"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;"(1 Timothy 2:9). Christian dressing addressed here. |

Bottom line is be moderate in all you do, do not wear the attire of a harlot and do not make up like one, rather do everything for the glory of GOD and as you are led by the spirit. Do not implement what MEN including me tell you , follow the leading of the spirit. If your motives are pure and it results in modest dress which includes make-up etc, there is no problem at all. In 1 Timothy 2:9-15,Paul was making 3 points : 1. Looking good outside is not a true reflection of who you are , the same can be said for the opposite of this statement. I have met some people who do not put on make-up but they are 100% agents of Satan , I have also some people who put on light make up and dress decently but are the most loving , kind and wonderful people to be around , example my wife 2 . Do not be extravagant, wearing gold or diamond all over , having outlandish hairstyles to attract members of the opposite sex. 3. Let the real you be a godly conduct from a clean and pure heart. Modesty is thre key word. [img]http://1.bp..com/-GLIwNfvdDms/UExHeSNCmqI/AAAAAAAAAb8/N2Wd6_JKQYc/s1600/business-formal-dress-code-women-pant-suit.jpg[/img] 2 Likes |

SpicyMimi: I know too much of anything is bad, and ve also accepted that wearing of Trousers is an abomination to God. Having such a thought is an indication that your inner spirit does not concur with it...Just yesterday, my girl friend decided to do away with make up, trousers, attachments and the likes and honestly I am cool with it. When you add an attachment to your hair, you explicitly tell God (ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN VOICE) that he didn't create you completely, that he made a mistake or so stupid not to have given you that long hair that you so cherish so much when you see others, especially "The Whites"...Ladies just have to be very careful, do not allow things as little as make-up take you to hell..Looking good should be done with moderation in mind, We hear stories of those who through the spirit of God, were taken to HELL and they say so much about how fashion is misleading people...Why Would you want to add hair to your head, or have a tatoo, or do things that are not in line with God's words? Just live normal and make heaven, the Bible warns abot the accuser of the bretheren, (THE DEVIL), who continually looks for whom to devour...MY SINCERE ADVICE: DO AWAY WITH ALL OF THAT AND ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT TO HELP YOU, THE BOOK OF JAMES SAYS: "God is willing to give wisdom to anyone who desires and asks for it" and Be Warned: For there are ways that seemeth right unto a man but the end thereof is destruction - The Bible Remain Rapturable!!! 1 Like |

Guys, don't be deceived. What we call sexy these days are actually sinful/lustful. Be it tube gown, spaghetti straps, bikini, bum shorts, mini dresses and skirts. If you die wearing any of these, na hell you go enter! Also BAbes who take birth control pills. Some of those pills prevent implantaation of fertilised eggs. I want all of you to go through your lifestyle. Stop any sinful thing you r doing cos you can never tell when your time will come. Fornication is another common sin. Beware!! |

[size=16pt]Hey, Lady! The Bible did not say you should not enhance the beauty God has given you - it did not say so. Rather, to do things in moderation - it has a lot to do with the following: a)Make-ups - being heavily Made-up by some women group in the Church who thinks that being heavily made-up like a Theatre Actress would lure the suitors to their bedrooms - that is, Strange Fire in the Church. b)Idol worshipping - there are many ways we Christian idol worship yet, we claim we are no idol worshippers but we are. When, a woman could no longer leave her house without make-up on - people, I think there is problem here and that problem is, she is idol worshipping i.e. serving another god than the Almighty God. She is serving Make-up, her god! Thou shalt have no other gods before me. (Exodus Chpt.20 v.3) Making up has become an addiction to her thus, her god. So, search your hearts people. [/size] |

Re: What Does The Bible Say About Make-up? by alexleo(m): 9:28pm On Jun 17, 2013 |
@SpicyMimi, Let me start by giving you my brief testimony. I attend a church that preach against make up and wearing of trouser but i hated that message at my early age in the church. I loved to see women wear trouser and make up. Before i married i always said that my wife must not dress like my church people. I was in the church but was doing my own thing because i hate doing something i am not convinced about and i can be so stubborn to reject it. Whatever i am convinced about I can also be so stubborn to stand by it. I listened to sermons of other penticostal churches and how they justified wearing of make up and trouser and this continued to strengthen my likeness for it. When i married, i told my wife that she will be wearing trousers(modestly), make her hair(modestly) and all that for me and of course she agreed. One thing i discovered as time went on was that each time i took out time to go so deep in personal prayer, I lose interest in those things after that prayer. This happens effortlessly and i ll be very ok with the loss of interest and will continue feeling that way for days or weeks. Then as time goes on, distractions here and there, i begin to lose the spirit and when finally he seems to have gone out of me i see my self gradually getting interested in those things again until when next i ll be able to go into that deep prayer( i mean having a serious time with God and consecrating my life to him whole heartedly). Same thing was also happening to my wife at different times too. One day we just told ourselves the truth that if what we were doing was right why is it that whenever we go into serious prayer and consecration we lose interest in it. Having told ourselves the truth we decided to sustain our prayer habit but we didnt decide to quit on what she puts on rather as we continued to consecrate ourselves in prayer we lost the interest totally till today. My friends were surprised at this and thought it wont last but years have come and gone and we do not give a damn. Note that we are doing it whole heartedly, not out of compulsion or church doctrine as my erring friend frosbel wants you to believe. Infact i told my wife one of such days that if she wasnt convinced of stopping the thing she could continue until she is convinced and i saw that she was even more convinced than i thought after that discussion. Today, I see those things and i dont get impressed about them at all. When i see my erring friend frosbel talking about my church caging me i just laugh at him because my church people knows how stubborn i can be to any teaching am not convinced about. I wonder how they will laugh at frosbel's comment about me. I have my convictions about this and i really love and appreciate my wife's natural look more than all those nonsense things. What are they making up? God's deficiencies of course? Am not part it. God's work is perfect so no room for make up. Moreover, God hates when we use our body unnaturally. In Romans 1:26, 27. 26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. My sister, simply looking at this bible portion above you will know that turning our body against nature is not right in the sight of God. Our body remains the temple of the living God. This flesh is too demanding but we have to be careful not to yield to the evil desires of it. It is very easy for anybody to get scriptural quotations to back up his selfish desires but i tell you; what you should be more interested in is how God sees what you are doing. If God sees it wrongly and all the people here tells you that its right, at the end of the day you stand before God in shame. And you know what that means. Nobody here will answer for you on the judgment day. Dont be carried away with some people here who are quoting scriptures anyhow, satan also quoted scriptures when he tempted Jesus. Remember he always told Jesus- IT IS WRITTEN. pls be very wise. Go into deep consecration in prayer and God will guide you aright. The problem we have today in our Christianity is that we dont devote time to consecrate ourselves to God in serious personal prayers. Everybody is so busy with the things of life, including me, but i pray God to revive us. If we yield ourselves to him, the spirit of God will take absolute charge of us and guide us aright. AMEN. 5 Likes |

Dear FOSBEL If u want to look like a Jazebel u are free but desist from that. Adorn urself with beauty that with time will not fade. A Meek and a quite spirit. As a lady u talk too harsly, meaning ur salvation experience is stale. How can u call churches cults, who art thou to judge another man's servant. Throw away those kpangolo and water colour and look like Mary instead of Herod's wife. God bless u another falsely manufactured lie from 'HELL'. This is precisely why deeperlife and Apostolic faith churches are cults , they use the fear of HELL to threaten young and mostly gullible believers into conformance. what has the wearing of earrings or light make-up got to do with salvation ? Pharisaical religious fanatics, that's what you all are, and I say this out of love for your own good. [/quote] 1 Like |

I bought my pants in the women's section of all the stores I went to, do they still qualify as men's clothing? Besides, make-up is nothing more than color in the right places, it can't make you beautiful, it shows you how beautiful you really are. |
Re: What Does The Bible Say About Make-up? by Nobody: 10:09pm On Jun 17, 2013 |
There really isn't much to go on with regard to women wearing make-up. A lot depends on the motive behind the use of make-up. The principle would be the same as with clothing. Paul said, "I want women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly garments..." (1Tim2:9) If a woman simply wishes to look nice, and uses make-up in a modest way, I'm not aware of any Scripture that would speak against her doing so. It really comes down to a heart issue. The down side would be if a woman dressed in a way, and wore make-up in a way so as to allure men sexually. Then it reveals a sinful attitude. The Bible speaks of this in terms of harlotry. http://www.christianchallenge.org/ask/makeup.shtml 1 Like |
