10 Reasons why CHRISTIAN MEN should REJECT the EVIL PRACTICE of WEARING A NECKTIE:

1 As a piece of clothing a necktie is SUPERFLUOUS. It serves NO FUNCTION BUT ORNAMENTATION. This makes it by definition IMMODEST and OSTENTATIOUS, appealing to the LUST OF THE EYES and PRIDE OF LIFE! (1 John 2:15)

2 As such, a necktie is nothing more than SILK JEWELRY!

3 Neckties are often made in BRIGHT COLORS (like RED, PURPLE and even PINK) and BOLD, PATTERNS. Again, this serves no purpose but to DRAW ATTENTION to the FLESH!

4 Most neckties are made of SILK. We all know what silk is used for: WOMEN’S UNDERWEAR! This makes wearing a necktie a VILE ABOMINATION according to DEUTERONOMY 22:5!

5 Furthermore, many of the patterns on neckties are SIMILAR or IDENTICAL TO those on WOMEN’S DRESSES (i.e., PAISLEY or even FLOWERS). ABOMINATION!

6 Many designers of neckties are KNOWN HOMOSEXUALS! Why would a GODLY MAN want something HANGING AROUND HIS NECK that is the personal expression of the PERVERTED HEART of a SODOMITE?

7 Whatever Lot had in Sodom, HE LEFT IN SODOM. Shouldn’t you leave this FLIMSY FLAG OF SODOM behind as well?

(NOTE: THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS GRAPHIC LANGUAGE. PLEASE DON’T ALLOW WOMEN TO READ ANY FARTHER)

8 A long necktie tied around a man’s neck is itself a PHALLIC SYMBOL (in the shape of the MALE SEX ORGAN). What messages are conveyed to the subconscious mind of those around you as you PARADE before them wearing this SYMBOL of LASCIVIOUSNESS?

9 Satan is often depicted with PHALLIC SYMBOLS. This only further DEMONSTRATES how EVIL AND DEMONIC this THING is, and how easy it is for the DEVIL to SNEAK IN to our BEDROOMS through the CLOTHING hanging in our CLOSETS!

10 ALMOST ALL NECKTIES ARE POINTED AT THE BOTTOM, the part that reaches TO OR BELOW THE BELT. WHY IS IT POINTED? WHAT IS IT POINTING TO?

DEAR SAINT OF GOD, HOW CAN WE CHRISTIANS TOLERATE OUR PREACHERS, SINGERS, AND SUPPOSED LEADERS PARADING ACROSS OUR PLATFORMS ADVERTISING ON THEIR BELLIES EVERY SIN OF UNCLEANNESS AND PERVERSION THERE IS? WE MUST PUT A STOP TO IT! PRINT THIS MESSAGE AND SHOW IT TO YOUR PASTOR. TELL HIM YOU MUST WITHHOLD YOUR TITHE AS LONG AS HE INSISTS ON SPENDING IT ON SUCH ABOMINATIONS! GOD HATES SIN! HIS JUDGMENT IS COMING TO THE MEN OF SODOM

The man who sent it to me is not a senior pastor, he is a leader/pastor of a small group in an Apostolic church in a nearby city.

Also, it is TIC

He does not really believe that way.


He mentioned it to me on the phone and I asked him to email it to me so I could post it here.

I believed it. Sorry, I've heard so much looniness that when I hear or read something so crazy from OP's my first inclination is to believe it rather than reject it.

Well, it was so believable as good "holiness" or "standards" preaching that I just HAD to post it.
