I disagree totally. I do not dress to draw attention to myself in any way. I do not flirt. I'm not even friendly.

It's easier to gnaw on each other and try to make a difference in this world and I'm speaking to myself.
And I'll say this some folk are more concerned with what's on church signs and than really behaving like the church.

My wife wants no part of jewelry. She is a good God fearing woman. She won't even wear any clothing that has sparkly type things on them. Those sweaters that women were wearing a few years ago with all the shiny stuff on them, she would wear those, she said they were ungodly.

I don't want her to be lost.

I see a lot of comments going against Bro Whole Hearted. Let me interject that it is okay to assault one's position, but throwing out mean spirited comments in ungodly and should not be done. This does apply both ways and is said with all respect, especially to Bro WH who is also my elder in Christ and a personal friend.

To you who would attack his position, why not try a different direction and ASK him why he feels like he does? You may be surprised at his answer. You may not agree with it, but throwing out negative comments is the same as biting and devouring one another which the Bible is implicit in its condemnation concerning the behaviour.
