I don't believe in nose rings, I think they are distracitng and unnecessary. It is obvious who belongs to who...;)

The scriptures I posted from 1 Peter says 'or the putting on of apparell', not 'the putting on of immodest apparell'. If we use that scripture to preach against jewelry, we have to also preach against 'the putting on of apparell'.

So when the Bible says that God will put earrings on His beloved, she won't have pierced ears?



Eze 16:12
And I put a jewel on thy forehead, and earrings in thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thine head.

I read that they were told to take off their strange God's and they began to pull off their earring and other jewelry.....:dunno

Can you post that please? I don't find that. The closest thing I find is this:



Ex 35:22 And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings, and rings, and tablets, all jewels of gold: and every man that offered offered an offering of gold unto the LORD.

And this:

Nu 31:50
We have therefore brought an oblation for the LORD, what every man hath gotten, of jewels of gold, chains, and bracelets, rings, earrings, and tablets, to make an atonement for our souls before the LORD.

Looks to me like they were giving an offering. They also gave up their rings, but we don't preach against rings.

Would God accept this sacrifice if he thought it was a sin to wear jewelry???

Gen 35:4 And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand, and all their earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.

There is one, I'll get more

If He thought is was a sin, He wouldn't post scripture about how He will adorn His bride with it.
