FASHION! A SHAME FOR DAUGHTERS OF GOD.

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever—He has not changed, and His Word remains unchanging. (Hebrews 13:8). As the Scriptures clearly state, a Christian woman is called to dress modestly and with self-control (1 Timothy 2:9). This Word is still just as relevant today for God’s daughters as it was when it was first written.

In today’s world, we see many people who are mentally unstable walking the streets. Yet, it is rare to see a mad woman walking around completely naked. While it is common to see mad men exposed, you will almost always find mad women covering themselves with whatever rags or cloth they can find. Why is this the case? The answer is simple: the nakedness of a woman is considered more valuable than that of a man, and it is expected to be protected and covered. In Genesis 3:7, when Adam and Eve first realized they were naked, they covered themselves because they were ashamed of their exposure. Nakedness was a sign of sin, and since then, it has been something that requires covering to maintain dignity and honor.

However, today, it’s the woman with a sound mind—whose nakedness is of great value, and who should be covered—who leads the charge in walking around exposed. Proverbs 31:30 states, “Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” It’s heartbreaking that women, who are called to reflect the beauty of God’s design, have become the ones most often leading the world in immodesty. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 reminds us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, and therefore, we should honor God with our bodies, not display them to the world in ways that lead to lustful temptation and sin.

But notice this: men, whose nakedness is considered less valuable in the eyes of the world, are often seen properly clothed, with their necks covered by shirts and ties, their backs and thighs hidden, and their legs protected by shoes and socks. This is the same man whose nakedness holds less value, yet he is expected to keep modest. It’s interesting to note that, in the Bible, 1 Timothy 2:8-10 teaches us that men too should not draw attention to themselves with their appearance, but rather “lift holy hands in prayer, without anger or disputing,” and women, likewise, are called to adorn themselves in “respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control.” The same principle applies to men: clothing should reflect our respect for God and His design, not for self-exaltation.

Yet today, many women feel comfortable parading around in public with exposed backs, cleavage, and thighs, and shockingly, this has even become normalized in some Christian worship services. This practice reveals the underlying spiritual problem—one that Ephesians 6:12 clearly addresses: “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” The spirit of worldliness, sensuality, and rebellion is at work here, and it’s a spirit that has enticed many into immodesty, often without them realizing it.

The question we must ask ourselves is: What spirit is working inside of us? Galatians 5:16 instructs us to “walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.” So why does Jesus warn against such behavior for some women and not others? Why do some believe they are safe in these actions? The answer is found in Romans 8:9, where it says, “You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you.” If the Spirit of God truly lives within us, He will convict us of sin and guide us into righteousness (John 16:8). Therefore, if a person is truly born again, they will experience a transformation in how they view their body and dress.

1 Peter 3:3-4 further clarifies: “Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear—but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious.” This is the kind of beauty God desires in His daughters, not the fleeting, external allure that leads to pride and immodesty.

Matthew 5:28 reminds us that “everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” When a woman dresses immodestly, she becomes a stumbling block to those around her, leading others into sin. This is why modesty is not just about personal preference or cultural tradition; it’s about being responsible stewards of our bodies and not causing others to sin.

Finally, we must acknowledge the truth of Revelation 21:8, which warns that “the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.” Women who continue to live in rebellion to God’s Word, ignoring His command for modesty, will have their place in this lake of fire unless they repent and turn to Christ.

Know this, for certain: all who persist in such practices will find their place in eternal separation from God in the lake of fire. This is what the Lord says… (Romans 1:18-32).
