And I didn't use the verse in Deuteronomy. I don't use it. It is intermingled with a bunch of other scriptures that we completely ignore and I find that inconsistent and frivolous to do so.
What I am talking about isn't pants or short sleeves. What I'm talking about is an inward spirit by which we choose our clothing. All of us. We can put on a dress that goes to the floor with sleeves to the fingernails and a neckline to the earlobes...
But we often still completely miss the point these days. I saw a picture on facebook today of a pentecostal girl. LIterlally... neckline to the earlobes... But gold pieces in her hair (not real gold i am sure)... very fancy stylings, her hair was dolled up with every conceivable curl & crimp...And yet most would say it was holy because it is a dress etc. Who adorns themselves more than pentecostals when it comes to hair? Very few.

I'm not trying to put dress rules on people. I'm saying that those who tout the dress rules the most seem to be missing the point entirely IMO.

Would you say that there is a limit to how a Pentecostal girl can style her hair? Or what about wearing stylish clothing? I want an answer, because I sorta want to vent about something.
