Main Concepts
Dress modestly…
Even though
the Lord does not give us specific rules about how to dress, He does give us
some important principles to follow. He
gave these to us for a reason – not to make our lives difficult, but because He
loves us and wants us to focus our hearts on Him!
Do Not Copy the World…
The clothes
we choose to wear are an outward sign of the condition of the our heart. Since our outward appearance communicates so
much, we need to be intentional about what we wear. If we are truly seeking the Lord, it will be
reflected in every area of our life, including clothing.
Do Not Defraud…
We need to
be careful that we are not a stumbling block to others, but choose rather to
encourage others and build them up.
Honor Your Father…
The promised
blessing that comes from honoring your parents includes the “little things,” as
well as the “big things.”
Remember that You are
Representing Jesus Christ…
Our goal
must not be to please ourselves, but to honor Christ and represent Him well.
“Favour is deceitful, and beauty is
vain; but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.” Proverbs 31:30
