Oh no!!! The Dam's gonna break!

Ties are demons of bondage, and they choke out the life of God in the wearer. They have been cast out of my life, and I am not going to give them place to come back, less I be 7 times worse than at first.

There is some acceptable ground in between the two. It's not hard to find it.

I agree!  I was shocked to see the sloppy dress...especially on the platform...My Momma raised me better than that!
Blessings, Rhoni

My husband dresses in a suit and if it is too hot a nice shirt dress pants and tie for services...I am proud of him! He is our minister and our pastor...however we have NO HALF to's how the ministers dress here in the northeast as it is very hot and many of our churches do not ever have a fan!
In the south where it is cooler I notice the pastor's mostly all wear suits...

Ties are optional in my church Crisp clean "business casual is recommended to all who on my worship team.
We discourage blue jeans and tennis shoes.
The percentage of men who do not own a suit in America is huge. We do not want our guests to feel like they "went to the prom with out a tux"
We have many that do wear siut or sport jacket with a tie,
We don't feel those who wear ties will be lost when Jesus comes...just less comfortable ;-) TIC....please don't shoot me.

Many things in Pentecost have outlived their purpose, and if we are not careful, they can become an object of worship.
Adaptation is necessary for survival.

Bro. Tatum,
Why must we be the ones to adapt and adopt the practices of our culture? I find your premise to be factual but ultimately a straw man created to justify your desires (nothing wrong with the desires but yours nevertheless). Certainly we can make an idol out of anything, including those things which are holy, but desiring to present a professional appearance doesn't fall into the category of idolatry and you are scone with too much marmalade to make this comparison!
Love you! Have a great day. I must now go to work.
Admin, how is this for a first post?
