Why Born Again Christians Should Dress Like Genuine Christians by cutecommend(op): 7:24am On Jun 22, 2025
If your heart is genuine and good, dress the way your heart looks like.

I got this insight from someone: "Do you expect a mad man to say his heart is not mad, though he is appears, behaves and dresses like a mad man?"

As a true Christian, it is wrong to dress in worldly, seductive and ungodly ways that makes even sinners confused or doubt whether you are a true Christian. You dress to glorify God, not to dress or appear anyhow while saying "God sees the heart".

Lastly, decent dressing should not be worshipped or idolized: and a Christian should dress decently in God's standard and by the leading of the HolySpirit, and not because of any Church's sentiments, tradition, dogma e.t.c.

Please remember to say this prayer: Lord Jesus, have mercy on me. Forgive me all my sins and come into my life in Jesus name. Amen.

Happy Sunday to you. Visit a bible-believing church.

Dress in a way that glorifies God. God wants you to dress to please Him.

Do not say some wicked people are dressing decently that is why you hate decent dressing.

Remember, people do not go to hell fire in groups.

Christians should have a Godly heart and Godly appearance.

There's no definition of how anyone should still dress!

That's why churches are still filled with oloshoistic dressings! And the church will keep fighting on the wears for ladies till they kingdom come!

Lovely analogy though!

Forget dressing

Some skirts are more evil than trousers

Some women without earrings commit atrocities daily compared with their counterparts with makeups

There is nothing like genuine Christian. Its either u are a Christian or u are not. Stop confusing urself with religion. Christianity is bigger than religion

Yes you are right.
Let's all wear gowns and sandals like Jesus and his friends did.
Please tell us if they were wearing pant in that gown so we can do the same.
Re: Why Born Again Christians Should Dress Like Genuine Christians by omoredia: 9:12am On Jun 22, 2025
Sinners are not the one to decide whether u are a Christian. It is the spirit that bears witness. So don't get things wrong. U are preaching religion and not the truth

Shahada indeed..

What if your forefathers and parents were Christians.. And you were born into a Christian home. Do you think you'd be a Muslim today?

if you believe a person dresses the way their hearts look would you not confuse a saint to be one who looks like it, by saying o you look decent so therefore your heart is decent.

If the devil like to act like God and appear as an angel, why do you think children of the devil would do differently

Some of the most wicked people are the most modestly dress with false humility, dressing in ways that command respect from others to hide the disgust in their hearts

But at least it helps them to hide their true identities and reduce other vices associated with indecent dressing.

Meanwhile, when it comes to indecent dressing, Nigerians never start.. I visited Dakar late last year - omoh omoh omoh X50!

This thread no even suppose exist for Nigerian forum.

Dressing according to the bible had 3 purposes;

1. To cover your unclothedness
2. For beauty
3. For glory

....anything outside the above 3 isn't cool

Genuine Christians should dress like nudists. That's FREEDOM
Re: Why Born Again Christians Should Dress Like Genuine Christians by IME1: 10:25am On Jun 22, 2025
Today in church we were taught that your receiving the body and blood of Christ makes you Christ. Your identity is Christ Jesus. If you carry Jesus in your inside, your outward look must reflect and tally with what you carry inside.
It's a no brainer, nothing to argue, closed topic, non-issue THAT males and females, men and women, boys and girls, toddlers and babies should be gorgeously, decently and honourably adorned and dressed. Your apparel must reflect who you are - a co-heir with Christ Jesus Who is the Prince of Peace, King of kings. As a royal priesthood, embrace your identity as a priest and royalty and dress well. I don tire to dey correct people wey dey dishonour their temple dey dress any how, na your identity you dey showcase - insane, promiscuous, wild, Goethe, demonic, repulsive, vulgar, indecent or gullible to trends. But you can choose to be a child of God and dress as it pleases God Your Father, your choice.

What is God's standard of dressing?
Why is there more emphasis on dressing "decently" than being a decent person internally.
Apart from dressing seductively or dressing in a way that promotes any kind of sin for instance wearing shirts, jackets or hoodies that have ungodly messages or images on them and wearing the clothes that men should wear as woman or vice versa.
I believe a Christian can wear anything, it doesn't have to fit your church's standard to be decent.

If your mom is a Christian nko?

Does that change anything?

You were born into a religion that was choose for you.

You didn't have a say.

First of all there is nothing like christian dressing but decent dressing...every culture have thier ways of dressing but even at that there is still decency in different culture dressing.

Some christian doctrine emphasize more in women covering thier hair even outside the church environment, some doctrine also frown at female putting on trousers in church or even outside church circle.

Some church doctrine even frown at members training or having long beards in church and outside church circle cos beard have now been included in dressing e.t.c

I think as humans we should dress most times at the occassion we are going we look like and present ourself worthy of emulation. You cant expect a lady or sister who is going for land inspection inside the bush as an agent to were long skits getting to her feet simply because her church frown or sees trouser wearing for females as indecent dressing is unheardof.

There are some men who dont even have Jeans trousers only pens ...they see jeans as trousers for rascal..even when going to staduim to watch football they cant wear shorts is absurd.

I still think it is the heart the lord searches even though we should not go overboard when it comes to dressing.
