BIBLICAL TEACHING ON CHRISTIAN DRESSING FRIDAY MARCH 23
TEXT: 2 TIMOTHY 2: 19-21
Key verse: “Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God” 2 Corinthians 7:1.
When a person is born again he is to be taught all things the Lord has commanded us in the Scripture. Not all preachers of the gospel bother about the outward appearance of a believer. But holiness cannot be achieved without freedom from worldliness in physical appearance. Any believer that does not want to conform to sound Christian teaching on Christian dressing, in modesty and sobriety, is not holy and cannot see God. Biblical teaching on Christian dressing is not for everyone, but for women professing godliness, who seek to be holy women. This teaching is aimed at raising holy men and women for God in these last days, to present a church without spot or wrinkle to Christ at His second coming, Hebrews 12:14. Founding fathers of many Christian assemblies taught against the use of Jewelry in Christian dressing, in the light of the Scriptures, to keep their members holy. But when the ministry of the founding fathers and those of their immediate successors passed away by death, leaders of succeeding generations succumbed to inward pressure from their members and allowed the use of jewelry, arguing that it is none essential or that the scripture has not really prohibited their use. The founding fathers of such assemblies did not put their conviction and doctrine into writing to make it plain and accessible to all succeeding generations. This doctrine was only emphasized verbally and when their members ceased hearing of them, their conviction weakened and faded away. The message and doctrines of the gospel were best preached and preserved through writing. There are hard scriptural texts on jewelry that require exposition to make their meaning clear. When these texts are misinterpreted or not rightly interpreted, they become stumbling blocks which make many to lose their conviction on the doctrine. Apostle Peter acknowledged that there are some portions of scripture which are hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable misinterpret to their own destruction and to the destruction of those that hear them, 2Peter 3:16.Majority of Church leaders are misleading all the children of God to hell with denominational idolatry, satanic fashions and worldliness. They have left the true gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Thought for the day: Prayerfully study to shew yourself approved unto God.
Song for the day: Open my eyes Oh Lord
Bible reading for the day:
Joshua 9-10; Luke 3

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
