remove earrings

[tssp]

My personal feelings about the subject is this, I don't have a problem with women on the platform wearing a small pair of earrings. What I do have a problem with is women wearing big huge earrings that draw your attention or wearing two or three pair. To me that is not showing meekness or modesty. When I see men on the platform with earrings I feel a spirit or sensation of disgust because in my heart and mind they are wearing that which pertainith to a women.

Ya, I have no problem at all with women wearing earrings but there is just something that rubs me the wrong way when I see a dude with one. It's probably just me being an old foggy but I'll never wear one unless something extraordinary happens.

We,ve got these scriptures so

[KWSS1976]

We have these scriptures so I have no issues with it.

Genesis 24:22 And when the camels had had enough, the man took a gold nose-ring, half a shekel in weight, and two ornaments for her arms of ten shekels weight of gold; (BBE)

Genesis 24:30 And when he saw the nose-ring and the ornaments on his sister's hands, and when she gave him word of what the man had said to her, then he went out to the man who was waiting with the camels by the water-spring. (BBE)

Exodus 35:22 And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing-hearted, and brought nose-rings, and ear-rings, and signet-rings, and girdles, all jewels of gold; even every man that brought an offering of gold unto the LORD. (Root in JPS BBE DBY YLT)

Proverbs 25:12 Like a nose-ring of gold and an ornament of the best gold, is a wise man who says sharp words to an ear ready to give attention. (BBE)

Maybe you have one of the newer Bible translations that has this picture of Jesus in it?
