I am just saying that if you are looking to be offended I can guarantee you will be.

This hyper sensitivity extends to many aspects of life. Many OP's are world wise but many are not.

Some have lives that are so wrapped around church that they have little social interaction in the community,etc and when are faced with situations where people do not dress like they approve of or act in a way they approve of then they are deeply offended and upset.

For example if I go to a Titans NFL game I go for the football. I don't drink beer,etc but enjoy myself immensly. Out of the scores of games I have gone to I can count on one hand the number of times I have heard or seen anybody do anything inappropriate.

However on the rare occasion it does happen I consider the source and it just rolls right past me. I know some folks who if they heard a curse word yelled out would just be shocked, upset, and all out of sorts.

That OP would say that him or her not going to a Titans game is the solution. I would say that this is not the seperation we should be concerned about. Our christian values should exhibit themselves at sporting events, entertainment events, etc just as they do in every other aspect of our life. That is being a witness.
I've yet to meet a Oneness Pentecostal that ate, slept, worked and lived 24/7 inside a local church building and even then, never have sinners come that dressed inappropriately or perhaps they are always blindfolded.

I am not saying he is wrong but perception is everything and I don't know his.

Also sometimes OP's are so sheltered things jump out at them that no one else notices. Hyper Sensitivity to others not sharing their dress code.
Not perception as you describe it, my friend. It was right there on the screen in plain view for all to see.

Of course some have lost their ability and sensitivity to perceive modest from immodest - lasciviousness from purity and decency. Their perception would not see indecency if she were to preach in a see-through blouse. They would justify it, defend her, then try to find what was right about her preaching in that kind of dress rather than to encourage her to cover her exposed body. And they just keep playing the game.

Her seemingly intentional seductiveness brings a reproach to the Church and to the Name of the Lord Jesus. I highly question her morality and her integrity. If you want to play games, play the game somewhere else other than the Church. Let God's righteousness prevail.

I immediately emailed TBN about it. I still have the email saved. They emailed me back and gave me an email address to contact the PW ministry, which I immediately did. I did not hear back from them as expected.

It was a lacy black slip looking dress above her knees and the neckline was low and her cleavage was exposed and the top of her breasts were exposed as she "preached."

It is the truth!

Give me a break folks, nobody here believes that is acceptable for a "minister of the Gospel." You have got to be kidding me!
You are a legalist she was SHOWING folks she is not a legalist.
