Looks to me like it is wrong to wear jewelry whether she is wearing scarlett, purple, underwear,shoes, or anything else.

1Pe 3:3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

1Ti 2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

Really? I bet nearly ever one else here understands the point I just made, but you don't? Really?

I had to spell out the point about the whore wearing not just jewelry but purple and scarlet because you didn't understand and now I have to spell this out?

Very well...uh the Bride is decked with jewelry too. There, is that clear enough?

I heard one person say that if we preach against Jezebels make-up then we have to preach against looking out a window since she did that also.

Goes to show how low somebody will go to justify their carnality.

I said: Good point, you shouldn't look out a window with jewelry on.

You're argument is based on this verse in Revelation, that's it's wrong because she is the Whore and according to your argument the bride does NOT wear jewelry.

But the flaw in your argument is that IF it's wrong to wear jewelry merely because the whore is wearing it then IF that were true logically then so to are purple and scarlet.

The other flaw is that the bride is adorned with jewelry too

The Bride in Revelation 19 has Jewelry on?

You are comparing God's adornment of a city with a woman's adornment of herself. wow.

That city is the BRIDE. Remember YOU are the one that introduced the BRIDE and compared the BRIDE (the City) to the Whore. ROFL. Good grief

Rev 21:2 And I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of Heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her Husband.

Rev 21:9 And one of the seven angels who had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues came to me and talked with me, saying, Come here, I will show you the bride, the Lamb's wife.
Rev 21:10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of Heaven from God,

No it goes to show you how bad your argument is.

if Jewelry is wrong, it's wrong because the bible says so, not because the GWOB is wearing jewelry.

Israel is also depicted as wearing jewelry given to her by God.

The Bride of adorned with Jewelry too.

Some more scripture

Isa 61:9 Their descendants will be known among the nations, their offspring among the peoples. All who see them will recognize that the Lord has blessed them."
Isa 61:10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; I will be happy because of my God. For he clothes me in garments of deliverance; he puts on me a robe symbolizing vindication. I look like a bridegroom when he wears a turban as a priest would; I look like a bride when she puts on her jewelry.

Jewelry was never evil in the bible. It's not the exclusive domain of harlots
