Are "Saggings" & Wearing "Torn Jeans" Sins? by doctokwus: 12:46pm On Mar 05, 2017 |
Was in church today and d priest was condemning those who "sag" and females or males that wear torn jeans. He claimed they are immoral acts,amongts others practiced by the youths of today. Though he didnt categorically say they are sins,but his trend of speech wit strong condemnation was heading in that direction. In my mind I didnt quite see it that way. My question is: are unusual fashion trends really immoral or sinful acts? I ask because i av seen pics and videos of Europeans or Americans that go to church half unclad and priests over there dont dwell on it as immoral. Are our priests now more knowledgeable in the bible than those in d western world? 1 Like

This op is among the religious "sheeple". You should also ask your Pastor if it is a sin for a police man to kill an Armed robber;since you don't have a mind of your own to discern what is morally wrong or right. People like you are the ones that bring fannatism to Christianity because the words of your various 'pastors' become a law instead of the word of God. 15 Likes 1 Share |

enshy:So church attendees in d developed world that wear bumshorts,half unclad to churches are what,sinners or immoral? I bet in Europe and America now,with d way church numbers are falling astronomically,if they see 10 'saggers ','torn jean' or even pant and bra wearers every sunday service,the churches wud be celebrating them with free meals and drinks. Here,we condemn them,even wen its stated clearly in the bible no one shud judge another,particularly when it concerns biblical injunctions. 4 Likes |

If saying to a xtian this thing displeases God is judging the person, I bet you wont have wait so long at the Great White Throne Judgment!

Full disclaimer..... I own a pair of jeans, which I once wore to church ![]() OK.... The fashion question. The question Christians should ask before wearing any clothes is whether they are glorifying God or.self.And yes, you can glorify self by dressing in sensible clothing.... (because nothing says I am a better Christian than you are in a sober black suit, or deeper life dress). If you are out to glorify self, if you are out to look good, if your motive is not to glorify Christ, don't wear that piece of clothing.....whether shredded jeans or sober black suit. Or deeper life style.. That said, most churches have a dress code... because some weak Christians may see a worldly dressed Christian, and think that they are free to do all the things that come with the worldly lifestyle. And if wearing jeans will cause my weaker sister to.stumble.....then I better not wear jeans. As my responsibly as a sempai to my kohais in the church (animespeak ![]() Still, in your dressing, let your aim be Christ glorified. Not self glorified.... Whether jeans or suit and shirt with tie, or long dress with shower cap a LA deeper life. (apologies to my brethren in deeper life. ![]() 5 Likes 1 Share |

I swear, I do not understand the logic behind people warring torn jeans. Like are they insane? Religion asides, does it make sense? Unfortunately that's the situation on ground now. Lots of people dragging titles with the bonafide lunatics in the name of fashion 2 Likes |

It's prophecies Most High said you people will wear rags Isaiah 3:24 KJVS And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; and burning instead of beauty. To understand rent here is scriptures Isaiah 36:22 KJVS Then came Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, that was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh. 1 Like |

OP , even if its not a sin, can you sincerely not see anything wrong with those nonsense you call fashion? THe church is a hospital for broken people, and that is why we shouldn't push the saggers and torn jeans wearers away, but to say it should be a normal way of life, you need a shrink. 1 Like |
