Hmmm,wearing earrings is serving strange gods?
Those scriptures you quoted do not indicate that the earrings are the problem but the use to which it is put.
Wood was used to make images of gods which were worshipped.That must mean the use of wooden household items is serving gods.Earrings is not the problem,it is what it is used for that is a problem.
When the children of Israel donated their earrings to make a golden calf,the problem was not the material(golden earrings)but the use to which it was put.
Artificial hairs are made of synthetic materials,just like perfumes are manufactured from chemicals.Religious people say it's demonic spirits that are behind it.
These doctrines are part of some Christian denominations.
The bible says the law of the spirit of life has made me free from the law of sin and death.

RobinHez:
See how he neatly skipped the part talking about God's perfect image and the boreing of holes

....and what is God's perfect image?

Earrings or no earrings . I don't think The Lord is concerned about inconsequential artifacts such as earrings.. Okay, now
How does this sound to you?

sister Anna is living a perfect Christian life but she will not make it into heaven because she wears earrings.

Like, it's Zany. It's kinda funny. Christ came to show us the way, he came to correct the wrongs our founding fathers practiced. He came to make us see Christianity as something that can be practiced by everyone with ease.

I don't see God as a strict being with a dogmatic theology who is after creating draconian rules and enforcing dour laws and principles.

I stand to be corrected though. Sir RobinHez

Some Nigerian Christians are downright Legalist, and if you are a legalist you will keep striving to please God in the flesh and you will fail,Paul said something in the book of 2nd Corithians 2 vs22" who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a gurantee" another version the Holy Spirit is the downpayment that we have been saved. You cannot be a legalist and please God, no wonder the Lord Jesus accuse the Pharisees that they judge by appearance rather than righteous judgement,except if you are convincted that the Holy Spirit tells you to stop which is a personal matter.God's word says the gold and silver is His,if God in His infinite wisdom created cotton seed for fabrics, black gold for petroleum resources why can't you believe gold was purposely created to be an ornament.The only objection to this case is when you make it object of worship which the Israelites did in the book of Exodus.If one is led by the Lord not to use it, then don't do it and that message is not for everbody.You can only pleased God by Faith because He is the one in Charge of your life, not you(that is when you allow Him to do so). The more you allow Him the more you are sanctified,(seperation) from sin,(sin that defiles us)not with appearance and I want to believe as children of God we should dress moderately and modestly.

here we go again.
