You are still missing the point? You're argument goes "She's a whore, she wears jewelry, therefore Jewelry is wrong" essentially. Well if that is true then logically wearing purple and scarlet is wrong too because she ALSO wore that

also, what if she wore shoes? does that make shoes wrong?
what if she wore underwear? does that make underwear wrong?
Or, since those two things are not mentioned, are they irrelevant?

That's like preachers quoting about Jezebel styling her hair and painting her face and preaching against face painting but not against combing hair.

I think all preachers should preach against a woman styling her hair with a painted face.

Right. Keep right on preaching that irrevelant stuff while the world around you goes to hell. Good grief.

Now that's putting it as plainly and dutifully as possible.

Thank you for saying it. I hope it gets said often in these kind of topics.

Looks to me like it is wrong to wear jewelry whether she is wearing scarlett, purple, underwear,shoes, or anything else.

1Pe 3:3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

1Ti 2:9 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;

I heard one person say that if we preach against Jezebels make-up then we have to preach against looking out a window since she did that also.

Goes to show how low somebody will go to justify their carnality.

I said: Good point, you shouldn't look out a window with jewelry on.

No it goes to show you how bad your argument is.

if Jewelry is wrong, it's wrong because the bible says so, not because the GWOB is wearing jewelry.

Israel is also depicted as wearing jewelry given to her by God.

The Bride of adorned with Jewelry too.

[Praxeas]

Some more scripture

Isa 61:9 Their descendants will be known among the nations, their offspring among the peoples. All who see them will recognize that the Lord has blessed them."
Isa 61:10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; I will be happy because of my God. For he clothes me in garments of deliverance; he puts on me a robe symbolizing vindication. I look like a bridegroom when he wears a turban as a priest would; I look like a bride when she puts on her jewelry.

Jewelry was never evil in the bible. It's not the exclusive domain of harlots

You're argument is based on this verse in Revelation, that's it's wrong because she is the Whore and according to your argument the bride does NOT wear jewelry.

But the flaw in your argument is that IF it's wrong to wear jewelry merely because the whore is wearing it then IF that were true logically then so to are purple and scarlet.

The other flaw is that the bride is adorned with jewelry too
