I thought we were supposed to be different, not just look different.
If we would worry as much about what's inside our people as what they look like, we wouldn't have to worry so much about what they look like.

I assume you are a man.

If so, please tell me how you dress differently than other men.

And don't use the extremes like men at the beach or men in tight clothing. Most men doesn't dress that way.

Men as well as women don't wear shorts, short sleeves, jewelry, toupes or hair pieces, change hair color, makeup. Women don't cut their hair and men don't have long hair, women don't wear pants.

Actually-

Jhn 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

2Cr 6:17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean [thing]; and I will receive you,

1Jo 2:15 Love not the world, neither the things [that are] in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

I haven't seen where we're not suppose to look like the world. But my post had nothing to do with "looking like the world" It had to do with being different from each other.

Good point. But when the inside is right with God we will want the outside to look right also.

You said we should look different.

I'm asking how you look different, not what you don't wear. I know lots of men who don't wear shorts, short sleeves (especially this time of year!), jewelry, toupes, colored hair, long hair, or makeup (thank God!).

If I were to see you in a mall, would I be able to pick you out as Apostolic? Everyone knows you can pick out the women, but why can't the men be picked out?
