What Is The Modest Christian Dressing? by babalobi(m): 10:23am On May 03, 2011
1 Peter 3 King James Bible

1 Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;

2 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.

3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 4 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

Does the Bible oppose wearing of Jewelers or putting on hair stlyes? The answer is No. What the Bible teaches in all the passages that dwells on Christian clothing is modesty.

This simply means what should wear should glorify God. What you wear on your head or wrist should not beautify you and glorify God. The Bible also teaches that you should place more emphasis on your inner character than you outer dressing.

The modest Christian dress is that dress that compliments your beauty and appearance as God's master piece without any attempt to be selfish

Try asking a deeper life member what true christian dressing is and she will tell you to wear turtle neck blouses, oversized suits and no trousers

In an oversized suit, your skirt or trousers might fall down, and then you would really be in trouble!!

Christian Adornment

"I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, He hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels" (Isaiah 61:10).

This beautiful Old Testament verse speaks eloquently of the appropriate adornments and clothing of Christians.  The worldly person may dress in costly garments and ornate jewelry, but these are no better than hastily sown fig-leaf aprons (Genesis 3:7) or filthy rags (Isaiah 64:6), if they merely attempt to beautify an unregenerate life.  Far better than even the elaborate ornaments and jewels at an oriental wedding are the garments of salvation and the robe of righteousness prepared by God Himself, even though outwardly they may appear as mere "coats of skins" (Genesis 3:21).

Note the admonition of Paul in the New Testament. "I will therefore . . . that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shame-facedness and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works" (I Timothy 2:8–10). 

Similarly to Christian wives, Peter says: "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" (I Peter 3:3,4).

A Christian should also be clothed in "the whole armor of God . . . loins girt about with truth, . . . the breastplate of righteousness; . . . feet shod with . . . the gospel of peace; . . . the shield of faith . . . the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit" (Ephesians 6:13–17). 

Both by modest clothing and by a Spirit-controlled life, we thus ought to "adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things" (Titus 2:10). HMM
