I'm sorry about that. I hope that you can find a new place to go to church. I probably would have left the church too if my pastor would be saying things inappropriately in the pulpit and then get laughs from the congregation for doing so. Inappropriate is inappropriate from the pulpit on down into the pews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I could escape the frustrations of what our secular world is by being with other Christians in a Church but that was not the case.It was not originally like that it just kept getting worse.

Its not hard to dress modestly with out being strange . I also would say she should be careful not to make herself a stumbling block to others , by the way she dresses . Some think they can dress any way they like , thats not being considerate of others , and could be sinful more than they know . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checkered Bermuda shorts, no socks, leather half sole house shoes, and a dirty "t" shirt... y' know, like all our Dad's did in the 1960's sporting the Drew Carey haircut and glasses.

Actually I get your drift. Women are vulnerable to visually lusting after the flesh (to a degree) the same way men are... especially these days when women are trained to behave like men... but unless a man is trained to perceive women in another way, men's visual lust for women goes beyond what the opposite could ever be. Just as women can learn men's bad habits, men can learn women's good habits (to be more choosey / to approach sex with inner feeling / to see women as persons†† / etc). I suppose the best way to convey to women how men perceive of women who dress immodestly is to use extreme examples... like a beach blonde in a bikini attending a black tie event. To give you an extreme example women can relate to: a man sharp dressed to the 9's with expensive car, home, million dollar haircut, teeth that gleam, deep eyes, worth millions and is a Doctor or Lawyer, who has breeding and was raised with the best manners and is genteel, who is looking for a wife... Or maybe that's too dramatic an appeal to the female side of the equation... Just imagine the bouquet toss. Then you'll get some idea of what men go through when a woman shows skin. †† referring to that instant when skin is showing and a man's radar is on high alert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though Churches are steeped in human tradition, there is something to be gained through fellowship and / or corporate worship and Bible study. Tried the Lone Ranger approach for far too long and when you are one of God's sheep off by yourself that's when the wolves of even our own humanity our own flesh attacks us. Just concern for a sister in Christ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
