Customs are different all over the world. True holiness shouldn't be subject to the whims of a society's culture.
For instance, in the middle east, western clothing is not considered holy. How could we win someone to the Lord if we allowed to go there and witness to someone while at the same time offending them by the clothes we wear? What we think is modest and holy in our culture may not be in another culture. Is there a different holiness standard from culture to culture? How can it be true holiness if can vary?
