One of the best things that ever happened to me was to realize these things are not heaven/hell issues... so now I do not care what others are wearing... it isn't my business.. if it is a conviction... it is for me... if it isn't... It really doesn't matter what other's do.

When I wore my wedding ring, I saw it as an outward sign that I was married a sign of committment. My daughters purity rings.. are worn as a sign of committment to remain pure.

I think jewelry is adornment and should be worn in moderation, but personally believe that we should be consistant... if you are going to allow a string of fake diamonds on shoes/hair clips or whatever, you shouldn't care about a bracelet or necklace.

I also believe the Holy Ghost is more than capable of convicting someone if their adornment is too much. I am living witness of that H.G. conviction... he has spoken to my heart more than once. Amazing how that can work.
Amen Sister.

Spoken like a tried and true warrior of good and righteousness of the heart.

Good for you, sister. You know that I'm all for you. I think of you often and pray that you are doing well. You've been through a lot. It has made you a strong and discerning person too. You are beyond groveling for approval of men. You are to be commended.

So, WH, please tell me, how does wearing a ring make your hand less holy?

Jesus said it is not that which is without but that which is within. Ya wants to argue with Him?

ChT .... it's useless to argue with a group of neo-Pharisees that sincerely feel they have a corner on truth. I know many of them will be surprised on that day ....

I would be satisfied with a certain level of coherence, even if debate is unattainable.

Define Jewelry. How about belt buckles? How about hair pins and other assorted ornaments? How about broaches and some shoes?
