I've been on the sidelines most of this debate because I believe both sides are missing the point. The point isn't how an article of clothing will/won't make a woman Godly; the point is modesty. Again, I've seen numerous apostolic/Pentecostal women who wear skirts and dresses and are the most immodest and ungodly women I've met.

No, Deu 22:5 is not about pants. No, dresses/skirts do not a Godly woman make. And no, I don't know Paul's motivation for not mentioning that a woman should wear only one type of clothing, and neither do you.

That is what I implied. I cannot know Paul's motivation.

You can claim that the reason he did so was because there weren't any women wearing pants then, but that's just an assumption which could only be proven had you a time machine to go back to that time period.

I did not claim anything. Do you have a hard time comprehending what you read? I believe I suggested a possibility and ended the sentence with a question mark. Perhaps you should read it again.

I would mention the customs of the day versus the customs today, but I'm not going to argue about it. Nor will I argue the hypocrisy of applying only one part of the law while ignoring the other parts of the law, and doing so while claiming we are not under Moses' law.

Please demonstrate where I done anything you are accusing me of. If you can't then you are mistaken or just plain lying. But hey, I am glad you are not "arguing the issue" LOL!

I find it odd that the outspoken authority on holiness standards, DK Bernard, has responded to the question of UPCI women in India wearing pants as "it's their custom," while yet condemning American women for the same. Either it's okay or it's not. There cannot be exceptions for certain countries because of custom, especially when in the US it's been the custom since the mid-1900s.
You should take that up with D.K. Bernard not me.
