Your opinions and my opinions about modesty and other things may differ however I think that you can understand what I am saying. It is like wheels on a car. The wheels are not part of the car (cause they can be removed), but the car can not go anywhere without the wheels. Modesty is not part of holiness, but modesty helps holiness go.

Thats why I worded it "Modesty is
A result of holiness in ones life.
As DWW stated above somewhere, "you can have modesty without holiness, but can you have holiness without modesty?"
Show me someone that has true holiness, and I will show you someone that has modesty in all the their conduct and character. Because modesty is
A fruit of true holiness.
