Peter wrote, “Do not let your adornment be outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on apparel—rather let it be the hidden person of the heart.” But just how literally did the early Christians take that apostolic commandment? Bercot quotes extensively from Scripture and the early Christian writings to answer that question. A challenging message.

I've never heard this teaching in any expression of Christianity in America. It's long overdue.

This is such a sensitive topic. I've brought this up with many Christian women and their attitude seems to be that they're being oppressed by being asked to dress modestly. It's not only an issue for the man to lust but also for the woman to be a stumbling block. Many women don't seem to care at all about being a stumbling block, because they defend their right to dress how they want over denying themselves and taking up their cross daily. In fact, the subject of self denial is rarely a way to convict anyone these days. Jesus said we must deny ourselves in order to follow Him, but most people act like denying self comes from a religious spirit.

I stopped using make-up when I started my dreadlocks in 1986.Yes it is true what you say:Make-up is from demons and fallen angels, not from Gods people.Still i have to wear pants because of the cold here, but I put a skirt or a long dress over the paints, so that I look woman-like.Thank you for the Video, it is very comforting to me.

All of your messages need to be in Spanish. If this is ever done, please let me know so that I can promote them among the Hispanic population.

It sickens me at times the way professing Christians dress. I'm still looking for the "get with the times" concept in the Holy scripture. Immodest dress is definitely grounded on being a part of the world and loving the world, looking like the world rather then being separate. Why people would want to tip-toe the line of hell is beyond stupid if you ask me. Honestly I see it as such an easy fix or change just to start showing God you really do love Him. How far we have come from the way our founding fathers of early Christianity were, they really would be "rolling over in their graves"...

I knew I was watching propaganda when watching the Joan of Arc movie.

Deu 22:5  The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God.

It's a love issue, it's about love for your fellow brother and sister. The men in Jesus Church are our family, our brothers, and we are to love them with a Jesus love, to care about your brother's spiritual well-being, their relationship with Jesus and the entire Church family.

makeup is really a trap! When I was younger I didn´t use to have any and I never needed it I have always had good skin. But I still started putting it on and then more and more. Now in my thirties I don´t wear much, but some, I fill in my brows a little and lipliner always. I don´t have a husband if I did I wouldn´t care that much. But some day I want a husband and why would he not think as this man explains that he thought all the women were unattractive who had no makeup. At least men I have liked before always said I am more pretty natural and that I don´t need makeup. it´s just that I don´t believe it so its something I have to pray about. I do try to wear modest clothes every day. I don´t wear pants only skirts atleast to my knees and loose fitting. I also enjoy having head covering and when I pray, even though I get comments. the makeup part is more my struggle I pray God help me with this!
