Women;s PJ's

Digging4Truth · #1 01-05-2009, 06:28 AM

Commonsense just posted a thread on pj's and I got to thinking and thought I would start this thread.

It would seem that if ones reason for believing that women should not wear pants pivots ons Deu 22:5 then pajama pant are still wrong... hands down.

That thought would necessitate this thought. If one see no problem with a woman weaing pajama pants in her home then they, clearly, do not base their reasoning on on Deu 22:5.

This, to me, would appear to be givens.

That being a given... what scriptures do people base their prohibition of wearing pants on?

I just think it's entertaining that we have had so many discussions on women wearing pajama pants. Does anyone thing God cares at all about what I wear in bed?

And I don't think pants are wrong so obviously I think pajama pants are okay.

My wifey wear PJ pants at home but only skirts in public. You wear clothes for people not God.

This is more about the inconsistency of claiming one believes wearing pants is wrong because of Deu 22:5 and then turning around and seeing nothing wrong with Pajama pants.

If this scripture applies then it applies inside the house and out.

The scripture leaves no hedge room.

If one sees no problem with it then they need to leave Deu 22:5 out of their repertoire.

The thread is about consistency... or the lack of...

Is any of the reasoning based on Deu 22:5?

not necessarily, I've been taught the status qou on that scripture. Not sure it means what we say it is or should it just apply to lower half of the body. Some have declared it means mens battle gear as in women shouldn't war.

One thing I do know is we have picked that scripture out aand preach it with passion while negating other scriptures in deut, even many on tithes.

I do believe there's men clothing for gender distinction and vice versa.

I, personally, don't see the application of Deu 22:5 being what people have touted it as.

My wife & daughters wear skirts outside the home and wear PJ's at the house. If I believed that Deu 22:5 was saying what we are told it says then this would not be the case.

Our reasoning revolves around a desire for modesty.

The doctrine is based solely on a mis interpretaiton of dt 22:5

There is no other place in the bible that you could even remotely come up with a scripture that bolsters to the no pants doctrine of "legalistic man made doctrines folks"

I refuse to call them "holiness folks"
