Question Ladies: What Outward Standards are you Keeping?

1) what have you changed over the Years ? are you keeping the same standards you did when ou first was saved or have you let up ?

2) If you've eased up, what caused you to do so ?


HAIR
no cutting or trimming at all
just a little trim
full cut and shorn

MAKEUP
Totally plain,makeup free
just a little powder for the nose
painted jezebel

ATTIRE
pants? no pants ? slits ? no slits ?
sleeve lenght ?
nylons

JEWELRY
not a stitch
functional only (wedd ring, watch, hair clip)
no limits including body piercings (ears ,etc)


looking to hear from you !

Are these the only kinds of standards one should follow?

I follow a set of standards that I have set for me and my family, but they aren't anything like the above.

Standards in any person's life is a good thing.

so every household should disregard the churches guidelines, the pastors guidelines ? every man does that which is right in their own eyes ?

standards are the easy part, living like a christian is a whole nother ball game!

Thad, I added "outward" to your title since that is basically what you are asking.

I don't cut my in any way....but I fix it up everyday!!!

I don't wear pants. Nor do I wear slits. I do wear well fitted clothing so I don't look sloppy.... My sleeves go past my elbows, although I don't believe that if your elbow shows you are hellbound...

Yes, I wear nylons.........I really don't care what color they are....

I was going to say that I don't wear a stitch of jewelry, but since hair clips are functional then I guess that is what I wear. I used hair clips but they aren't gold. Neither do I wear studs or pearls in my hairclips that would be going against the whole principle of the non jewelry thing.

I have kept standards that my church preached because I was a member there. even though I didn't always agree.

Some things are not up to personal conviction because they are very clear in the Word of God.

and for the record.............. I would not change one thing about the standards I keep! I am one of those happy to apostolic and everything that comes with it!!!
I don't look to changing anytime soon....well, except my clothes. I don't like wearing the same ones over and over!!!
