You, as a man, are trying to teach people that it does not matter at all what the music sounds like, what they dress like...I, as a man, want to see people stand in fear and reverence before God, showing in their outward appearance what is inside their heart as a way to let people they were genuinely changed because of receiving Salvation...which of us is following the Bible again?

I am sorry, I do not agree with one thing of yours which IS poor, blind, and naked -- your judgmentalism.

You accuse people of twisting your words, yet you twist mine. Obviously there is an extreme downside as well.

Again, please tell me how this has anything to do with dress?

Again, what believers must show on the outside (their "outward appearance") is what is on the inside, in their hearts.

A fancy dress with pantyhose and high heels is not what is in my heart, nor would the world give a hoot if it were. (Or the world just might be turned off at my shallowness.)

What's in my heart is a burning love of God and a desire to live in a way that pleases him---a desire that I work to bring to fruition each day.

My faith should affect my "outward appearance," meaning my countenance and my demeanor and the spirit in which I present myself to the world.

My faith doesn't have jack to do with how I dress. Sorry.

The attitude you are preaching is harmful to the cause of Christ.
