Are Sunglasses Worldly Apparel and Costly Array?

Would sunglasses be considered jewelry?

Abraham, Isaac and Jacob didn't wear them. Would Jesus wear a pair of Oakleys or Raybans? Is it wrong to pay over $100.00 for sunglasses? Is it wrong to wear sunglasses at all?

I've been in intense prayer and fasting to find an answer. Can you help me?

As worldly as owning a Jaguar ....

Sunglasses protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. It's possible to harm your eyes from direct sun exposure.
Are expensive sunglasses wrong? It depends on your budget. One should never go into debt to purchase an item so you can impress someone. If your checkbook can handle fancy sunglasses ------go for it.
I would lose them and be horrified at the amount of money they cost and then I lost them. I have good quality clip ons, cuz us older folk need trifocals and the fancy smanchy sunglasses wouldn't do the job.

Is this an issue? Tell me no. Do pastors or saints spend their time thinking up
"standards" ?

off the wall, but true; there is a church that instructed their ladies not to use shoulder purses on their shoulder and then across the body....because it drew the eye to the chest area of the female.
On the rare occasions I cross the purse it's for safety..(purse snatchers etc).

I heard there is one Texas pastor who can vouch that none of his lady saints wear lingerie panties.

Depends on how much ya paid for them.
If someone pays more than 10-20 bucks for a pair they is definitely sinning!
Cuz they ain't worth more than that!

Would wearing Oakleys be "following the trends of the world"?
