What line?
It has shifted and does continue to shift, furthermore those who have any inclination are ridiculed for that stand.
If (libs) feel so liberated by there stand, they won't mind those of us who do think there is an issue with it.
Look, I don't start these threads, nor do I rarely post in them cuz they are unfruitful.
You do have a point in clothes, I have a problem with preachers & $1,000 suits.
I have only wore 3 brand new suits in my life & I never paid more than $150 for one.
Most of my wardrobe was given to me by others, & others I found good buys at Value Village! Some with the new sticker on it.
I don't know if posting these things are even worthwhile discussions.
I try to live as modestly as possible.
Makeup & Jewelry only serve to highlight self.

What about combing your hair? Tucking in your shirt? Wearing deodorant? Ironing your clothes? All of those things are done to make yourself more presentable to others. The fact is there is nothing in Scripture that hints at forbidding Jewelry when taken in context, so when preachers forbid it they are going beyond Scripture and adding to what God requires.
