True, but the Bible does speak of destroying the temple (our bodies) There are things that most certainly do that...like heroin. Last I checked smelling good and taking baths was not detremental to ones life...unless a hairdryer is dropped in the tub.

When will people mature beyond the rulebook mentality? Seriously, the attitude is where it starts. Sin is first conceived before it is birthed. It is first internal, then external, and if let go has eternal consequence.

Motive and Attitude....

Yeah, the bible does speak about drugs... calls it sorcery (pharmakeia). May also ref to all the pills christians "pop." Glad I could school you. NEXT!

Falla,

I was making a comment in reference to Unitedpraise10's post concerning perfume and cologne and Truthseekers response. I have read alot of the posts and I know the more recent ones dealt with tuning the opposite sex on etc.

With that in mind, I believe the second half of my post is even that more pertenant to the discussion, no need for you to aggrivated with me.

It is still a heart issue, period. And motives for why a person "adorns" has more to do with it then weather perfume is more seductive then red lipstick or some scientific paper concerning the physical conditions in aroused women being linked to the makeup industry etc.

At the end of the day I do not need to assimilate everyone to my personal beliefs or preferences concerning the way I apply Biblical principles of Holiness. If I preach the truth in love ans allow God to do the work in a person's heart, then they will become what God wants them to be as they allow Him to lead them.

What the argument alot of times turns into is that there should be a uniform look to "our women" etc. What God may be doing in an individuals life may not be a cookie cutter look or the same way He is dealt with me.

At any rate...
