... and the objective/purpose of a guy wearing earrings like women typically do is??

That said/asked.. the closest prohibition (which occurred after your Exodus 32:2 reference) 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." - Deuteronomy 22:5

If women are permitted to wear earrings as an ornament so are the men as well! The verse below speaks volumes:

Exodus 32:2 And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.

The tradition of the Israelites was compatible with men and women wearing earrings as an ornament and it was as old as the time of Abraham. This is evident when Abraham's eldest servant seeking a wife for Isaac found Rebecca and gave her gifts and among the gifts was an earring.

Genesis 24:22
And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold;

Now if by the tradition of the Israelites women wear earrings then men should also wear earrings...

Howeves in our time female Christians wear earrings as an outward adornment contrary to the doctrine (popularized by some):

1 Peter 3:3-4
Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

but if female Christians are permitted to use earrings why aren't the male Christians permitted as well in some congregations?

nice post!! Its just makes sense! Some men used to wear ear rings and bracelets in african tradition right before the advent of the whites , now they see it to be sinful, it just goes to show that there is a big mental brainwash and slavery

Remember these people had one way or the other become Egyptians by association, just like the influence america has on so many visitors today! Before Jacob and his children went to Egypt we didn't read about them using earrings! Don't read the Bible out of context!

[quote author=SuperModerator post=29470271]men should not wear what partaineth to a woman

How do you know what pertains to a woman ? Where is it written ?

I definitely know trousers were made long after the time of the bible. Who decided that it is okay for both genders ?

Your point just doesn't hold

But that's an off point thing to say; our organs are different and as such have different needs.

But we both have ears of about the same size. So...

I am not saying men should start wearing earrings for it will be ridiculous and it's not the norm. But these pastors when they want oppress the congregation on money issues they run to the old testament. Every other thing they will say christ has paid the price so those issues should be forgotten.

Oh really ??!! So all men who wear earrings are homosexuals? What of those who wear chains ? Homosexuals too? And those who wear ornamental bands? Homosexuals too?
Re: Why Can't Men Wear Earrings In Church? by sCross: 5:46am On Jan 04, 2015
Truth is that most people don't have a logical answer to the op's question hence the personal insults they're hurling.

Motive is the most important thing as far as God is concerned. So no earrings are not bad. Yes they're odd cos of our culture but odd never equals bad. Not now not ever

Y'all can judge all you like but there's only one whose opinion really counts; GOD.
Re: Why Can't Men Wear Earrings In Church? by illicit(m): 6:02am On Jan 04, 2015
The question is why do you want to wear earrings in the church, now am not religious, but aint nothing sacred to you? Must you defile everything and everywhere? If you are allowed, next year u will open another thread and ask, WHY ARE MALE CROSS DRESSERS NOT ALLOWED IN CHURCH? dude maintain ur sanity!
