Holiness and women's attire

Friendly Face Posts: 346 **5/11/17 9:04 pm**

now that the picture has been removed of a COG lady what is the standard of dress? How should a lady on the stage/platform dress? What is appropriate or inappropriate dress?

Was the lady's dress inappropriate? Are there any standards?

I am lost as to removal, etc. But modest dress varies with many folk. I do not like pictures showing measurements of skirt lengths, sleeve lengths, sleeves/no sleeves etc.

Today many holiness women, good folk will wear a bathing suit in public at the beach. I can remember when folk went in the ocean fully dressed less shoes. I bet we were a sight. I was fully clothed my first swim in the Ocean.

I think most women of God can tell the difference in 'Suggestive garb' and stylish clothes.

WE must always decide what women should were it seems. Wheterh it be clothes or jewelry. Sad

We get sorta Muslim at times. Sad

Were they pastors? Confused

Holiness is not something you do...it's something you are.

And the only way to be holy is through the blood of Jesus.

I don't know how one can come up with a specific dress code from the New Testament. One does indeed find modesty and moderation mentioned in the New Testament, but beyond that, there is not much to go on except culture and tradition. Quite frankly, it is not clear at all that, say, a woman dressed in Amish garb or in a burqa or a nun's habit is somehow necessarily more holy in dress than a woman wearing a T-shirt and blue jeans.

Sometimes I get a chuckle out of the Google ads that appear on these threads.
The one that was just listed said "Bright & Cute Yoga Pants--Perfect Workout Accessories. Smooth moisture-wicking compression fabric designed for athletic core support." Smile

Holiness believers ridiculed

This is what liberals see and hear when the subject of how COG women should dress. If you bring up old time holiness this is what you get by the progressive sanctified crowd.

Moderators should delete this Assembly clip as inappropriate.

Aren't you supposed to be rejoicing about the ridicule inasmuch as it is an indication that you are the truly sanctified one--you know, just the persecution you endure and all that?
On the other hand, you could try to have a reasonable dialogue about the subject, which would mean looking at what scripture actually says and not spouting off prooftexts like a macaw.
Of course, I think if you really desired a reasonable discussion, you might have engaged with Cojak, Carolyn, or Quiet Wyatt, all of whom had serious responses.

Holiness is not something you do...it's something you are. And the only way to be holy is through the blood of Jesus.

Is there scriptural support for that?

Charles, where in the New Testament do you find a specific dress code?

that women should have a meek and quiet spirit

Friendly Face Posts: 346 **5/12/17 11:27 am**

having a meek and quiet spirit is an imposition from men to their women!

the result of this imposition is our modern feminist movement within the COG

most meekness and quietness is pretentious much more than the outward adornment. Modern hypocrisy exceeds the old COG's hypocrisy.

It is all about the hearts and the ears and uncircumcised hearts and ears abound in the Church. Hardness and resisting the Holy Ghost!

What if a woman doesn't have a husband to be in subjection to...does 1 Peter 3:5 give her a pass to wear anything she pleases then?
