Indecent Dressing In Churches Worries Nigerian Pastor by Nobody: 1:12am On Oct 07, 2011
The pastor of Christ Family International Christian Centre, Solomon Oziegbe, has expressed concern over growing indecent dressing in some churches.

The cleric, who said this at a news conference to herald the fifth anniversary of the church on Tuesday in Lagos, warned that indecent dressing was ungodly and inimical to the growth of the Christian faith.

Ozeigbe said, "On the question of indecent dressing, the churches failed in many areas whereas God has not failed. The leaders, ministers, pastors have failed God. God can never fail. His word will never fail. He said 'heaven and earth shall pass away but my word will remain the same.' The men of God are reading the bible but they are not teaching the truth.

"The issue of dressing is a very serious thing in the world. Unclad or indecent dressing does not encourage the Christian faith, we are supposed to caution the way people dress. The bible commands us to dress well, especially the women. The dressing is part of the worship but these days people say God looks to the heart. It is what the heart sees that the body says.

"Every church that wants to experience God must look at the dressing of its members because holiness must start in the house of God. Most pastors are not interested in that message. All they are after is membership. If you can put the church in order and dressing in order, the people will come and the church will grow. The truth is that pastors should arise and speak on the area of dressing."

He added that proliferation of churches would not stop until clerics preached the truth, saying "many have shifted focus to miracle and prosperity."

There is no basis for indecent dressing at all.

Some people will tell us to look at the inward appearance and not the outward appearance. As if the outward appearance is not an off-shoot of what's inside.

Answer:

Dressing in a way that is likely to shock or offend people is called indecent dressing. Now, what is likely to offend people? Parts of your body (usually sexual organs) that normally should be covered, which for girls would be their breasts, thighs and buttocks. There is this trend of wearing trousers that expose the female underwear when she bends or sits down.

Guys also dress indecently when their boxers show above their trousers or there is no underwear and yet their trousers just barely hang on to their waists.

The foundation of God standeth sure and will never change. People, Pastors are changing and leading people in error. This issue of dressing cannot be sweep aside. Many are guilty. unclothedness must be covered but Pastors are preaching something else becos of their belly.

The desperate single girls will do what they can to seduce Nigerian men, including pastors.
You wonder whether they are "Christians" or club girls.

I am most impressed that many of our youth are waking up to the mass deception of many so called preachers.

May God send more preachers like this man.

pastor solomon oziegbe, there's no hard and fast rule to this cos what is decent in this church might be seen as indecent in the other ones!
people should just go to church, worship and leave. stop paying attention to what girls are wearing in the church. nigerian men being randy animals are the problems. always blaming the opposite gender for their own gross irresponsibilities!

"The Lord also says:Because the daughters of Zion ( Christian Women )  are haughty,walking with heads held high and seductive eyes,going along with prancing steps,jingling their ankle bracelets,the Lord will put scabs on the heads of the daughters of Zion,and the Lord will shave their foreheads bare.On that day the Lord will strip their finery: ankle bracelets, headbands, crescents, pendants, bracelets, veils, headdresses, ankle jewelry, sashes, perfume bottles, amulets, signet rings, nose rings, festive robes, capes, cloaks, purses, garments, linen clothes, turbans, and veils.Instead of perfume there will be a stench;instead of a belt, a rope;instead of beautifully styled hair, baldness;instead of fine clothes, sackcloth;instead of beauty, branding." - Isaiah 3:16-24




"Also, the women are to dress themselves in modest clothing, with decency and good sense, not with elaborate hairstyles, gold, pearls, or expensive apparel, but with good works, as is proper for women who affirm that they worship God. " - 1 Timothy 2:9-10




"Your beauty should not consist of outward things like elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold ornaments[w] or fine clothes. 4Instead, it should consist of what is inside the heart with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very valuable in God’s eyes. 5For in the past, the holy women who put their hope in God also beautified themselves in this way, submitting to their own husbands"-1 Peter 3:3-5



"Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a H.arlot and with crafty intent." - Proverbs 7:10

I am sure and truely beleive that no pastor or church will encourage indecent dressing especially amongst ladies.But no church will also send members home b/cos of how he/she dresses.You come to church the way u are, the preaching of the gospel is what should change individual.Let us also understnad that not all church members are beleivers or born again.
Re: Indecent Dressing In Churches Worries Nigerian Pastor by Kulas: 12:49pm On Oct 07, 2011
The fact is that which of these churches does indecent dressing very common? so that we can start from there and preach to them even here in nairaland and other online forums since their pastors can only see where they mention tithes in the bible but cannot see where they mention about indecent dressing.
