Leeman's view on modesty ! by brian luke leeman



This is issue  of modesty in Christianity  is highly  debated  issue , so i thought i would give  my view on  this issue .


I am probably going to offend the old school Conservative  stiff  Christians  but  I have to speak the truth and nothing but the truth !

 I went to a bible school  were we couldn't wear  certain  clothing  because it would cause our fellow students to fall in temptation .

I will admit certain things  guys or ladies should not wear but some of the rules were crazy !!

 For example, Guys could not wear shorts unless  you were going to gym play a sport or going to work out .

Another example ,  we had to do wear dress clothes to class for some crazy reason , so the ladies had to wear dresses  ( knee's had to be covered ) .

I never got this bull crap ,   it never made sense that their thinking is that  Christian's are one step from falling temptation because some girl's knees are showing or  that guy wearing shorts in the public area is going send a girl into lust.

Now  there are some thing's guys and gals should not wear    , Ex. Guys: mankini's  and EX. ladies : yoga pants, i am not going to name more , my next point will explain why .

What ever happen to self control and taking responsibility ?


1 Corinthians 9:27English Standard Version (ESV)

27 But I discipline my body and keep it under control,[a] lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.

We are suppose to have self discipline , which means  reading the Bible and spending time in Prayer  !
For some reason some Christians would rather be legalistic and not be self discipline and not take responsibility for there lust/fleshly desires .

Yow all remember  how Adam put the blame on eve for giving him the apple from the tree ? Guess what ?  Adam is was much to blame as Eve was !
Adam did not have to take  or eat that apple ! he had a choice !

WE HAVE A CHOICE TO GIVE IN TO LUST !!!!!!!
now if you choose to wear dress clothes , long sleeved shirts , or jean skirts,  more power to you but don't act like your way is the right way to dress as christian .
in Closing,  if i have offend you then good . maybe i got you thinking !
