Is anything less than this immodest?   If not, why not?

perhaps true Christians spend more time shopping for clothes  esp. in the summer

since they have to be pickier.

You all have a strange way of deciding who is and who is not a Christian. :blink:

True Christian don't care what he wear

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

Personally, the illustration does not offend me. I see it as one that is making a valid point. 

I haven't seen the other, older threads on dressing modestly, but my contribution to this, is to say that I agree, we must dress modestly. I am offended by the fact that so many people today seem to want to wear very little in the public eye. 

Forget going out much at all in the summer, but especially to the water parks, beaches or public swimming pools, places where the mindset seems to be (wearing less) is best. It's vulgar.

I must be weird. I never really notice these things. All I am worried about is if I look fat in my swim suite.  :ph34r:

That is a statement of judgment. As you have no way of knowing that all fashion designers are not Christians and are  all unsaved. 

Well agreed. It should be alot are unsaved. but regardless, clothes nowadays are mostly NOT designed with glorifying God but  to  display thr body . But I've seen both men and women will argue that theres no problem with certain things..

I do object to this thread.  Perhaps I am a prude, but I see no good value in drawing a vulgar depiction for the purpose of decrying vulgarity. To me it seems an exercise that could and should be avoided.

Its not vulgar. Theres nothing on display, but people actualy wearing said thing will. My point isto show how certain things are  specifically designed to arouse

Maybe we should just stop worry about what other people wear or what it is they say about what they are wearing. You can't expect non-Christians to follow our standers. As long as we ourselves are dressed in a modest manner. Anyway that is how I live my life. I just say "nope, I am not wearing that." Then I move on.

You need to calm down and let God take care of these things. I don't see why what someone else is wearing is such an issue. Just as long as you yourself feel you are dressed in a modest way, that really should be what all of us are concern about. Is our own self. ( I think I said that already, yes I did) Other wise we are going to go insane being all up in arms about the people around us not following our stander of modesty.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
