Re: Modesty Myth

I wonder how many people would walk around a pack of pit bulls with a steak hanging from their necks. It takes two to tango. Women have what men want biologically. When it's presented it's hard not to look

Re: Modesty Myth

Question: can one person's eternal fate depend, in any way, on another person's actions? Not just in dressing modestly, but any actions.

if we are to work out our own salvation, I suppose we also work out our own damnation.the blame game doesn't work with God.

Is that a "no"?

I know someone who went through counseling for porn addiction. The counselor told him to make a list of everything that drew his eye going to and from work, i.e. billboards, etc. His purpose was to enlist him on helping to end this travesty in our society.

As much as we want to talk about a woman's involvement in a man's lust (which has some degree of merit), what about men who pass things to their friends via computer and cell phone?

I say that men are also at fault for encouraging and sometimes having the mindset that it's just boy stuff and no big deal. They could be ruining another man's life (a wife's life as well) on his struggle with porn. Men need to take some responsibility here, IMO.

Re: Modesty Myth

It may not work but others are responsible for the salvation of those other than themselves according to the word.....

Rom 10:13 For everyone, "whoever shall call on the name of the Lord will be saved."
Rom 10:14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without preaching?
Rom 10:15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace and bring glad tidings of good things!"

Good example! But, what do you mean by "It may not work"?

Edit: never mind. Think I got it. The preaching may not sink in, so the person doesn't get saved.

Sorry Timmy, I forgot to quote. He said the blame game does not work with God and I said it may not work but....
