Modest apparel draws attention to the countenance. Let your countenance testify to the joy of the Lord in your heart!

#7 seems deceptive? I don't think I would feel comfortable if I have to "hide" something? Shouldn't we celebrate if someone has been restored?
Now before anyone gets in a tizzy, I don't mean "flaunt" anything. I mean celebrate the fact they have been restored to the Lord NOT a set of man made rules.
#8: What about all of those gaudy watches or shiny/fancy belts etc...
#9: Does this include the "French" or "American" mani/pedi? I just went to Tx Women's Conf this last weekend and this was ALL OVER THE PLACE. do they not realize they have to use colored fingernail polish for these also? I mean if we are gonna get nit picky lets get nit picky!
And saddest of all is that there is little to nothing about demonstrations of the Fruit of the Spirit, Godly living and stellar character (to name a few). Shouldn't these things matter more?
