Many Christian congregations are ignorant and they argue over truths that can pave their way to heaven. One of such is in clothing and adornment. Many in the church today believe that they are at liberty to dress as they like. They claim that God only looks at the heart and is not concerned with our appearance. Ladies dress in provocative ways that seduce men to lust and sin. Matthew 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Women adorn themselves with make-ups, jewelries, ornaments, attachments, wigs and different kinds of artificial things to attract others to themselves, rather than to Jesus Christ our Lord. They wear short skirts, short gowns, trousers (pants) and decorate their eyes and hair with all kinds of artificial materials, all for the purpose of seduction. Although they may want to argue otherwise, that is the truth.
The men are not left behind in this matter. Today we see young men, even the elderly ones wearing earrings, neckless, chains, rings. The married, including enlightened Christians, wear wedding rings. These are all against the scriptures and are damnable (1Timothy 2:8-10). They tattoo themselves, maintain ungodly hair-cut, expose their under wears and come to perform in the church as musicians without the slightest reproof from their parents and pastors. Isaiah 30:8-13 Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever: That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the Lord: Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits: Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us. Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon: Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
Thought for the day: Dress to glorify God; not yourself, not Satan.
Song for the day: All the glory must be to the Lord, for He is worthy of our praise, no man.....
Bible reading for the day:
Numbers 5-6; Mark 4:1-20
