Is There A Difference In?

If a strict holiness woman was walking around in the 1950's, she'd look no different than most women of the time. Does that mean because she didn't stand out then, she wasn't saved? Modesty could also be defined as not standing out.

Yes we are to be separate and holy, but to say we should stand out solely based on our out-dated attire can be a slippery slope of ignoring the inner man while adorning the outward. You can dress modestly without looking like you stepped out of a time machine.

I guess men of the church today are not so "blessed" as women of the church, since men dress like the average man on the street and are not recognizably "Christian" by their dress. Women are the only ones who are able to live that silent witness. Maybe that's a good thing. Leave the preaching to the men, and let the women listen in silence.

Is that how you feel about our Ladies, that they go around in OUT-Dated Attire? Our ladies look very nice and up to date. We may be from the south, but we do not look like Old Time washer women, and this post is very offensive to those of us who still choose to wear skirts.

Do these people look as if they are dressing in Out Dated Attire, or do they look like happy Christians, who joy in serving God?
