TOPIC:    ACCEPTABLE DRESS CODE FOR HOLY WOMEN.  MONDAY AUGUST 14
TEXT:       Matthew 5:14-16
KEY VERSE: “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31.  

The believer must not dress wild, strange, or foolish, claiming it is because she is holy. She must be decent, clean, neat and good looking. Her dressing must be satisfactory to the holiness community who should praise God for her. The following should guide her dressing.

  1. Her breast region should be properly covered.
  2. The neck of her blouse or gown must be properly raised so that her back and breast regions are not unduly exposed.
  3. The sleeves of her blouse or gown must extend at least to her elbow, for short sleeves.
  4. Her blouse should have enough allowance in the body and should be long           enough not to expose the bare body on bending position.
  5. The gown likewise must have enough allowance in the body and should reach down beyond the calf region of the leg.
  6. The skirt also must have enough allowance on the body and must reach below the calf or three-quarters region of the leg.
  7. The calf region of a woman in wrapper, skirt or gown must not be seen in            her sitting position, the must not be pulled back exposing the region between the calf and knee.
  8. If she is putting on a sleeveless dress, it must be on top of an inner dress with sleeves.
  9. A woman who is putting on a suit must make sure her dress obeys these rules.
  10. Some kinds of see-through clothes are indecent to use, even with inner lining; the inner linings are clearly seen beyond the clothes.
  11. This makes a bad impression to the viewers. However, some blend well with the inner lining as one cloth. Laces with broad holes should be avoided as they make a bad impression on the body even with inner lining. It is indecent also to see some women revealed by light as not wearing under wear at all or putting on too short under wear.
  12. Women must take heed to the scripture and avoid masculine dresses. Trousers, slacks, pants and masculine shirts should be rejected by the women.
  13. The buttons of the woman's blouse, gown or skirts must be given special attention in design and fixture not to allow exposure of her breast, stomach and underwear.
  14. Women should avoid splits or slits on their skirts gowns.
  15. There are some dresses which the moral society allows both men and women to use; such is called unisex. These include polo and T-shirts. Christian women have the liberty to use them, if they are befitting and do not affect godliness in appearance.

Note that what the woman puts on as underwear which is not seen with the eyes of the people around her does not condemn her. Let not the woman fill guilty for what she uses as underwear.

Thought for the day:    Dress holy to the glory of God.
Song for the day: Create in me a clean heart O Lord.
Bible reading for the day: Psalm 99-102; Romans 13

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. FACTS TO BE UNDERSTOOD ON REVELATION MESSAGES WEDNESDAY JANUARY 11 TEXT: NUMBERS 12: 4-8. Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20. God has given revelations to many in our days and He is still in the business of doing that. The choice of these messengers is His sovereign will. Some of these revelations are written in books for all to read and some are shared verbally. There are scriptural facts to be understood on these revelation messages. They follow the pattern of scriptural revelations in the Holy Bible. Some are given in plain, simple and direct language, while some are given in pictorial language and figures of speech. The recipient of the revelation may be an ignorant person whose understanding is unfruitful, hence, he may not be capable to interpret the revelation received. Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
