Re: Is this the scripture we teach to be separate?

I do believe in separation in manner and dress.

Quote:
I Timothy 2:9-10 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.
This scripture is speaking of "excess and pride" by using the terms "costly array". That is not goldly - pride cannot be godly.

Her shamefacedness comes from the meaning of "downcast eyes" and is speaking of bashfulness and modesty toward men.

It is also speaking of "good works" to follow or be coupled with our outward manner and dress.

So, yes, I do believe in separation in that sense.
