Seriously, for me it is a personal conviction as I have already previously stated. Ranks right up there with tv for me. I won't have either.
Will I condemn others for not having the same conviction as I hold?
I am not their judge. I will allow God to do that.
I do teach that it is better to shun these things since they do have worldly connotations IMO. I do not feel that they contribute to godliness one iota. Do you?
Which of you having jewelry has become more godly since obtaining them?
Isn't the fashion of this world something to avoid?
My convictions.

Well given the context of the discussion we were having and given why this verse was posted to begin with, I guess I just don't see the point you were trying to make, if any. Sorry

No aplogy necessary. I was not really making a point so much as attempting to answer Theo. He wanted a response and I tried to give one, though I knew it would not truly be in keeping with this thread. It wouldn't have anyway, at least not in the context given.

Here's a question how much do preachers spend on a new suit for a conference ? How many are wearing costly array?

You have to understand that this is simply another one of those situations where God is being inconsistent!

Was pride what caused him to fall???????????? The passge says it was because of his beauty and part of that beauty included jewels. Simple to me.

I can't answer for others, but I can honestly say that I do not spend a great deal on these things. They're just clothes.
My wife does not plait her hair or style it for that matter. That would be inconsistent with scripture.
Who used that word anyway?
