You teach that holiness is defined by the quality of your clothing.

No, You twist my words. I say that the heart attitude is reflected through the way a person dresses. If a person has respect for the place and person, their dress reflects that.

I would bet that 99% of the people reading this would put on a shirt and tie to have dinner at the White House with GWB.

Yet, I am afraid that less than 30% would wear a shirt and tie to stand before a Holy God in worship on Sunday.

Which is more important?

All that proves is that they are not social morons and that they care about what people think of them. Oops.

Doesn't say a darn thing about what they think in their hearts about GWB, and dressing up for "church" doesn't say a darn thing about whether individuals fear and reverence God in their hearts, which is what matters to Him.

I don't like to go to church dressed less nicely than how a dress at work. Therefore, jacket and tie is the norm for me, even though most my age wear dockers and polos.
