I know a few men who would probably have reacted in a very public and physical way. If not right then during the message, then for sure after the message.

I know my husband would have blown it off.

"Honey!!! Did you hear what he said to me? Honey, hit that man!""

"Shut up and get in the car!"

Would they put that in the Herald?

Only if the piano player with uncut hair came over and laid her hair on him and he was healed of his injuries!!

ROFL!!!

As men, I can see where you would want to do the opposite of what CS did, however, it was the right thing to do.

Like CS said, in due time God will deal with that man.

On my thread you get a glimpse of our people from different areas of Brazil sometimes thousands of miles apart. I refuse to "Americanize" our people or brainwash them. I teach our ladies to be modest and that is what the Bible says. If they ask me if I have a preferance I tell them if not I don´t say anything. before judging me please look at our saints...pictures tell the story. I know a lot of preachers that spit it out in other people´s pulpits but it is to only impress someone else...Preach what you live and live what you preach. (that has always been my motto)
I have seen my pastor change on some things. He is a wise man. I respect his opinions. There is nothing wrong with all of a sudden you see you were wrong about something. We have all said stupid things...Once someone told me I should not go to the doctor...I said, preach it while you are young but when you get old you may have another message...some people preach themselves into hell.
I am not saying cover up and take up for wrong anyone that knows me knows that is not true.

Good post, again, Sister Alvear!!! Thanks for the input.

So the scripture is more about taking on the attitude of the same sex, isn't that what it's saying?

Not so much trying to look like a man, but actually act like a man.

It is deeper than that. One of the primary roots is "to breathe, to be, (in the sense of existence.)

That is huge and, IMO, solidifies "abomination" further in the passage.

Thanks for the re-direct, Renda!

I just remember reading something like this on another thread - don't know how to find it, but that's what they were saying too.

That's true, to be an abomination would be "to be".....how can that be argued? We certainly know just wearing pants in no way makes you "to be" a man.

It's almost ironic that what it really means is so polar opposite of making a woman a w*****.

Ignorance is bliss, Renda.

Very true. When we teach the principles of Christianity and our responsibility as women - modesty, behaviour, etc., it is more settling and you don't walk around confused.

Like I said, if we want to preach against pants - fine - preach against tight skirts too. I know that pants are generally tighter to begin with, but you can't make a doctrine out of Deut to support this issue. It's not right and frankly, modesty just covers it - handily!
