Oh reeeeeeally? Where does the literal text state this Mike:________? Oooops...it doesn't! And you're talking to ME about "adding to the Word"?????

(There you go with that juveniile nonsense of writing. Would you please quit and appear a little more scholarly for goodness' sake?)
Literal text?
It literally says beauty does not come from clothes. But that does not mean do not wear clothes!

but realize true beauty is beyond those things. That way a person does not trust in THOSE things to be beautiful, although they have an innocent part to play in one form of beauty. It's just that one trusts in spiritual things to truly be beautiful. It's like saying we should not trust in the arm of flesh, but we know that does not mean you cannot make a deal with someone and trust them to follow through. It speaks of ultimates.

Nice eisegesis Mike....problem is I Tim. 2 & I Ptr. 3 WILL NEVER say what you affirm above.

It is not eisegesis. IT says what I showed abode. You just refuse to consider anything different than your tradition.
