Would you keep someone from seeking salvation because they weren’t wearing a suit?

The sacrifice of being respectful and dressing appropriately, not like a slob, is part of the price.

“The sacrifice of being respectful and dressing appropriately, not like a slob, is part of the price.”

Those are mans conditions, not Gods.

Is there a sign on the front door of your church that lists what can and cannot be worn because if you don’t dress properly you will never be Saved?
The sign on the front door of my church says “no perfect people allowed, come as you are”.

I agree.

Modesty is a Christian virtue. Showing respect for the occassion is a sign one has had proper home training. Dressing properly for Church shows one understands both of these concepts.

Many judges have rules for courtroom dress and decorum does Jesus deserve less than our legal system?
