Sure they do, Rico, don't you remember what Jesus said to his disciples, "By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, by your outward appearance"? Seriously, as we all know, it says that "they have love one to another"
Oh, and there is that little scripture in
John 7:24 where Jesus says, "Judge not according to appearance.........." but we conveniently forget that one.
I would challenge anyone to show me a scripture in the Bible that links our inward holiness to our outward appearance.
I'm not talking about modesty vs. immodesty, I'm talking about the "standards" that we hold so dear.
