Please lets be matured and stop all this trouser is a sin thing. where in the bible was it ever mentioned that trouser is for men? back in the days,
robes was what was worn, Some body woke up and designed Trousers for men. and some people say trouser is for men. So Military and para military women
will never enter the Kingdom of God then cos they dont dress decently.
Its the manner that the woman wears the trouser that is a sin, and not wearing trouser itself

deebrain: People should just stop quoting scripture to keep themselves in bondage. That scripture in the book of deut that talked about the things that pertains/belongs to women or the things that belongs to men. Please use historical references. It was talking about things that pertains to woman kind or mankind (who are going through their natural causes eg-sanitary pads for women and things that stimulate the males-(very arguably) vigra). As at the time this law was made, women wore under tights (similar to leggings). MEN WORE SKIRTS. Only the high priest wore an under garment like the women did. Its sick that many people will just use a verse they know nothing about and use it as a subject of holiness or doctrine of their church. And besides, God does not look at yr dressings but the intentions of yr dressing.
Are you a Pastor?

k2039: I don't know if it is right or wrong;there are lot of controversy surrounding it.I will advise to be on the safer side,dont wear trousers(my reason if you get to heaven if God says it's not a requirement you don't have anything to loose,but if it is the other way round you have all to loose


Well said. If men of God can warm ladies to avoid wearing trousers then it means God is against it.

@op wearing of trousers is not a sin. Wat d bible says in Deut 22 vs 5 is 'the woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God.
So @op as long as ur trousers r 4 women deres natn wrong

Disobedience is a sin true true. If you are heavenly minded, you will want to obey every word of the Bible to the last. You will not make a defence to yourself. You will be Christ like. that is why the early disciples were called christians.
Many 'christians' may not enter heaven because they have married the world, they have brought the world into the church rather than bringing the church into the world, they loved to be like those in the world - that is why they cannot see the sin in wearing trousers.

Well if not that the women have some other motives, why not wear a gown long enough to cover your trouser lenght and see if this will still be a debate.

Orikinla: THERE WERE NO TROUSERS WHEN THE HOLY BIBLE WAS WRITTEN.
IN FACT, WHAT MEN WORE IN THOSE DAYS WERE WHAT WE CALL SKIRTS TODAY.
AS LONG AS THE TROUSERS ARE NOT MEANT TO LURE AND SEDUCE MEN, YOU CAN WEAR THEM.


I agree with you, There are different shape of trouser, trouser made in male shape shouldn't be wear be women, vise versa.
A man will never accept to wear a womans suit trouser, The word trouser was not found in any place in the bible. There is a History of when it became an attire.

@OP,
If you feel guilty of wearing trouser then put it off you. But you should as well be aware that there are alot of things you must put aside as well.

Christmas, Easter, celebration of dead saints day, new year day, birthday etc....The bible warned us not to practice man traditions.

Some people dress like harlots, they intentionally dress like that to seduce men. They have bad spirit, while the decent woman will dress modest.

The context of deu 22:5 was for purity amongst the isrealite, not necessarily the apparel.
MEN have nocturnal discharge which make them and the apparel unclean.
WOMEN menstrate which make unclean and their clothens unclean.

It is only a sin for a woman to wear a cloth which has already being use by a male viz-a-viz.

Because you feel its not proper to, ur conscience is at work here.

Exodus 3:5 "Do not come any closer," God said. "Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground."

But yo can put ur sandals after i am throuh with you. This does not condermn the use of Sandal though undecided i believe we should dress decent when in the presence of God.
when we are at our work place or at home its different.

Wearing a trouser is not a sin,people just open bible $ pull out one verse and start laying emphasy on it.the same chapter also say u shall not wear clothe made of same material such as line $ wool,if u look at most of the cloth now is 50% linen 50% wool that should be a sin.the same chapter also say a farmer should not plant diff. Things in their farm that is if u plant yam it should only be yam if u plant another thing that should be a sin.that mean if u are doing one bussiness it should be one bussiness

switnjl: I happened to be in this commercial vehicle and the one preaching kept talking about the fact that God hates trousers on a Christian lady because the bible says woman shouldn't put on men's attire.

I put on trousers all the time because it frees my movements. I am also a very dedicated Christian.

should I stop?

I need ur comments pls.

Asking women not to wear this or that is bunkum. In the middle east, up until western influence, men wore garbs, or gowns. While in Scotland, their men wear kilts or what can referred to as skirts! What to wear is a function of culture and does not alter who you are in your mind. Wear what is allowed within your culture and what is comfortable for you.

I hope you people know that any body regardless of his religious belief visit this thread. If you make you religion look as if it grant free will to its adherents to subvert its meaning to suit their ego/lust, please ' what signal are you sending'? At least, religion should guide the conduct of men not otherwise. So, take note!

A Nigeria preacher who always condemn perming and trousers cotravelled to Australia to preach. When he was to preach, he discover that both choir leader and other members wore trousers. The same people speak in tongues and are born again. He then dawn on him that it is Africa preachers that lay emphasis on trousers. Africa preachers preach against it cos they are scared of being seduced. That is d reason. If somebody quotes Deut 22.5, such person lack bible knowledge. Ladies, in d church should dress according to d doctrine of their church.
Re: Is It Sinful To Wear Trousers As A Christian Lady? by emmasege: 7:19pm On Oct 06, 2012
It is very possible to wear skirt as a lady and be more seductive than even wearing trouser. I used to belong to that school of thougt that outrightly castigates any xtian lady wearing trouser. The scripture says whatever we do should be to the glory of God. If the motive for wearing trouser is to seduce men, then it becomes a sin but if ur motive is pure, u will wear a trouser that covers ur body and does not in anyway seduce men, thereby glorifying God. Finally, i'd like to refer you to the counsel of Apostle John that "If our hearts do not condemn us, then have we confidence toward God". Shalom

Re: Is It Sinful To Wear Trousers As A Christian Lady? by blessed05: 7:31pm On Oct 06, 2012
Shame some "believers" have lost direction. At the time Deuteronomy 22 was written men were not wearing trousers. Since when did faith have anything to do with wearing trousers or not.
What happens to the "holy" sisters who adhere to religious decrees by church leaders against trousers; do not wear trousers to church but cannot be trusted with other people's money, have no love for even fellow believers and wear their trousers to satisfy their secret lover's lust?
