Re: Tucked Out Shirts

I think the Bible is quite clear that ministers are to wear suits, preferably black ones, white shirts, and ties.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Re: Tucked Out Shirts

Jesus wore his garment to the foot (Rev. 1:13), and I'm sure it was untucked. So, if it's good enough for Jesus then it's good enough for His ministers.

Re: Tucked Out Shirts

I know it's not a sin for a preacher to wear a tucked out shirt,but my mother always taught me to wear a shirt tucked in. Personally in my opinion it looks better but that is just me.

I don't care if he wears animal skins and eats honey and locusts as long as he is anointed and on fire with the Holy Spirit, judges righteous judgement, and preaches Biblical truth.

I don't care but tucked out is an oxymoron

Amen. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter what one is wearing. What really matters is what's inside. Someone can dress up all they like, but with out the Spirit's anointing, it's all for nothing.

Re: Tucked Out Shirts

I'm not a huge fan of screaming, ranting preaching... the kind that leads to a minister throwing off his coat, pulling off his tie and pulling his shirt tails out of his pants,... But if someone is dressed more casually from the start with an un-tucked shirt... well... that's OK with me. Young people tend to be much more casual in their dress without seeing it as disrespectful.

Although I have to say that one of the biggest laughs I ever got in church was from an 'on fire' preacher who was ripping off clothing and un-tucked his shirt tails... He was not a very tall fellow but ws kind of big around and the tails were below his knees! He definitely had the Jesus look going after that!
