Separation from the world is not about cars, houses, or gadgets! It's about SIN! If something soley promotes that which is unclean, no christian should have it or do it! Whether it be TV, immodest apparel, wearing clothing for the opposite sex, etc!
You threw in the part about women clothing, and the word still says not to wear apparel of the opposite sex!
So the world says its okay because we have "womens" pants now? Since when did the world standards define what we do?
If the world says its cool for men to wear skirts, do we just change our stand with the times and say its okay?
The world may change, but God's word doesn't.

Would you wear one of Hillary Clinton's pant suits since, according to your reasoning, they "pertain to a man?"

Daniel had no choice but to live in bablyon, the king tried to feed them with food that was against the word of God. Daniel knew he had to eat, but he refused to eat the kings meat that God warned against! it was sin for him because of the law.
Separation from the world is not about cars, houses, or gadgets! It's about SIN! YES
If something soley promotes that which is unclean, no christian should have it or do it! Whether it be TV, immodest apparel, wearing clothing for the opposite sex, etc! Promotes that which is unclean??? You may need to define this further. Need your help. Reading a book and telling a story contain content that are ungodly. That doesn't mean that sin is being "promoted." That's a blanket statement. What's the last movie you've seen? Come on, you can tell us.
You threw in the part about women clothing, and the word still says not to wear apparel of the opposite sex! So let's see you rock a pair of "women's pants."
So the world says its okay because we have "womens" pants now? Since when did the world standards define what we do? Easy. That's how it's gone down forever. It's not that the world decides what's sin, we, as a culture, define what is feminine or masculine. Don't believe me, check out China or Scottland a few centuries ago -- heck anywhere for that matter, before pants. The world cultured pants eventually to be a masculine object (not God), and now they have feminine pants and masculine pants. Is this so difficult?
If the world says its cool for men to wear skirts, do we just change our stand with the times and say its okay? Bible doesn't speak to articles of clothing! Men in the Bible wore skirts and robes that were technically unisex. Bible speaks to men being men and women being women. Don't miss the forest for the trees.
The world may change, but God's word doesn't. Exactly.

Just think about what you're saying.

Just roll with it.  The whole place often breaks down into one big chat application when "the posse" rides in. Mr. Cox is a bit young to fit "the posse's" typical profile, but I'm nominating him. He's good clean fun.
Give him a minute and he'll exemplify just what you were talking about earlier.

Re: Why am I labeled backslid and unusable by God
Sorry 19. It has definitely been hijacked. Someone is fresh from a conference where they felt the anointing to go set everyone straight. Fact is, maybe God did send him here. Except, he didn't realize the purpose. It'll be good for him.

Its ok, its fun to read. I just wanted everyone to realize Im not the one trying to defend what I represent.
Everyone needs to pray and work out their own salvation..Im pretty sure the bible says that. When we get to that point God will be pleased.

Most of the sensible folks here know you weren't.
Some others protested rather harshly, quickly and suddenly. Makes me wonder.

So in biblical times, both men and women wore robes, yet they were cut differently... nowadays both men and women wear trousers (I try not to use the word pants because it causes my friends from the UK to laugh hysterically), yet they are cut differently. If there is a modesty issue for women wearing trousers, then there is a modesty issue for men wearing trousers, since men quite frankly have more stuff between their legs to hide.
Being of Celtic descent, I've often thought of wearing a kilt, I don't have one, and probably never will, but I doubt my ancestors 300 years ago would have thought they were feminine garments. Why is it okay for the MAN's garments to change over time, but not the woman's?
