The Harmful Effect Of Immodesty Dressing In The Church
Over the years we have endeavor to teaches and show more concern pertaining modesty dressing in life of Christian. Dressing modesty is an epitome of godliness while acknowledging yourself as a genuine child of God.
Today, majority behold Christianity as merely going to church without
considering the basic spiritual works and sacrifice which ought to be
implemented while attaining unto perfection.
Today, you hardly identify a Christian woman or distinguished
her as a born again believer from the world. There is not different
between the church and the world. There is no remarkable different to distinguished between Deborah and Delilah. They
both look replica in our societies today. However, in our society when
you behold a nurse, a doctor, a lawyer, an engineered, a pilot, a navy,
an army or a police officer, you can easily identified them by what they
wore on their body.
Likewise also, when you behold a prostitute you can easily foretells, that such person is a prostitute. How? Definitely by how she dressed or portrayed herself but how can you identifies a genuine Christian woman today in our societies?
THE HARMFUL EFFECT OF IMMODEST DRESSING
Sometimes ago, I heard a sad story of beloved sister who accepted Jesus Christ newly. She was so overwhelmed with the zeal in serving God and evangelizing the gospel.
But unfortunately, she found herself in wrong church where the truth
was concealed from her. Though, she was convicted of the Holy Ghost unto
acceptance of Christ but was not totally converted.
ALSO READ; Near But Far Away From The Kingdom.
The righteous truth that enhances complete salvation was held
back from her because there is different between convict and conversion.
She was convicted of accepting Christ but wasn’t informed about how to
ensure complete salvation of her soul. However, few days later she makes
an attempt in quest of spreading the gospel and while she was preaching
on road side junction, she beholds her former school course mate. At
the sight of her friend, she quickly embraced her and after pleasantries
she beckoned her friend to accept Jesus Christ into her life and
forsakes worldliness.
To her greatest shock her friend burst into laughter. She was seriously making mockery of our beloved sister. She said, “You mean you are now born again?
Yes I am and also want you to repent and accept Jesus into your life
and witness the joy I am feeling right now. She continues, “You
Born again…! Wonder shall never cease in this world…! Haaa, Esther, you
mean you are born again and you look like this…! I mean, just take a
look at you. You are preaching to me about Jesus Christ.
Once again she burst into laughter. But out of curiosity our beloved sister inquired what the problem. She replied; “Can’t
you behold that we are resemblance. You wore trouser I also wear
trouser. You wear attachment I also have mine. You applied makes-up and
painting and you can also see it on my face. Look at your fingers, you
fixed extra nails and I also have mine. You even wore earrings and
necklace and I also have mine with me, so tell me, my friend what is the
different between you and me?
That was how our beloved sister went home sorrowfully and
allowed the precious soul to escape from her. She was battered and
shattered both emotionally and spiritually because of deceptive doctrine
on women modesty dressing. She was meant to understand that God is only after her heart and not much concern about her physically appearing.
But am wondering, if God was only after her heart, then why can’t she
convince her sinful friend to believe such dogma teaching from the pit
of Hell?
Sincerely, she can’t because her friend has previously
encountered several godly sisters who dressed in modesty. She knew there
must be physical differentiation between a genuine born again Christian
and unbelieving believer that merely goes to church. Its unfortunate
that today “Born Again” has become a general language for everyone that goes to church. Today, if you often go to church, you have automatically become Born Again.
That is wrong perception because born again simply
means renewing or transforming of your inward-mindset into godliness
which is automatically manifest outwardly by God’s grace through Jesus
Christ. If you mindset still linger into worldliness,
definitely your outward appearance will attest unto it. If as a
Christian woman and your mind still cumbered with immodesty attires and
kept lusting after immoral and seductive dressing, jewelries, makes-ups
and elaborate hair styles whenever you behold those that wore them.
Certainly, you wouldn’t felt comfortable in such state.
In short run, you will definitely behold yourself wearing them
because it’s first originated from your heart. Matthew 15;18-19 "But
those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart;
and they defile the man. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts,
murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness,
blasphemies" Hence, if God is only after the heart, then where does all
those immoral lustfulness propel from?
This signifies that the manifestation of your inward thoughts is
the source of your outward appearance. If you don’t possess the mindset
of lusting after that immodesty dressing, definitely you wouldn’t
behold them on your body. Lust simply means the strong desire
for something. The desire to make use of something which contradicts the
will of God, something you can’t do without…!
Where does all this fact lead us? This simply means, as a Christian woman still indulging into immodesty dressing; you are presently in sinful bondage of LUST. Moreover,
you certainly knew where it will lead after death if you refuse to
repent and cast off those disgusting and ungodly inward mindset--burn
off those immodesty dressing and remain naturally endowed. Psalm 139;14
"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous
are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well"
Nevertheless, I would also like to lay emphasizes on reason why
God is much more concern about your outward lifestyles as a Christian
because he knew that your outward appearance is the product of your
inward mindset. Whatever occupied or exposed to your heart or mind shall be the product and manifestation of your physical characters.
THE EFFECT OF UNGODLY MINDSET
Recently, I counseled a young teenage boy who was addicted into masturbation as a result of his exposure into pornography cause by his father. I
was perturbed how his father exposed such a young boy into sexual
immoralities of pornography? He later confessed that his father has
numerous porn video clips stored in his mobile phone. He often has free
access to those immoral video files whenever his father drops off his
mobile phone.
Pathetically, that was how he becomes exposed into the world of
sexual immoralities and presently struggling on how to overcome 7 years
addicted life of masturbation. This horrible mess was enacted due to
nonchalant attitude of the parent while nurturing their child. Proverb
22;6 “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he
will not depart from it" As a parent, God has graciously blessed you
with those children and whatever careless or nonchalant attitude you
portrayed against them, you will definitely have your reward in
eternity.
How can you trained-up your child in godliness manner while you
mindset is decayed with ungodliness and lustfulness? That is another
fact of inward manifestation. However, there was another young boy who
is presently struggling to overcome masturbation addiction;
he vividly confessed that he can’t do without masturbating himself. One
thing that struck me in his confession was when he said, “My mum caused all this for me” I mean, how is that possible?
He continues, I started masturbation since when i was 4 years
old. My mum has always been dressing up naked before me; I am used to
seeing her nakedness. I am not moved to have sex with her but I always
long to see mature ladies naked just the way I always see my mum
dressing up naked before me. I still remember seeing her nakedness
regularly till I was 8 years and my dad do shout on her, “send this boy out before you dress”
But my mum would always reply by saying “will my son sleep with me?” My dad will retorted “Stop planting evil thought in his heart”
Anytime I see my mum's naked body, I long to see ladies' naked body. I
then went into fornication at age 10 and till now I am not free from
fornication, heavy pornography and masturbation.
From above facts, we can behold the outward manifestation of
sexual immoralities in the life of those teenagers as result of
ungodliness been propelled into their heart. I would also like to send a
warning message to every parent who is guilt of above two pathetic
stories of those teenagers. If you are dressing up before your 2 years
son/daughter and you say he/she doesn't know anything yet, you are
planting an immoral seed into such heart and shortly, you will behold
its outward manifestation.
Moreover, in some case a couple’s will confessed that they used
to have sexual relationship in same room with their 2 years old child,
they felt such child can’t understand. You are also planting an evil
seed and abnormal sexual fantasies and urge in that heart and very soon
it will germinate. How will you destroy your own children with your own
carelessness?
Please don't let your children see your nakedness. Don't make
love in the presence of your child no matter the age. The sexual scene
sticks to their memory and they may want to explore and experiment what
they are seeing. Stop making free home-made “sex clips or video” for your children to be watching.
Please, while sitting down ensure you sit properly and dress modesty as a mother. Stop sitting as if you are in hospital labor room or about to deliver. Stop parting your legs for your son to see your inner tight and pant is horribly wicked. Please
as a father; don't wear ordinary boxer or short knickers at home that
cause your manhood to dangling before your teenage daughter. There are
some certain immoral dresses you shouldn’t wear while at home because
that little child learnt actively.
Don't say because you want to enjoy your freedom in your house.
It’s not just your house alone but also family house. What about the
mother wearing ordinary bra around the house in the presence of their
son and also allowing their daughters to dressed seductively at home
before their son? Yes, he might not lust after you or his sister
but you might be messing up and increasing his curiosity to see the
breasts of ladies out there and exposing him to wide-range of sexual
perverse.
This fact portrayed that an outward appearance is the seed of
inwardness. Therefore, serving God is basically known and identifies
meanly by your physical dealing. Whatever propel into the mind shall
manifest outwardly.
HARMFUL EFFECT OF NAKEDNESS IN THE CHURCH
The nakedness of women in God's sight refers to any Christian
woman exposing her legs, things, breast/cleavage and dressing in tightly
dresses, trouser which shows the curves, shape, contours, hips and the
anatomy of the body. The evil nature in our present world has deceived
many women of this generation that exposing their thighs, shape of the
hips and breasts in public is fashionable and attractive before men.
The devil and his wicked demons are mocking and laughing at such
ladies, because they know that if they die in that state, they will go
straight to Hell fire. They are also causing many men to commit adultery
and fornication in their hearts by lusting after these strange women in
nakedness which is sinful before God.
The heart of a man doesn't stop a naked woman from moving her
feet, but he is tempted and compelled to lust after such nakedness. A
godly woman understands this truth and she is VERY CAREFUL not to arouse
the opposite sex with her body language and that is reason way she
always loves to dress modestly.
GOD HATRED TOWARD NAKEDNESS IN THE CHURCH
It’s time for Christian women to awake unto modesty dressing and
make vow with their own body, to live for God and present their body as
living sacrifice unto the Lord in purity. The devil has influenced and
lowered many women bodies into his instrument of LUST. God wants all
women to turn away from nakedness, nudity, immoral dressing and
seductive dressing.
We are living in a wicked world where people call evil good. They think it is perfectly acceptable for women to wear trousers
(U.S--pants), tight dress, half-dresses, mini-skirts and expose their
breasts, body shape, thighs and legs seductively in a sensual manner. I
see women in church, street, offices and media exposing their legs,
thighs, curves and breasts to be praised.
This is called NAKEDNESS before the sight of
God. It’s sinful for a woman to dress immodesty, or exposed her vital
body part such as thigh or laps, arm-pit, waist or cleavage because
woman body is very SEDUCTIVE and SENSITIVE to a man.
Christian women and ladies ought to wear skirts that go beyond their knees and loosen.
Their material of dressing shouldn’t be transparent. Many Christian
women wear thin clothing that reveals their inner body skeleton figures
and also revealing their inner pant-line and shapes.
HOW YOU DRESS IS HOW YOU ARE ADDRESSED IN PUBLIC
The way you dress affects the way you feel. If you dress like a whore, that is how you are going to feel about yourself. You can't deny that not unless Satan has killed your "Consciousness".
The way you dress speaks volume about you. Exodus 23;2 Thou shalt not
follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to
decline after many to wrest judgment" Don't follow the crowd, because
the crowd is always wrong.
Perhaps, if they are wrong are you willing to follow them into
an eternal damnation of Hell? Properly, you assumed that God wouldn’t
destroy those found guilty of immodesty dressing because they are
numerous. Anyway, this isn’t the first time he is going to enact such
punishment upon humanity. Psalm 9;17 The wicked shall be turned into
hell, and all the nations that forget God”
He first unleashed his anger upon the generation of Noah and the nation of Sodomite and this time around, his judgment upon humanity is going to be terrible because
and it's either you behold yourself Heaven or Hell, the choice is yours
“It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God"
Hebrew 10;31, Because For our God is a consuming fire" Hebrew 12;29“
THE SIGN OF IMMODESTY DRESSING IN THE CHURCH
- A woman showing her thighs or exposing her laps in the church or public, it’s sinful and pure wickedness and nakedness before God.
- A man sagging his trouser or showing off his inner wear, its seductive, nakedness and sinful before God.
- As a woman if you have to cover your knee or breast with handkerchief while sitting in the church or in Public, that is nakedness and sinful.
- As a man if the hair on your chest is seen by women, it's nakedness and sinful because it amount seduction.
- As a woman if your armpit is exposed when you dressed or you wear transparent clothes, its nakedness and sinful because women body are always seductive.
- As a woman if your waist is exposed, it nakedness and sinful.
- As woman if you put on trousers, you are totally naked because it’s abominable before God.
THE DANGER OF DRESSING IMMODESTY
- Dressing immodesty promotes lustfulness and every form of immorality imaginable.
- Dressing immodesty pollutes the mind of the weak.
- Dressing immodesty exposed the women into various spiritual attacks of marine spirits, sexual intercourse, swimming and eating in the dream because it attract spiritual husband, which always poses attack toward their marital breakthrough and barrenness.
- Dressing immodesty lowers the dignity of a woman because a sensible mother wouldn’t condone his son to marry a prostitute.
- Dressing immodesty exposed a woman to the great mother of harlotry--the Queen of the Coast.
Genesis 3;7 & 21 And the eyes of them both were opened, and
they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and
made themselves aprons. 21, Unto Adam also and to his
wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them" In Garden
of Eden, God gave Adam and Eve clothes. All the saints and angels in
heaven are fully covered with their modest garment while those in Hell
are totally naked to an everlasting shamefulness.
Therefore, don't live a naked life of immodesty dressing; stop
exposing your thighs, breasts and shape of your body. Your body is the
temple of the Holy Ghost and ought to be fully covered. Please let your
outward body presentation testifies about your inward mindset. Let your
outward appearance testifies about the glory of God and not to be used
in exaltation and propagation of the kingdom of darkness.
