Modest Apparel

Oct 17 | Posted by: MGMT |

1 Timothy 2:9-10 "In this manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with humbleness and sobriety, not with braided hair or pearls or things of great wealth, but let them adorn themselves instead with good works."

1 John 2:16 "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Lord but of the world.

As humans, our sinful nature is attracted to things that are not modest. We know that it's wrong to lust, but it's just as wrong to dress and act in such a way that causes people around us to lust. That's why the apostle Paul says, "Let women adorn themselves in modest apparel." But it's not just the girls that need to be modest, guys also need to be very careful about how they dress and act. I want you to remember these things: your clothing on the outside should represent your Godliness on the inside and your clothing and actions shouldn't be a stumbling block for others.
