you can go ahead and laugh, you are not the first, Festus did same to paul Act 26:24

but note
BEFORE YOU WEAR ANY CLOTHES (whether good or bad), YOU MUST HAVE PLANNED AND DECIDED WITHIN YOUR HEART. So your heart is affected positively or negatively by your dressing.
You can dress holy and yet without holy heart.
You can't dress seductively with a holy heart.
God demands Holiness of heart and Holiness in our outward appearance and character.
Be warned!

I believe in holiness. But I am not less holy because I put on gold.

THE APPROVED COSTLY JEWELRIES
(Ornament of a Meek and Quiet Spirit).

"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 3:4).
In verse three of that chapter, Saint Peter revealed the needlessness and the emptiness of adorning ourselves with plaiting the hair (broided hair: Jerrycurling, wigs, attachments, perming and so on) and of wearing of gold (artificial jewelries: precious stones on our clothes, head ties, shoes; wrist chain watch, earrings, nose rings, wedding rings, rosary rings, necklace, tablets, pearls, beads and so on), or of putting on of apparel (Saint Paul called it "costly arrays", that's expensive clothing, ungodly laces, luxurious clothes and flamboyant head ties).
Paul also forbad godly women from all these heathenish idolatry (1 Timothy 2:9). That is not the jewelries God wants us to adorn ourselves with. But God wants to adorn us with jewelries, I mean costly jewelries...
I want to ask, what actually makes a woman glorious or beautiful? Hanging these idols on your body doesn't make you spiritually glorious, rather they turn you to be an enemy of God, proud, vain and dead!
Peter and Paul were filled with the holy ghost, they were holy men, not carnal men, they gave that commandments by the leading of God and your Bishop is saying "it doesn't matter?" Hmmm.
Holiness of heart is the only jewel women should seek for! The carnal beauty is death, but holy heart is life and peace. Sanctification of your heart from inbred depravity and evil desires should be your inmost desire and thirst!
To wear earrings and necklace are not for Holiness women. Peter said "let it not be the outward adorning..." But rather "but let it be the hidden man of the heart", that is Christ Jesus. Christ in me, the hope of heaven.
You can't have true Christ in your heart when these things are on your body. Get them off your body! Your body is the temple of God.
The meek and quiet spirit is the spirit of Christ, it is the evidence that a man is transformed and renewed in love. It is Sanctification.

Holy heart: no jewelries, no perming, no Jerry curling, no precious stones... Just be natural...
Destroy those things or set them on fire. Holiness of heart is that hidden man of the heart. Christ is Holiness personified and when he comes within, the body must conform to his holy standard.

So, Jesus that put on golden belt is not holy? Are you holier than Jesus?

How is economy like in your state, because here in osun everything just stagnant no light , no sales ..things just fraustrating...I was wondering is like that in other part of the country...can we say we are in famine period

Nothing like famine in Nigeria. God has blessed us with good land and rainfall. There is food everywhere. The situation we are faced with is high cost of living. An average Nigeria is living in poverty. The income earn by an average worker is too small to cater for family needs.

Leave the shop for her.

You just spoke my mind. Legally, you are supposed to settle her if you want to divorce her so she can move on with her life. Let it be the parting gift. You don't know where you will meet tomorrow. Don't take her as an enemy.

At live camp junction, Abuja I decide to get plantain to supplement my food this morning I was surprise when the lady told me two seeds of plantain for N100.

You committed the greater sin by buying it. Unless you just bought it to show Nigerians where we are. Otherwise, 10 pieces of that slice can't even be enough for breakfast.

This is a result of three things; 1. Parental failure. The Bible says we should train up our children in the ways of the Lord so that when they grow up, they will not depart from it. 2. Single parenting. A large percentage of these frustrated youths are most likely coming from single parents. Most men pregnant young ladies and run away. The result is that the children don't receive proper care and they follow the directions the wind of life blows.

3. The church. The present day church has lost focus. No more sound messages. They just tell the people what they want to hear. Besides, there are so many fake churches and pastors that most people don't even want to go to church anymore.

Let's pray for revival in our land and pray that our youths will be delivered from this evil ways they have chosen to follow.

holy dressing is 50% of the requirement for entry into heaven and the other 50% is a pure heart - 2 Cor 7:1

You just made me laugh for minutes. I pity the kind bondage that you have been subjected to.

If you want to dress the Bible way, put on skirt or long gown. Even our Lord Jesus didn't put on trousers.

You just punish yourself with dogmas.

Even your Pastor who taught you this dogmas is trying to correct it.

I pray that more people will come out of this dogmas in Jesus name. Amen m

Borrowing to fund their terrorist activities and enrich themselves. Where is the evidence of the money borrowed? Insecurity is worse than ever. Our refineries are still not working. There is no improved power supply. So, what are they borrowing the monies for if not for selfish reasons. They will all one day stand before God and give account of their stewardship.

2 Cor 7:1 proves you wrong!

paul was speaking to people like you in 2 Tim 4:3-4

3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

So, holiness is in your dress code. You can wear long skirt and still commit fornication.

What you need is a change of heart and not a change of dress code. And when your heart is changed, you will definitely dress decently.

There are ladies who put on trousers that are decently dressed.

What about our NYSC where all ladies put on trousers? Are you saying that if rapture takes place, they will not make heaven because they put on trousers?

Or God will reject them for putting on gold he made?

Russia will fall.

I hope she doesn't revenge it. I hope Bianca will always move with security.

Read (Isaiah 3:16-24, Genesis 35:1-4, Jeremiah 4:30, I Timothy 2:9, I Peter 3:1-3).

All holiness preachers down the ages condemned the use of jewelries by Christians. The Protestant churches rejected it's uses, calling it "idolatry". Martin Luther wrote against it, John Hus, Wycliffe, John Wesley and George Whitefield rejected the use of jewelries by true believers.
If you read 1 Peter 3:3, Saint Peter explained it perfectly "...not with gold!" Gold represents all jewelries, including wedding rings. Paul speaking expressly with the same spirit with Peter condemned it also in his Epistle to Timothy (I Timothy 2:9).
Timothy as a Bishop must teach this truth, he must condemn the use of jewelries of all kind, including all precious stones and pearls. Paul wrote to him for him to know the best godly adornment benefiting to godly women. Peter also wrote "not with plaiting of hair, not with gold..." That's their outward adornments should not be characterized by all these heathenish materials...
Some Christians, so-called said "it is a personal conviction".
Now, is it a personal conviction? No! Whatsoever that is found written in the Bible is or are for our good and Christian perfection. Those who said "it is a personal conviction" are in the wrong spirit. They are heretical.
All holiness preachers condemned it's use. The early Methodist members never wear jewelries, John Wesley stood against it! He called it an idolatry and no idolaters have any lot nor part in the kingdom of God. John Wesley never taught his people only on the inward holiness of heart, he also warned them to be careful in the way they dress, avoiding the use of gold and makeups for beauty.
In fact, Old Anglican Church never wear it. They rejected! The use of any kind of jewelries, pays eternal doom in hell fire. Any Bishop who wears it as Bishop ring, necklace and bangles, will never see God!
The first woman never wear jewelries, Eve never wear earrings. She was natural as God made her, who then are you that is wearing it!
Hell is the portion of all women who wears it, believe it or not, the last day will justify this post! On that day of judgment John Wesley will reject the present Methodists for rejecting his Holiness tradition to worldliness.
Accept this truth, inform your Bishop, tell your Pastors, warn your congregations to repent from wearing it, because hell will not spare them.
Throw those evils away, cleanse yourself! Be holy

You are a grossly dishonest Christian. How can you be using Peter statement on it to back up your point when Peter also mentioned clothing. If Peter condemned the use of gold, then he also condemned clothing because it was in the list.

The fact that so called holiness preachers condemned it doesn't make them right.

Our Lord Jesus would not tie a golden belt around his waist if it's wrong.

God will not accept it as offering from the Jews.

Who made the gold? The scripture says that the gold is mine and the silver is mine. Why would God see it wrong for his children to make use of what he made?

Just renew your mind. Upgrade your knowledge. Holiness is not in your outward appearance. It's the state of your heart that makes you hate sin and do what is right.

There are so many women who don't put on these jewelry but behave like the devil.

BornofGod108:
gold can be used for various thing but God condemn it for bodily use Exo 33:5-6. God still speak against it in Isaiah 3:16-22

But God used it to decorate Lucifer before his fall. He used ten different precious stones - Ezekiel 28:13

And our Lord Jesus tied a golden belt around his waste in the book of Revelation 1:13

God loves beauty and he goes for the best.

The very thing most Christians are afraid to put on is what we we walk upon in heaven.

Please renew your mind on this subject.

BornofGod108:
do you know that jewelries is not only condemned by the Apostles? but that God first condemned it?, he commanded his children to remove those things from their body if they want his presence! Exo 33:5-6

No, God didn't condemn it. He only told the Jews to strip themselves of that ornaments at that moment because of the likelihood they could fall into the same temptation again.

Mind you that they didn't throw them away. It was the same Jewelry they gave as offering for the work of the house of the Lord;

Exodus 35:21-22
21 And they came, every one whose heart stirred him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought the LORD'S offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation, and for all his service, and for the holy garments.

22 And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings, and rings, and tablets, all jewels of gold: and every man that offered offered an offering of gold unto the LORD.

BornofGod108:
feel sorry for yourself, 1Tim 2:9-10 and 1Pet 3:1-3 clearly condemn jewelry and you are still arguing? Well whatever makes you feel good type, the end shall tell!

1st Peter 3:3
Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel.

What is apparel in modern English? So, Peter said women should not put on clothing.

Apostle Paul only added expensive clothing to his list. Are you saying all the clothes you put on are cheap clothing?

Sometimes, Paul also wrote his personal opinions on certain issues.

God used one of the most expensive ornament, gold to pave the streets of heaven.

Those verses only cautious that women should not give too much attention to these things. It never said they shouldn't put them on.

After all, the mummy GOs of churches who condemn jewelry put on expensive clothing.

Russia will fall

If Japan embrace the gospel, the earthquake will either stop or will be a much less magnitude. These so called natural disasters are the results of the sin of mankind.

I don't blame these politicians. More blame goes to some of our Pastors who hardly teach morals again from the pulpit. They only teach sweet messages and even give positions of honour to these thieves.

It's gross disrespect to do such dance on NYSC uniform. They should be identified and punished. The moral degradation in our society is something else. May God save our youths.

1Tim 2:9-10 and 1Pet 3:1-3 condemns jewelry and indecent dressing.Female trouser is indecent because TROUSERS MAKES WOMEN NAKED!

THE SHAPE OF HER PRIVATE PARTS ARE SEEN, THE SIZE OF HER BUTTOCKS, LAPS AND WAIST ARE SEEN! That is immorality!
But what actually made you to wear trouser as a woman?
in our society trousers is known as a masculine dress, and Deut :22:5 says any woman that put on masculine dress(Trouser) is an abomination in sight of God! even if you are a pastor

I am afraid of you. If those verses you quoted condemned jewelry, then it also condemned clothing for clothing was included in the list.

The street of heaven are made of gold.

Our Lord Jesus put on a golden belt in the book of Revelation.

Men wore skirts at the time Deuteronomy 22:5:was written.

Even at that, the Law of Moses is not binding on the church.

The problem you are having is sin consciousness. I know you will also condemn Jesus for permitting a harlot to kiss him and pour perfume on him.

I feel sorry for the bondage your Pastor has put you in

Maximus85:
You have been enslaved to a lie since 1986.

You will know the truth and the truth will set you free. Set you free from satanic lies carried about by unsuspecting humans.

If you dont speak raca Baba... Youre not a believer? Where did Jesus teach such thing? O ga ooo

Mark 16:17
And these signs shall FOLLOW THEM THAT BELIEVE; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues.

I hope you are not blind. It's a sign that ought to follow them that believe. They shall speak with new tongues.

Maximus85:
Fact that is not in the Bible, right? And you mean that language not spoken on earth is the rekebobo that you guys are speaking on earth abi?

Stop deceiving yourselves. We know how they allegedly train people how to speak the gibberish in that church in Ogun State.

I have been filled with the Holy Spirit since 1986 and I wasn't trained to speak in tongues. The Holy Spirit gives the utterance. It comes from the innermost belly.

It's a sign that ought to follow all believers according to the word from the very lips of our Lord Jesus - Mark 16:17. So, if you don't speak in tongues, you are not a believer.

BornofGod108:
your unbelief does not stop it from being a sin! you shall get to know it at the day of God's judgement, but by that time it will be too late to change

You are still making assertions without backup from the Bible. The scripture says that every word shall be established in the mouth of two of three evidences. But you don't even have one. And I have several evidences to buttress my point.

1. The Righteousness we have received from God is a free gift. We don't work for it - Romans 5:17.

2. Salvation is by grace and not of works - Ephesians 2:8-9.

3. The church is not under the Law of Moses or under any strict rules that has to do with outward appearance. The scripture only says we should avoid sins like fornication, adultery, lying, stealing etc.

4. Not even the letters of Apostle Paul or Peter refer to style of dress. They only caution women to be modest in appearance.

Your problem is a mindset you already have. Keep it to yourself if you have no scripture to back it up.

I know people like you will also condemn women who make up or put on jewelry.

The worse after dying is landing in the pit of hell they don't believe in. It will be the greatest shock of his life. And he will wonder, why didn't I listen to my conscience.

Thats a broadway church! forget the miracle she is doing for she is dishonourable vessel in hands of God - (2 Tim 2:20-21), she will not enter heaven except she repents and put of that attire of an harlot 2 Cor 7:1

This is dogma and not doctrine. You still don't have scriptures to back up your point. Not even Deuteronomy 22:5 supports you.

Maximus85:
Wow! I am amazed.

So, if a Chinese speaking pastor comes to preach the gospel in Ijebu, there wont be a need for an interpreter?

Wow!

The people in on the day of Pentecost who heard them speak in tongues were not indigenous people of Israel. Every tribe present heard them speak in their mother tongue.

But the fact does not change that they also spoke in tongues that were not necessarily languages spoken on earth.

Can he show the same favour to a man without strings attached?

Maximus85:
Sir, Tongue means language. In pentecost 33CE those that spoke in tongues were speaking languages that people can understand. Go read Acts 1:1-11.

Who understands that gibberish you guys speak today?

The gift of speaking in different languages was a gift of the spirit, no to talk to God but to preach the gospel to people of different languages.

Wdf is sharrababa. And that trash you guys speak sound all the same.

How come Gallileans speak our languages and we can hear them? People heard.

The experience of speaking in tongues in known languages only happened on the day of Pentecost during the days of the early church. They also spoke in tongues that could not be understood.

This is why Apostle Paul wrote;

1st Conrinthians 14:14
For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

If they always spoke known languages in tongues, there would have been no need to look for an interpreter.

female trouser is an indecent dress!

That is your opinion. I don't agree with you. Joyce Mayer who is a female minister with very large congregation of about 20,000 members is mostly on trousers and she is decently dressed. Don't condemn those who Christ have accepted.

AntiChristian:
As you can see from the above, they actually wrote from hearsays, what they believed and as it was handed down to them.

No holy spirit inspiration involved here. This contradicts your previous Timothy verse.

The Bible also contains historical parts which was included as a witness to the truth contained in it. There is the Prophetic part which is 100% inspired by the Holy Spirit.

Even the words spoken by Satan was also included.

The letters of Apostle Paul to the churches he planted were written by revelation under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

It is the only book on earth unveils the origin of creation, how man fell and the redemption that Jesus brought.

It is the only book on earth that unveils the future to us and what it said is already happening.
