felicity ,now seriously, don't you think that the Con girls evy the ones who can wear one ??

I think that most girls would love to have a nice engagement/wedding ring set. Yes. Absolutely. And many of those who can't because of where they attend church do so later if they move away from that kind of pressure. I know because I've seen it happen over and over.

I can't speak for whoever posted that......but the Pastor I was talking about said he could see how people's facial expressions changed when they saw a girl pushing a stroller without a ring...He said he heard people make comments like, "it's too bad that baby doesn't have a family or a daddy"
or other inappropriate comments

Scenerio:

A married woman who loves God is eight months pregnant and has twoo small children with her at a grocery store. A spiritually hungry person notices that she has long uncut hair, no make-up, and wears a long skirt w/no slit. They start talking about God, but the spiritually hungry person notices that the Lady he/she is talking to has no wedding ring on, and starts to feel uncomfortable talking to her. The person who was spiritually hungry then finds a way to politely exit the conversation, never again to talk to this lady. A week later this person dies unexpectadly (doesn't matter how) without ever getting all he/she could have got because of the wedding ring.

Does anyone here think that maybe her witness would've been better recieved had she wore a wedding ring, or do we simply think that this woman was right because of a teaching that she recieved regarding no jewelry whatsoever?????

My DS noticed (we were co-pastoring with him at the time) and he complained about the fact I wasn't wearing my rings. He felt that rings were important and that if you were married you should at least wear a simple wedding band.

It's been known as one of the strongest districts outside of Louisiana in many regards Thad. It's a place where God's favour and blessing rested and was apparent for many years. Still is although sadly, as in many places, changes have taken place.
