I know exactly where you are coming from. we are from the same area. there are more than one daughter in our area that out dress everyone in their churches. we know where they go to shop in the city right? don't think some of their people don't notice and don't talk about the lifelstyles, the country clubs, the cars, neiman marcus,etc BUT they are conservative?? I'm not getting it. can someone fill in the blanks?
The picture that the world is seeing sums up with one word" INCONSISTANT!
Seriously Though ,my dad has a first cousin ,and this cousin's mom and dad were first cousins.
But it don't happen much any more it goes on in Georgia though I bet.
It probably does. My sister is in CO now and she told me that people in CO make jokes about folks in Georgia marrying their relatives. I had no idea. LOL
Uh....He was God. God isn't Jewish, however, when He made the choice to be born, He wasn't born a Samaritan, Greek, or any other Gentile. Had He been born one of those, He would have adapted to that culture and society and not been a Jew.
Ever wonder why God just didn't appear on the scene instead of being born and going through being human? It's not like He never appeared before men in the past, so why didn't He just come down as a man and start preaching?
Because He wouldn't have been accepted by anyone at all, that's why. He had to come down, adapt to being human, being a Jew, and living life as they did. This is something He'd never done before.
Not sure I understand your point?
Jesus Christ didn't have to adapt to being human. He was/is human. Did you have to adapt to your humanity? I don't think I did.

Ignorance of the Identity of the One True God is not a valid reason to practice idolatry.
By nature ,males and females look different we're born that way ,so that would go into hair as well.
Long tresses of hair look femine ,buzz cuts look manly.

There they can find plenty of fault.
Jesus did NOT violate any Scripture in trying to win them to Himself. That is the point I'm trying to make. He did not become like them to win them, pure and simple.
No matter who they were, He loved them and called them to follow Him. He did not change Himself or His message to fit with the culture.
Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever.
I believe He became like them to win them in the same sense Paul became like them to win them.

I try to ONLY buys things on sale. I wouldn't brag about NOT buying things on sale. That's called stupidity to me.
I think she wanted me to know, hey I bought this for full price.--I probably go around the church and tell everyone I get things on "sale" without realizing it--so someone had to set the record straight that they don't!
