Great points!!

My mother wore a wedding band until 1972 or so when the popular teaching began at that time against jewelry of any kind, including wedding bands. She had to put her ring in the offering plate. That was a toughie for her.

I wonder what would've happened if the "rapture" had taken place before that offering plate was passed.... LOL!
