then can u please interprete the bible passage in the topic for me?

ihatesycophant:


In your insinuation but good to wear it outside the church, Hypocritical living. The first question we need to ask ourselves is who made trousers to be wholly for men and skirt for women. There's no portion of the Bible that describe or differentiate that. What that Bible said, is if a man use anything, it's not expected of a woman to use it.
In English language context, even pant and tight are examples of trousers. That's why they call them Shorts.

For the fact that majority of people decide to do something,doesn't make it right, and some of your point are out of place.
I can't categorically tell you that its a sin or not,but I will give you my opine on this matter.

Has a christian, there should be doctrine of seperation from the world which ought to reflect modesty.

I bible says. Do not equally yoke theirself with unbelievers.
Trousers is men clothing which has been on for years,until 100yrs ago. Actresses started wearing a kind of men suit and it became a norm. Now has a christain wearing trouser, what's the diff btw you and the unbelievers who started the fashion trend.

On the flipside: let's consider some critical things a christian has to abide by.

1. Modesty - does this clothing cover me adequately? I Tim. 2:9

2. Not worldly - does this clothing reflect the current trends? I John 2:15

3. Difference - does this clothing easily show there's a difference between me and the opposite gender? Deut. 22:5

4. Inoffensive - does this clothing offend a brother or sister in Christ? As a woman, will this cause my brother to stumble or think lustfully about me? Rom 14:7-8,12-13 I Cor. 10:23; 8:13
 
5. Glorifies God - does this clothing glorify God, or does it call attention to me and glorify me? I Cor. 10:3


NOTE: when I say skirt. I mean modest skirts and not those mini-skirt _whore wear.

I am not that too much of a church person,but I try to live by certain principle has a christian. Not that I like it,but bcs I don't want to hear story that touch on the last day. One has to sacrifice certain earthly pleasure for after life, even tho it maybe right or wrong.

Wearing of trousers by Nigerian ladies has generated a lot of controversies. People have continued to argue if the practice is sinful or not.
Ladies on trouser?

While some churches welcome and promote it, others preach against it. Those who are against it base their stand on Deuteronomy 22: 5, which says: “The woman shall not wear that which pertains to a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.”

Churches, which do not condemn wearing of trousers by women, believe that grace has put an end to such law.

Some people, especially young females, decide the church they will attend based on whether wearing of trousers is allowed or not.

Captainswag225:
well, my mother is also a women so thats one of the reasons. 2. Thats not our culture over here.... Ladies wear skirt and guys wear trousers to church. Lets not abandon our culture. 3.like i said earlier, it causes temptation in church. Its bad to make someone have sinful thoughts while in GOD's presence.

Oluwachinwe:


. how will you feel when you see guys putting on skirts... abi y isn't there male and female skirts too. yu better don't get confused

I don't care if its right or not. What I am sure,is that my daughter and wife will not put on trouser.

My mama never did,my sis never did and nothing happened to them,neither do they look local or odd.

I won't have women in my life gamble salvation all in the name of fashion.
What if they get to heaven and they are told that it is wrong..HELL STRAIGHT.

Life is one chance. Don't gamble it.

Hemah:
The Christian bible didn't condemn it. Who makes trouser a man's garment?

An2elect2:
mtcheeeeeewww. A decent trouser or a skimpy skirt? Are there not customised trousers for females? Wont it be absurd if a man wears those trousers?

Hypocritical pharisees. You put all your efforts/time on trivial things that do not matter and preach another gospel that is no gospel at all

FriedPlantain:

Whoever told you guys trousers were made for men alone? There is a big difference between the male trouser and the female one and I don't think any sane man would put on a female trouser or a sane lady would put on a male trouser.

If you folks can interpret that particular Verse of the Bible as God condemning the act of wearing trousers because it is for men only , then you should also condemn the wearing of suits by women because suits, facecap, t-shirts were initially created for men use only but nowadays they can be worn by anybody. The same applies to trousers as well.


Friedplantain

osesology:

And yet when they preach about the sayings of Paul in the new testament about women covering their head in worship, women not allowed to preach in churches, it is still people like you that will still come out to say that Paul was being too personal and that his sayings are archaic. I think it's time for us to start putting into action the original meanings of the texts in the Bible and stop misinterpreting it just to suit our desired life style.

adebisicutie:


Can you hear yourself? Jesus was here to amend the law right, so why should the law about women not wearing men's clothes not also be amended? Who are you to choose which laws can be amended and which can't?

You are a hypocrite, you are simply choosing the laws you want since they don't affect you while you choose not to obey the ones that apply to men

linusbnn:



Wearing of female trouser is allowed based on the nature of your job and also depends greatly on the assignment you are embarking to keep fit. But please,a church is the House Of God, where his Ark of covenant is placed,where his spirit dwells and so on. Let us dress so we can please God. That is why I dnt attend these new generation churches,where pastors preach to gain crowd,where there is no SIGN to diff btw a hall and a church. Trouser to church by ladies is against God's word,whether it is females own or not

Maccoy1:
how will you feel if you see a male in ur family putting on skirt, you'll say he's probably going nuts or having a melt down or something. so also we should apply the same Principle for women. The trouser looking fit for women doesn't mean it's for women. Some of you'll say there are women trouser, are there men skirt..dont try to change d word of God, you are not greater than God who has given the commandments. Some of us just feel we can force God to come down to our standard and that's not possible. He is an unchangeable changer. He remain the same.

MarieSucre:


For the fact that if majority of a people were doing something doesn't make it right.---- I KNOW RIGHT! IF MAJORITY OF OUR ANCESTORS DIDN'T CONVERT WE WOULD NEVER BE HAVING SUCH A SILLY ARGUMENT ON NAIRALAND. IN FACT THERE WOULD NOTHING LIKE INDECENT DRESSING BECAUSE WE WOULD ALL BE GLORIOUSLY NAKED AND LOVING IT.

1. Modesty - does this clothing cover me adequately? I Tim. 2:9

2. Not worldly - does this clothing reflect the current trends? I John 2:15
----Both of them are subjective, from individual to individual and locality to locality. Except you're advocating we switch to Jewish standards which even modern day Jews do not abide by.

4. Inoffensive - does this clothing offend a brother or sister in Christ? As a woman, will this cause my brother to stumble or think lustfully about me? Rom 14:7-8,12-13 I Cor. 10:23; 8:13
----anyone who gets easily offended deserves to be offended. I could say your comment offends me or the tight body hug shirt of the brother in front of me offends me but I do not live on an island. If I were to try to fit everybody's sensibilities what part of me would be left for me?

5. Glorifies God - does this clothing glorify God, or does it call attention to me and glorify me? I Cor. 10:3
---What does this even mean that all men should start dressing like Aaron or all that all women shoyld start dressing like Mary mother of Jesus?

Trousers is men clothing which has been on for
years,until 100yrs ago. Actresses started wearing a
kind of men suit and it became a norm. Now has a
christain wearing trouser, what's the diff btw you
and the unbelievers who started the fashion trend.
----- Trouser wasn't a standardized clothing for men in Europe till 300 years ago and for men in Africa about 80 years ago. For European and American women about 120 years ago. If it has been so fluid over the centuries why are you trying to justify that its use be halted among African women? As you can see it is not native to even the Africans. Even as at the time that law was passed, the Jews or Hebrews as they were known then did not wear any garment known as a trouser. So what are we saying.
