Breaking News : No More Trousers For Redeemed Ladies, Adeboye Orders

latifa am not going to start trading words with you. since you claimed to know the bible and when xtianity started, all i want is for you to enlighten us more . elenu jebejebe. and in case you don't know, my name signifies one of GOD's commandement, remember HE said we should multiply and replenish.

so is trouser included in the skimpys you are talking about?

This issue of female wearing trousers was no issue like 20 yrs ago, it was just normal and right for female not to wear trousers, even non-christians knew it was not proper. Why does it now become an issue with a lot of people, Christians and even pastors inclusive saying that female wearing trousers does not matter? I only hope this is not one of the fulfilment of the scripture:

Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; (1 Timothy 4:1 KJV)  

Beware! What you put on as christians matters dont be deceived, scripture even spoke about harlot attire i.e. there are things you wear that made you pass for an harlot. Let me ask you this, if what the poster of this topic wrote is anything to believe, how will you feel as a christian if you are embarrased on the street of Lagos just for wearing trousers? Think about it for a while,

You can let that trousers go atleast for the sake of the ripple it is creating, there are nice skirts in town that will reflect your beauty perfectly without raising any question on your morals.

Love you all

wearing trousers to church is not good, simple and short. give ceaser what is ceaser and to GOD what is GOD. At least let us use the church environment to respect GOD. I wear trouser a lot but i dont surport the issue of wearing it church.

I was even coming to that.

If something does not fit well into the Church 'environment', how does it then fit well outside that environment?

I don't see the dress-sense in the WORD applying only to when we 'go to' Church on special days. Rather, it is a matter of one's lifestyle.

Wherever and whenever, your dress-code and dress-sense speak volumes about the person you really are in heart.

  S-i-s-t-e-r  Replenish!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i dont think anybody should be able to tell another human being what to wear or what not to wear, except if the other person has signed away his/her rights to this person. For example school students and prisoner dont have a right to say what they want when it comes to what they should wear, and i believe the society will agree that this is acceptable. Also if you go to a place(town, city, country) that believes in a certain tradition about dressing and it is a law laid down, then you dont have a choice but to act like the romans because you are in Rome.

I wonder if RCCG falls into this category of places? Do people now worship God under duress of conditions and rules?
Although I am a Christian, I find that christianity as we practice it, is one of the most limiting religions in the world. It is also a lazy man's religion. why do the officials at RCCG not weed out the bad eggs in the basket? why break the camel's back completely, just to find a little flea on its back skin?

Anyway, i think the authorities who make laws about women's clothing without putting in place measures to protect women's human rights are totally wrong. Personally I believe women should be encouraged to learn martial arts, because of the men who will want to take advantage of these foolish and not-well-thought out laws to abuse and even rape women. I say this also because if any woman's human right is abused because of these laws, the men making the laws will say "well, she deserved it!"

Even at that, skirts and other female attires don't come cheap in the market.

I haven't come across any verse in the Bible that persuades us that trousers were designed for men!

hi,i strongly believe that a genuine xtian should know what is right to put on.i dont personally believe in hypocrisy-not wearing in church but wearing it elsewhere.Though is a good measure of curbing the bad ones but what they really need is a renewal of mind.LETS STOP DECIEVING OURSELVES!

ehn b-r-o-t-h-e-r boondoggle, you called my name

i neva said it was bad to wear it to church, but since the church doesn’t permit, il have to obey abi?

That's precisely what I'm saying - and I quoted the part where you said so earlier. If it's not right to wear to church, it's not right to wear anywhere else. The Church today needs to rediscover itself instead of making endless rules to plaster over real issues.

The real issue here is not that the church doesn't permit it - afterall, if the same people who don't permit me come to my office and see me in what they don't 'permit', what moral jurisdiction would they have to dictate my office dress-sense?

I'm not rebelling against Church authority. I'm all up for moral decency - and that's what I see in the WORD. Whether it's wrapper, trousers, skirts, etc - let's just observe the principles offered in the WORD, rather than let some people push their own discomforts on others.

Women don't wear the same type of pants as men.

Well I think its only conviction that may stop a lady from dressing provocatively with or without trousers. Come to think of it, were there trousers in the days of Delilah when she attracted Samson to herself?

But if we ban trousers, what of "nipple and cleavage revealing blouses and shirts'??

God help us to tackle the ROOT of a problem and not the substance it brings!

Yes it's your fault. Men are just being hypocrytical, and blaming women for issues they themselves have.

Adeboye should stop behaving like an Imam in a hardcore sharia country, if he has an issue with how women dress, he should beg them, and not demand.

u are right joooooo, but i guess we must make the G.O hear all of our suggested if it will be neccessary.

let the post keep coming.
