Are mullets allowed? We really need to bring that back for old times sake.
It would be best to not go into what could be called legalism, but neither into liberalism, either, but rather strikimg a moderate course pertaining to clothing, accessories and attire.
What say you?
What am I doing on this thread?
I see we need some good old fashioned holiness, peculiarity, separation. Myself included. America sucks because contemporary “Christianity” sucks, that’s Biblical. If my people, which are called by my name, etc. It’s also observable. When Christians were putting Jesus first, fearing Him more than man, living by Biblical standards, this was a better place to live, souls were being saved in greater numbers, the world was being won for Christ. Now, we’ve gone away backwards.
The Duggars are a great family, as sweet and approachable in person as on TV. More importantly, they win souls and disciple people.
If I remember my exegesis correctly (and I may be mixing things up here) "thigh" here is a euphemism for the private parts, that swearing while touching the master's privates would be the equivalent of swearing while placing one's hand on the Bible today. Nothing sexual was meant by the gesture, however.
The Duggars are good folks, I believe, and I say more power to them for helping to populate the world with conservative Christians.
But I do think they can carry things a bit too far sometimes. The little girls in the family wear dresses even when playing outside...not necessary, IMO.
Also, I recently saw part of an episode where one of the young ladies was being courted by a young man. He placed his hand on her back as they were walking along, and the Duggar dad reached over and pushed the guy’s hand away. The girl is in her mid-20s, I believe.
Come on, now.
A.) Men and women can both wear pants, as long as men don’t wear womens pants and vice versa.
Well Obama Fails at this point for sure...
Goodness sake folks, they are not telling you what and how to wear stuff, so why not just recognize their family love and chosen standards and leave them alone!
I know that every on e of those loved children will eventually make their own decisions about dress etc, and they will just fine for it all.
For the record, if more families behaved like they do ,America would likely be much safer, respected and respectable.
Harrumph! Good thing you are not neighbors, otherwise you’d likely be calling Arkansas Child Services on them.
It says that both men and women brought forth rings, nose rings, necklaces, etc (all jewelry of gold). Both men and women wore these things - even men and women who were Godly in heart.
Numbers 14
31But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.
32But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness.
33And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness.
34After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.
35I the LORD have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against me: in this wilderness they shall be consumed, and there they shall die.
1 Peter 3: 3-13
It does not appear that peter was talking about the adorning to cover nakedness, he was talking about the adorning for show( to show off)
People who are lucky just to have clothes to wear are not wearing them just to show off.
Also Paul explained that if a woman was going to cut her hair short like a mans she should just go ahead and shave it as it would be all the same and then put a sack over it to cover it up.
The reason for Pauls comment is because some of the people were trying to bring in the customs of the people who worshipped the Goddess Diana.
Paul summarized in the verses below.
13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.
16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
Hair is the only covering a woman needs.
We do not have this custom they are trying to bring into the Church.
did this put the fun in fundamental
or
just highlight the mental in fundamental?
