative you are.


But, what about those young ladies that don’t know where to draw the line? What about the young ladies that confuse the beach with the streets? What about the young ladies that can’t separate the club from church? What do men think of women that KNOW what modesty is and KNOW what's appopriate and what is NOT in a church setting, but still don't want to look descent?


Stay tuned, this may get quite interesting.

Very interesting piece but this is the core difference whn it comes to islam. The minimal dressed a woman must be is to have clothing that goes past her arms and knees and this is simple to not be considered naked. A modest woman covers her body in loose clothing at all times. God sees you whether your in'the club or the church' and you should always have standards for the way you conduct yourself in all situations.
