Shall I list for you all your posts on this thread where you have "talked about other posters?"

In the book of Romans, Paul reveals the sinful nature and lawlessness of mankind, stating how God was pouring out His wrath upon those who were rejecting His laws. Because they had turned away from God's instruction and guidance, He gave them over to their sinful natures. "They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them" (Romans 1:29b-32). We see from this passage how serious the sin of gossip is and that it characterizes those who are under God’s wrath.

Go back and show us the posts of scripture you shared about cosmetics.

When there is gossip, the same people show up. Circle the wagons.

My mother died recently and never used cosmetics. At 95 her skin was clear and great. She also never gossipped. Ever. She won her youing brothers to the LORD and they won the older brothers. and the parents. Both were the beginnings of missions. Taking the gospel to people that are poor seems to make sense. The homes i go into to can't buy make up on food stamps.
They also don't feel rejected coming to a church without bling bling and people trying to look prosperous.
