- Girl! We have a lot to cover today!
In the episode, we are talking all about modesty, what does the bible say about how we should dress, and more importantly, how we as Christian women should dress?
This topic came about when someone on Instagram criticized my outfit by implying that what I had on was inappropriate by referencing the scripture 1 timothy 2:9-10.
As someone who dresses pretty modestly, I really wanted to debunk the myth that Christian women should not dress glamorously.

How to Dress as Christian Women | What does the Bible say about Modesty?
Hey Gorgeous Lady! Today we are talking all about how to dress fashionably and flawlessly as a Christian Woman! We can still be beautiful and Christian!
You should cover your knees
@@GodisGlamorous you should check your bible as it teaches that showing your thighs is to show your nakedness. Just the way you talk its clear your heart is more with the world than with Christ.
Your dress is questionable. And you can’t check in with yourself you have to keep checking in with Gods word. The Holy Spirit will teach you if you listen to him. You can’t trump scripture with scripture and that’s what you’re doing. Once God says dress modestly you can’t then come along and say that means in the church only. Propriety has to mean something else then because modesty has already been established. Gods wants your reverence no matter where you are. I don’t care if you are in Jamaica bikini and bathing suites and your naked sun dresses are a NO NO! Some man will see you and lust, it’s a gateway for masturbation and pornography. You don’t what to cause anymore to stumble. Your body is suppose to be for your husband eyes only. And scripture says what comes from your heart will manifest itself on the outside. So when your heart is filled with lust, ego and self preservation then you will dress just like what you’re saying the way you want to! God has told men if they look upon a woman and lust he’s committed adultery in his heart and here you come with your breast hips and thighs out making it that much harder. No we shouldn’t dress sexy unless we are at home with our husbands. We can be stylish and classy and not expose body parts or have on form fitting clothes that draw attention to ourselves. When you want to please God, it doesn’t matter what you want to wear but what God wants you to wear. The Bible says every man thinks he’s right in his own eyes. Sister, you are acting as a teacher and if you get this wrong and cause someone to stumble God is going to hold you to a greater accountability. You don’t want that! You quoted all the right scriptures but with the wrong motives and using them out of context. .You’re too busy trying to “clap back” and not seek Gods face on this issue. When I first got saved one of the first things God talked to me about was modesty. And I was, compared to my peers but he wanted more, he asked me what are you willing to give up for me. When you meet Jesus for real modesty won’t be “subjective” as you call but it will be crystal clear. Holiness doesn’t have a geographical area it’s a life style and without it no man will see God. No, God is not Glamorous he’s Holy! You’re being warned it’s up to you if you don’t listen… Go before God sister, ask him to open your eyes, ask the Holy Spirit to teach you, he will but you have to get out of your own way. Much Love
@@niecybaby1960 Indeed
As a single guy i think it's important to define what holiness and what it means to be modest
I think that we should represent our faith either way regardless of being in church or not
Agreed. I mentioned that in the video ♥️
Yes my dear
Facts💯

So true.
‘My wife says it best. If your clothes are a frame for your face, it’s beauty. But if it’s a frame for your body, it’s sensuality.’ - Paul Washer
The Holy Spirit will definitely let us know if we are wearing an inappropriate clothing…He will convict and let us know.
True 😊🙌🏽
Shiela Yazzie, yes he will.... but if we're listening to 'the world' we're not going to hear the Holy Spirits whisper.
Well I guess either the Holy Spirit isn't telling everyone, or some people are just not listening. Some people just don't take dressing up for mass very seriously.
So true!
Decency in dressing is what the bible is talking about and not the fashion aspect.
So true!!
💯
I look in that mirror child. If stuff that shouldn't be showing is..well!! You already know. My chunky tail be trying to cover up periodt.
The later thing she said about dressing to get attention. We all know what that is to dress to look sezy. So..take another look in that mirror. The Holy Spirit will convict you. When you k ow the prize you are..you cover and keep yourself special for that special one..husband. You don't want folks eyes looking and lasting nor do you want folk touching on you. All that is lust and lasciviousness that leads to sin.
💯
It is wrong to say that verse is referring to church dressing. Being a Christian does not end in church, but actually starts when you leave the church.
Your dressing should reflect modesty everywhere.
Thanks!
Also in the church really refers to those who are believers. In early church days, the church was simply a group of believers who would often meet in basements, roof tops, etc. So dressing in the church doesn't exclude yourself to only Sunday mornings.
You're right about one thing. You can make the Bible say whatever you want it to say. I used to make similar arguments as you would because my spirit loved seeing pleasures of sexy, cute, beautiful ladies, to gratify myself. This selfish nature is wrong. One spirit wants to take the clothes off and get a feeling of excitement by showing off, while another desires repentance of self that Christ might be glorified. Jesus could have showed off, but instead He came to earth in a manger. He could have been glamourous as the King of Kings, and many Jewish people expected Him to come glamorously, but He didn't. The Bible says there was no beauty that we should desire Him. Be careful next time you pray to be like Jesus for there was no reason to like Him for beauty. John said, I must decrease that He might increase. We should do the same. When earth's lights are shining so bright, it's so hard to see the stars in heaven let alone the bright and morning star. How will people see the star of David, when there's so much light pollution of earthly bodies. Yes, in the last days, God's people will shine. But God's Kingdom is within people. Satan's Kingdom is without. The Pharisees were the one's with the glamourous robes and garments but not Jesus and His fishermen disciples. Cain was the one who offered a beautiful sacrifice and was rejected. Able offered a bloody lamb. "While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal."
2 Corinthians 4:18
Desiring such temporal things such as beauty the Bible says is vain. Beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord shall be praised.
Outward beauty gets men to worship and idolize women. ruclips.net/video/aelFOu_dNw0/видео.html
This Idolization is against the first commandment. "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." The spirit of the world is pulling women to shine their bodies, the other spirit is pulling women to shine Jesus in word and deed from their hearts. "For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting." Ephesians 5:8
Seeing a beautiful woman's body is wow, there's no argument about her body's sexiness for she can bring down many mighty men. "And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart." "For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her." It would make you sick to see what men think and do to themselves looking at women. It wouldn't be a temptation if it wasn't tempting. It's highly tempting. It's powerful to control men. It may please the whole church, and the whole church could be given over to lasciviousness. We might selfishly like near nakedness to enjoy it's pleasures for a season. But this vanity can not satisfy. I could look and look and stare, and desire more flesh to look at, and want to show off more and more and get other people to show off more and more, but it leaves people in depression because it's vain. The beauty of a Godly woman is her spirit. God's Holy Spirit really does satisfy till you'll have no need for the fleshly things of sexy, cute showy clothes. You'll stop thinking such a vain thing is worth elevating and glamorizing, and idolizing. Instead, you'll cover decently so that the focus is drawn to a Godly spirit, to Godly wisdom, to Godly humility, to Godly charity. By hiding the outward, the inward can shine, but if the outward shines, then the crowed will come to see the outward, and not the inward wisdom that is so often despised. "Then said I, Wisdom is better than strength: nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard." Ecclesiastes 9:16
God help us all
Wow. Thank you for sharing such wisdom and allowing the Holy Spirit to speak through you. I pray this message gets spread to more people.
So I can't care about how I look on the outside because I'm a Christian woman. Noted.
@@nisamae2 I'm sorry, that's not what I meant. Shining like the sun will put the focus on us; the people will worship and like us for our looks, and then when someone else shines brighter, they'll forget us and move on. The end of beauty is depressing. If that is where our treasure is, then we're setting ourselves up for disappointment. What we care about and where we ought to spend our time says a lot about our worship.
I missed saying this: If we glow like the moon and reflect the Son of God; the worship and focus will have people glorifying God rather than ourselves. They'll say we're a real Christian, a sweet soul, a loving heart. A sexy body won't be in those compliments. The outward won't be the main focus of compliments but rather our heart. Wouldn't we rather be validated for our good character and honorable nature, than for people to only see our worth in our looks and body?
People do validate us due to looks. But God looks deeper. Jacob loved Rachel for her beauty, but Jesus's linage came through Leah, the ugly lady who sought God rather than beauty. Rachel had idols that she worshiped, Leah had God. Rachel had 2 sons, while Leah had 7. It'd be better to care about God first and beauty last. For God promises all these other things will be added unto us like (pretty clothes, food, riches, honor) Mat 6:33
Because Solomon cared most about wisdom for to judge God's people, God added all those other things to him, until a flower is compared to Solomon for all the beauty God gave him. Mat 6:29
Love God till we don't exalt outward beauty, and God will give us inward beauty, maybe even outwardly too, but care about beauty until we don't care about God, and God will take away the beauty that we think we have.
Outward beauty can give us pride; how then can we increase humility by more outward beauty? Taking the lowest seat, and letting the master exalt us according to His will in the eyes of others with fear of pride should be our principle with beauty, riches, and worldly possessions, talents, gifts. Yet if any of these things give us pride, then little is better than much.
The moon glows in the night. Sometimes it's colorful, big and orange. On occasions it's blue and beautiful like a rare rose. But it lets us see all the other stars in the night too. It doesn't boast of itself. Yet it reflects a glow of the Sun like the joy of Christ written on a smile. "It clothes itself with humility" 1 Peter 5:5 And it's validation is from the Sun.
Totally agreed.
@@nisamae2 you need to care how you look outside for all the reasons pointed out by the brother.
Inside or outside the church, a woman must be modest.
I'm a woman
I am a baby Christian and this is really helpful.Christians can be the most judgmental people who are supposed to be your brothers and sisters, but I have seen that they are the ones that fight among each other over little things instead of coming together and lifting each other up. We better wake up y'all and come together instead of putting other Christians down. It's sickening. I love clothing and this is definitely something I have been judged for by other sisters.
For your second point, the church is the people; the body of Christ, therefore, if you should dress a certain way for church then you should dress that way all of the time become you are always in church because you ARE the church. Also, in the bible the women of God all dress pretty much the same, so there's nowhere that dressing fashionable appears in the bible.
So is being fashionable a sin?
@@nisamae2 if the fashion goes against the word of God , of course
@@nisamae2 no its not necessarily a sin sis, but what is a sin is causing another person to stumble/sin.
@@nisamae2 Not necessarily a sin. However our bodies should be covered at all times. Remember 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 "what? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." This scripture means that our bodies are more important than you think. We can dress nicely or fashionable But remember that your body is not only yours but it is your future spouse's and God's.
The bible says dont conform to the fashion of this world, you are not of the world. dress modestly with simplicity, dress holily (Romans 12:1-2).
Lol, listen to that man ma'am. You're tryna make the Bible fit your standards not God's. Listen to that man
👍
Amen!
Agree
I picked that up as soon as she said she was searching the scriptures to debunk the issue. Not for understanding it further.
Agree
You look like a nice woman who is getting to know God. I feel your not ready to teach yet because you still have. A lot to learn. But do not give up, people can be mean. Pray to god every time you have a question he will answer to you.
When you dress you have to ask... I am dress pretty or lustful? Would i be able to wear this in church? Can you see anything? Am i fully dressed-with kindnesses,mercy,forgiveness??
Praying for you.May God bless you.
I love this video! This is so true. Being Christian doesn’t mean we should dress ugly.
Yes, girl! Exactly! ♥️
Exactly and people think 💭 we are supposed to
Matthew 6:25. Check it out.
Didnt Mary peace be Upon her dress modestly?
Yeah. There's so many people who show up for mass wearing very casual clothes.
You are beautiful sis but the scriptures do not teach that God wants us to be glamorous. Yes wear things that make you look amd feel beautiful but Modesty means wearing clothing that doesn't allow people to see your body shape and too much skin.If you're a Christian you are a Christian all the time. You are the church so location doesn't matter.
I agree with everything you said ...except " God doesn't wants us to be glamorous." Because iam looking at your picture and you look very glamorous and i say this in a nice way.
I think it our definition of what glamorous mean. Some people think is dressing out like if your going to a club, others think is dressing like a stripper, other think dressing like a pop star. Othr thin dressing semi modest is. Its like the definition of love. Somepeople think its infatuation other lust . we have to change the way our mind think.
To me dressing dressing modest is also glamorous.
I hope you understand what i am trying to say.
I think there has to be a good balance. Esther made her own garments and looked royal. Esther was a good example of what modesty is.
I think we need to think about WHY we wear what we wear.
Ultimately we should dress and present ourselves in a way that represents humility and modesty.
If we dress a certain way that accentuates our bodies because we want the attention and want people to think we look nice BECAUSE of what we wear, I don’t think that’s right.
We should make ourselves attractive by the good things we do.
“And I want woman to be modest in their appearance. They should wear decent and appropriate clothing and not draw attention to themselves by the way they fix their hair or by wearing gold or pearls or expensive clothes. For woman who claim to be devoted to God should make themselves attractive by the good things they do.” 1 Timothy 2:9-10
I doubt anyone will see this because it’s not a new video but I can finally use some of my theology degree to maybe give some better points of clapping back.
1. Paul’s letters are written to churches and that’s why they start out with a greeting to that church. Timothy was at Ephesus and at this time this church was dealing with false teachers and prophets coming from Aphrodite‘s temple which could only be female. This is why much of first and second Timothy is focused around things women can and cannot do.
2. Make up, braiding of hair and golden jewelry at this time was seen adorning Aphrodite‘s priestesses and prostitutes. So as people of God we are called to not be up this world and Paul was telling the church at this time not to look like those non-Christians
3. Modesty is a personal decision and journey for each person. It won’t look the same for every single one and that’s why there’s no defining limits on what modesty truly is within the New Testament because God knew it would be a journey with the Holy Spirit
4. I would tell this guy to look at the plank within his own eye before trying to pull the spec out of mine because when men comment on other peoples holy spirit lead journey of modesty I think it comes out of their lack of self-control and restraint of dealing with lust and not working on their own journey with the Holy Spirit. Jesus Said to pluck out your own eyes if you look at other women lustfully but we in the western church have forgotten that and placed this burden of men lacking self control on us when God clearly placed on man.
5. Finally when reading the Bible it’s important to understand historical context language differences and the years and years and years of translation and lost manuscripts that have gone into the current scripture that we have which can leave a truly surface level understanding of what God called Christians to be
I agree. People don’t look at the Bible In it’s context especially in term of the culture at the time.
NO. Twisting of the scriptures here. I agree with that man. We must crucify these flesh desires. Smh... This is wrong
Guys as Christian people god speaks to us in many different ways, and you guys should know if we are doing something wrong or dressing wrong god would speak to us and tell us to stop, he gave us free will and a mind of our own, if something was wrong with what she was wearing or the way how she thinks he would’ve certainly spoke to her and tell her to correct her mistakes, every one has different views and opinions on things, don’t ever let someone’s opinion bring you down. She’s not purposely dressing to attract men or causing them to lust unlike some people do. A true man knows his limits and has respect for himself and women and wouldn’t cause them no harm. Guys please stop sexualizing these Christian women and telling them what they’re wearing is inappropriate when what she was wearing was totally fine, a woman can be fully clothed and a man would still want to lust at her. I don’t dress inappropriately but it just annoys me whenever someone tries to bring a woman down and make her feel bad, we aren’t god and he is our only judge. So tired of seeing or hearing you’re going to hell for wearing that or you’re not a woman of god how can you dress like that.
AMEN! Preach it, SIS!
@@GodisGlamorous You looked stunning in that dress, and idk why he was looking at you like that in the first place, people really need to control thoughts like that because nothing was wrong with that dress and also you know who you are and you know your self worth and your devotion to our Heavenly Father. No one can tell you about yourself when you know who you truly are. Have a blessed day💙
@@geneivalozano Thanks girl! I don't understand it sometimes but God always works it out for good. Because of the critic, I made this video and this video has been my most popular one. Look at God!! lol
@@GodisGlamorous No problem, and this was the type of video I was looking for, it was great and it helped me out a lot.
@@geneivalozano I'm so happy to hear that
You know, we must be very careful. I humbly and boldly encourage women of God to be very careful as a Christian woman you walk in the Spirit and not the flesh. He does not change or compromise His standards of HOLINESS and neither should you ladies. Don't gamble with truth. Study the word to show yourselves approved and ask the Spirit of God to show you how to adorn your temple. I say this in love.
My mother in law recently told me that I will eventually “stop dressing like a man” and that she “used to dress like a man as well”. I dress incredibly modest, I wear pants, sweaters, long sleeve tops, etc. she also told me that I should stop wearing makeup :). She’s a Christian and goes to an apostolic assembly. They wear veils, long skirts, etc. I suppose , according to her, because I don’t dress like that I’m not worthy of being a Christian woman. So much wrong with that situation and I sought counsel through church leadership. Thank God I know Jesus and He knows my heart. That was a fun day!
I don't know why dressing trousers is regarded dressing as man ; cos we put on ladies trousers not guys......
Just remind your Mom in Law that your covering and instruction is between you, God and your husband. Thank her and you will chat the topic up with your husband to confirm he is supportive of your attire.
Scripture to prove that God wants me "glamorous, stylish, and sexy" (2:40) as you stated? Also, I don't want to dress one way in church and not carry the same modesty out into the world. Christian modesty is an issue that I still grapple with; thank you for your platform!
She didn't say sexy
Nope, God doesn't want any of those for you sister. That's what the world wants and what the world told you you want. Trying to hold on to worldly standard and worship God TRULY is how scripture gets taken out of context and people get led astray. God's word doesn't conform to us it makes us conform to it.
Did you receive the scripture, you were looking for cause I’d like to know it as well. I understand the point about the Proverbs 31 woman being dressed in fine linen but that doesn’t mean she dressed fashionably. It just states the material and the color that she wears…
You are deceiving the young ladies, my sister why fight against the scripture... careful what you are doing repent... all praises to the most high Lord God of hosts🙏🙏🙏
This beautiful women is confused.
Thank you so much for your video !! It has helped me realize I need to reevaluate what I wear. That I used to wear clothes to please the opposite gender and show my figure more. But I want to wear things that make me feel comfortable and confident but don’t allow men to stumble
As a Muslim it's quite shocking to see how many Christian women don't actually follow their religion. Where there is a verse in the Bible that is crystal clear on women's modesty they sort of change what it means and brush it aside and put the arguement of it matters what's inside. I mean you've only got to look at how most women dressed a couple years back and see most were modestly dressed. Also I'm not too sure what Christianity says about mens modesty but in Islam it's not only women who must observe modesty but men too for example men can't look at random women let alone touch them. And many more laws which prevent any sort of immoral actions and keep society safe.
Free will is this called in the Bible.
Our God isn't a miserable God, he wants what's best for us and he wants us to be happy and he wants us to reflect his love for us 💕
In his plan on his way ❤️❤️🙏
Your outward appearance is the true reflection of your inner.
AMEN! Absolutely!!
Yes. Says the homeless men
That’s a lie you can look like the most modest women in the world and be the biggest snake
@@Moomsta420 Right. Outward appearance can be deceiving.. Serial killers look like family men and church going people but …
@Moomsta420. New wine can not be put into an old wine bottle. It will burst. If you are a wolf in a sheep skin, it will definitely manifest. You can not pretend forever.
A true Christian can not just put anything on and feels ok like an unbeliever.
Just 2 mins in & the vocabulary your using doesn’t seem to be very Godly (“living my best life”, “clap back”, “came at me”). If a man of God is critiquing you on your wardrobe pray about it. Don’t get offended. You may think it’s appropriate but you can be a stumbling block for our brothers in Christ.
And I agree, if a man of God corrects you as a woman, you should submit to Him especially if He is using Scripture. Women should never have authority over a man in the body of Christ. She is seeing the “church” as a physical place instead of understanding the church is inside you, you are the church.
I agree wholeheartedly. I felt she was being defensive.
The photo of her and her sister wearing tight fitting dresses was inappropriate.
I was out of church for a while when I was younger not because of the word “clap back and “came at me” ect. But because of people like you that judge others by the way they speak and dress, God is working on people in different ways, leave his people alone and let him clean them up.
@@lusa7222 thank you
I dress very modestly I wear long skirts over leggings and I find my boyfriend lusts after me even more when dressed modestly. Different men react differently some are turned off by too much flesh being on display. So there is no way to truly dress to avoid a man lusting after you.
"Modest is hottest " I've heard this before.
"Modest is hottest " I've heard this before.
I think it depends on how modestly you dress. Tight clothing (even if it covers your whole body) can attract lust. Short clothing(anything above the knees)can most definitely attract lust. That's why personally I would prefer more looser clothing something that doesn't shape up your body because anything that may shape up your body in a certain way that may reveal your body can't be considered modesty.
@@MooNLight21400 so what happens if she does this and he still lust? The issue isn’t her and was never her, it’s her man’s lack of self control. He has a problem not her tights.
@@dreajenay 🤡
Thank you for this as a young Christian who also leads worship at a bigger church it’s almost impossible to not get complaints... so I’m trying to still dress like me with style but also always pleasing God
You’re welcome beautiful! Just continue to wear things that you know that God will look down on you and smile ♥️
Hhj
Whew this is soooo good! You will always have your naysayers but God knows your heart and everybody will not be pleased but it’s not about them it’s about God. You did amazing breaking this down! 👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks you boo! ♥️
Question my sister, modesty, is it for God or man that The Lord asked this of us!
Please be wise in your answer, don't be haste, ask the holy spirit!
Is God asking us, His daughters, to dress a certain way for Him or for man's sake!!!!!! Mostly His sons?
glamour means alluring , illusionary attractiveness. I doubt God wants His daughters to be alluring. He wants us to be Holy because He is Holy.
Fashion has nothing to do with what modesty is. We don’t have to look frumpy but following the world’s standards will lead to destruction.
Well said
Modesty is a matter of the heart and intention
Modesty isn't about fashion. It's to protect women and men from inciting lust.
Yes. I totally agree. We should not worry too much on how the outside looks. Being " glamorous" is almost like being proud. God does not like pride. But that's just my opinion. She is a beautiful women. God deals with all of us differently.
No no Your all wrong. Your not looking at the word of God through spiritual eyes your looking at the word of God through fleshly eyes and a fleshly heart.
You might be looking at it legalistically and religiously.
@@larose2214 thank you!!!!
Hey sis, you look gorgeous! 😊 I would say: I’ve learned along my journey with The Lord that no matter what environment a Christian woman is in, she should always attempt to dress modestly - this is determined by the fact that we are representing The Kingdom (as you rightly said) and we are part of a Royal Priesthood and a Holy Nation. The choice to show less skin is also about our commitment to Christ and honouring Him (and our husbands, if we’re married) not so much the environment - that’s almost irrelevant. Modesty begins in the heart and is a posture that we take on as Royal Daughters of Abba through the help of the beloved Holy Spirit. I like some of the points you made though. I love the Scripture references 💜🌸
I am sorry, i think you may be misunderstood. For example back in the time the women of the "world" would braid their hair and put flowers and things in their hair to beautiful and have people see how beautiful they are in vanity. So now days woman braiding there hair is not as popular. What he is saying is Christians are not supposed go around trying to look like the people of the "world" for example; makeup, cutting your hair, dressing lustful, men with there shorts on, earrings, trying to look like the movie stars..... Christians are supposed to be set apart from the World, you should be able to identify a christian walking down the street, saying " wow that person seems so different, i wonder what they have that i dont". God Bless you
People will know you are different by your actions and not by the way you look.
Otherwise, it would only be women that you would be able to set apart from this world. Because men look exactly the same. Men dont have all the restrictions a woman does.
Modesty can be beautiful. Stylish should not eliminate modesty.
The royals of this world don't dress immodestly, yet they are classy and stylish. Why can't Christian women who are eternal royals dress modestly. Modesty does not eliminate stylishness.
1. After reading some of the comments I can tell some of you didn’t watch the full video.
2. I learned I need to strive more for pleasing the Lord with what I wear. Simple, ask the Lord!
Honestly, the more skin that is covered up the better for women. However if a woman is going out with her husband then she can wear what she wants, but not when he is not there. A women can dress modesty and still look presentable.
You are willing to compromise a little to feel the way you like and look good for the world too. Neither of those truly honor God though. Keep seeking God and he'll mold you into a virtuous woman.
This was so great! Thank you for validating every Christian woman out there. I love to dress well and feel happy when I do and don't like when religious people feel they need to force their opinions to change our iconography. Thank you for validating us women who love Jesus and love to dress well. ❤
Amen! A part two is coming soon
I wish I knew more women like you...I barely meet any women with your mentality...Even most Christian women I know would step out the house barely dressed. By the way I love ya channel. Be safe Love...
Aww thank you so much, Jody! I really appreciate the kind words ♥️
If you’re searching for modesty content with spiritual conviction check out Bindi Marc, I think this woman is twisting the word of God to justify her actions. Be ye in the world but not OF the world.
Omg...you're literally just interpreting the verses how you feel. Stop misleading these innocent Christians!
No one is forcing you to watch her videos. And no she is not misleading Christians.
We all have the capability to think for our selves and research what is true and untrue. She is here creating content to uplift women and share her religious perspective and implement Christian verses that have helped her during her journey.
kindness and love can go a long way... if you disagreed with her you didn’t have to approach her in such a rude way.
Also can you interpret the verses she shared ? Comment below and educate us on your knowledge of the bible .
So rude and unnecessary.
@@jessicalove7270 how was she rude and unnecessary when she was just sharing her religious opinion, just like the RUclipsr?
Also, you’re right a lot of Christians have brains to use for themselves but you forget that a lot of Christian’s don’t actually read the scriptures for themselves or take the time to study and understand what it’s saying. In fact, I’ve seen it where a lot of people only read/study the Bible for debate which leads to them only picking and choosing scripture that aligns with what they already believe.
Thank you for showing me what it means to be modest and still have nice things at the same time. But more than anything you thought me it dose not matter what's on the out side it matters what's on the inside.
Thank you for posting this! I think a sister in Christ at my bible study is trying to drop hints that I should dress more modestly. But I just think it's a bit hypocritical because why is it ok for one to wear skin tight skinny jeans that show your every curve verses me wanting to wear pretty flowy summer dresses? Why is one viewed as more modest than the other?
Totally agree. There is no set standard for modesty, you will just need to pray and ask God to convict you. Btw, I LOVE summer dresses :)
@@GodisGlamorous Thank you for replying. God bless you 🕊 xx
It sounds like you're the one who's dressed appropriately and she's the one who isn't. Have you ever pointed it out to her?
Why would I want to look fashionable though?
U seriously deserve more subscribers , may god bless u ❤️
Awww! They're coming in God's perfect timing. Thank you, sis
I understand God wants his daughters to be beautiful. But I can't agree with sexy. Being sexy is associated with lust and sex.
Feeling Sexy is okay in its proper time. One of the first commandments that God gave us was to be fruitful and multiply. How are we supposed to be produce any babies if we never feel sexy?
Sex is not the problem. The improper use of sex is the problem.
“Sexy” can have different meanings to different people. You can feel sexy and beautiful and be fully clothed and modest. It’s a heart issue. Feeling “Sexy” is not always associated with lust.
I also didn’t say “God wants his daughter to be sexy” I said “feel sexy” but I should have gone deeper to note that this only applies within it’s proper context.
Please watch part two of my video to see what I mean. ♥️
@@GodisGlamorous I can't agree with that. What I will say is we might want to be mindful of how we throw words out there without really understanding the definition. What I mean is the actual meaning and not how we might actually use it for ourselves. Now also I will say it's honestly not about us but what will other people be hearing when we say certain things. When I look up that word sexy it really means erotic and pretty much sex. But I'm not trying to make a big deal but for me I am a little mindful of saying the word sexy but I don't really think you were trying to mean it in a sexual way but we have to think about many people that when they actually to dress they actually want to look sexy and sexually appealing to men and men to women and that's not what God wants from us so thats why I was saying this. Many people don't see the difference. I talk to a lot of women and many say they want to look sexy because they want to turn on and attract men so yes it is the wrong mindset because now it's lust. I just wanted to brake down what I meant. Thank you for responding and I hope I made a little sense in what I was saying.
@@shunterrielsimpson11 yes, I understand. In my 2nd video, I mentioned that I should have used the word “feminine” and I will not use that word again.
@@GodisGlamorous I appreciate you for understanding. I'm not here to win an argument or get someone to agree with me. Let's be clear. We can still agree to disagree if we can't come to the same understanding and still be loving. I just wanted to add that. I know we all have our convictions. I myself have had to hear from God myself on the messages I send when I dress. Thank you for this video. New sub and hope to have great dialogue in the future. This is my first video I saw of yours so I haven't had a chance to watch that video yet. But I will be looking forward to watching you in the future. Sisters in Christ ❤️ God bless.
@@shunterrielsimpson11 thanks Sis ♥️
The commentary about how an "attractive woman" is dressed when we talk about dressing for modesty refers to showing bare skin and the shape of the body for all to see. Before the covid-19 pandemic, I would regularly see young women dressed in ways that are extremely similar to street walkers! Modest dress from a godly perspective is being fully covered not showing off the shape of the body which would be considered "sexy". Should a woman or a man display their beauty for the world or only for their spouse and family members? (meaning husband for his wife and wife for her husband). There's a distinct difference between dressing sexy vs. dressing with modesty in mind. "Flaunt/shake what your momma gave you" was a saying many girls and women I knew growing up embraced with glee. As a man I see modest dress for men and women as covering the shape of the body as to avoid appearing to advertise and promote sexual desire. A sophisticate woman can be sexy and attractive without showing her skin and shape with intention, thus the man she marries is looking more at her spiritual beliefs and personality instead of how "thick" she is or how beautiful she looks. Beauty then becomes the sub-category of what he sees after seeing her heart. [Br. Abdul]
Yes and Amen!!!!!
It is indeed hard for many to understand this, maybe not because they don't love God, I think because there are things like this in the world they are not ready to give up. Many women believe they need to impress men to continue feeling confident about themselves, or they need the validation of men to feel pretty, and or sexy! The validation of God and what He wants should be our only desire yeah?
Does this mean beautiful women should cover their faces too? Since you started that curvy women should wear large clothes that don't outline Their shape
@@jeshurundaniel794 Shape of their body such as hips and thighs which are close to private parts.
How does God want women to be glamorous? Scripture please? We should point to Jesus not glamour & fashion.
Hello,
There are several scriptures throughout the bible that displays how God honors a clean and neat appearance.
Before Esther met King Xerses, she spent an entire year receiving beauty treatment.
The regular beauty treatment for the women lasted a year - massages with oil of myrrh for six months and with oil of balsam for six more. After that, each woman would be taken in turn to King Xerxes. - Esther 2:12
Before Jospeh went before Pharaoh, he made sure he was neatly dressed and cleaned up.
Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him
quickly out of the dungeon; and he shaved, changed his
clothing, and came to Pharaoh. - Genesis 41:14
The Proverbs 31 Woman wears Fine Linen and Purple
She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple. - Proverbs 31:22
If you look good, you feel good, and when you feel good, people will be drawn to you. When people are drawn to you, you have a greater chance at leading them to Christ.
Ultimately, whatever causes us to feel our best, I believe that is what God desires for us.
Please let me know if you have any more questions.
@@GodisGlamorous 1 Timothy 2:9-10
9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.What kind of beauty did Esther have? It was not make up, she was ‘’beautiful of form and face’’(Esther 2:7).Beauty is considered vain(proverbs 31:30).It’s also used to “capture’’ or “take captive” the hearts of men as described in Testament of Ruben 2: 15 (“..and in their heart they plot against men; and by means of their adornment they deceive first their minds, and by the glance of the eye instil the poison, and then through the accomplished act they take them captive”).
Proverbs 6:25
Make up is the adorning of a prostitutes in the biblical context, which Leviticus 19: 29 forbids women from imitating
Leviticus 19: 29
“‘Do not degrade your daughter by making her a prostitute, or the land will turn to prostitution and be filled with wickedness.’’
Ezekiel 23:40
“And furthermore, that ye have sent for men to come from far, unto whom a messenger was sent; and, lo, they came: for whom thou didst wash thyself, paintedst thy eyes, and deckedst thyself with ornaments,”
"So I will put an end to lewdness in the land, that all women may take warning and not imitate you”-Ezekiel 23:48
What did the women do that God didn’t want other women imitating in
Ezekiel 23:48? It’s mentioned in Ezekiel 23:40 that they “applied eye makeup and put on your jewelry.” and in verse 42 “and they put bracelets on the wrists of the woman and her sister and beautiful crowns on their heads.”
“Then I said about the one worn out by adultery, 'Now let them use her as a prostitute, for that is all she is.” Notice there are two different sins mentioned: 1.) sensuality (lewdness) 2.) adultery
Make up etc is a form of sensuality(defined as “A preoccupation with the body and satisfaction of its desires”)
which are works of the flesh.
Romans 13:13
Let us behave properly as in the day, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and sensuality, not in strife and jealousy
Philippians 3:19
whose fate is destruction, whose god is their belly [their worldly appetite, their sensuality, their vanity], and whose glory is in their shame-who focus their mind on earthly and temporal things.
2 Peter 2:18
For speaking out arrogant words of vanity they entice by fleshly desires, by sensuality, those who barely escape from the ones who live in error
Do not desire her beauty in your heart,
Nor let her capture you with her eyelids.
Make up is basically is basically a lower level form of witchcraft;example is Testament of Ruben 2: 14 (“And whom they cannot bewitch by outward attractions, him they overcome by craft.”)
Make up is considered a “wile”(device) used by women; example is Testament of Ruben 2:13 “For evil are women, my children; and since they have
no power or strength over man, they use wiles by outward attractions, that they may draw him to themselves.”
Psalms of Solomon 16:6-8
6 Remove not Thy mercy from me, O God, Nor Thy memorial from my heart until I die. 7 Rule me, O God, (keeping me back) from wicked sin, And from every wicked woman that causeth the simple to stumble. 8 And let not the beauty of a lawless woman beguile me, Nor any one that is subject to (?) unprofitable sin. 9
2 Peter 2:18
For speaking out arrogant words of vanity they entice by fleshly desires, by sensuality, those who barely escape from the ones who live in error
Christians:Jesus "fulfilled the law" so the Old Testament things about Sabbath observance, dietary laws, clothing laws, etc, etc don't apply to us anymore. Jesus did away with all that and set us free from all that."
But Also Christians: " Christian women should dress fancy, and doll themselves up because in the Old Testament Queen Esther dressed fancy and dolled herself up."
Girl I just subscribed! Ik this is an old video but there are people saying heels, make up, pants, hair extensions, jewelry, hair dye, etc are immodest. And I literally pulled out the dictionary on them. The Holy Spirit will convict you too. People literally can become religious instead of spiritual and begin making up rules to police people instead living in the freedom that Jesus died for.
I ask that when you are choosing what you wear you think about your brothers in Christ. We are a little different than you women in that most of struggle with lust of the eyes. It is very hard to resist that temptation. We need the help of our sisters in Christ. Read 1 Corinthians chapter 8. Focus on verse 9. You have the liberty to wear what you want but please don’t allow that liberty to become a stumbling-block for fellow believers. Just my two cents.
Men are not visual ..men are physical .
Once again the woman is getting blamed for the man’s lack of self control.
No I'm afraid you are very wrong. That verse is talking about how we need to dress everyday NOT just in church. You're not understanding it in its proper context. I'd love to send you a few links to godly Biblically and doctrinally sound women who teach the text correctly.
The chapter is specifically titled “men and women in the church”. Please look it up.
Regardless, yes, the scripture still stands outside of the church. We are to dress modestly.
Not in Church. We are the Church.
Thank you for this! I love dressing in a vintage 50’s style. It’s all I wear. But lately I’ve been asking myself if it’s ok with God. I don’t show my body, I keep all cleavage covered and my skirts are never tight or above my knees. I wear my skirts/dresses like that as a style preference because I love a Christian Dior New Look fluffy skirt. But I worry that because I stand out that God would not like that. I’m not looking for attention, this is just what I like. It’s nice to see a beautiful glamorous woman who is also Godly. I still have many questions, but this helped me so much to see a bit more clearly on what may be right or wrong in how I dress. Thanks again!
I am so glad I found you on RUclips I am trying to be a new born Christian but I do love fashion and style and feeling and looking good👌.
Go to God in prayer and read the word of God. Do not believe every RUclipsr because that's what you want to hear. What you want to hear is different from what God is saying
Dr.Michelle recommend your video and now I am watching all of them. I love your message and appreciate your experience and perspective on this topic. Many of us come from diverse cultures and may misunderstand the meaning and message you shared with us. I want to stress the importance to learn from a diversity perspective lens because we all come from different cultures. I love learning about new religions and how beautifully you speak of God. Xoxo 💕🙏🏻
Wow!! Thank you so much! Where did you share? I would love to thank her for that.
God bless you Sis. Thank you for the kind words.
@@GodisGlamorous hey beautiful! You can find her channel it’s Dr. Michelle Daf
@@jessicalove7270 Thank you Jessica!!!
What about in Corinthians where it commands Christian women to cover their hair??
WE SHOULD WHEN PRAYING AND IN CHURCH. BUT IF YOU WANT TO VIEL 24/7 NO PROBLEM BUT IT IS NOT COMPULSERY
Why don't you give us references from the context of the verses?
And you’re right. God is *very* clear in
His commands. If He wanted to forbid
The wearing of gold and pearls, He will
say “do not wear pearls”. Just like He
said “do not eat The meat of pig” and
“Do not drink blood” and “do not eat
carcass”. These are *clear* . You’re
right regarding The wearing of pearls
is permissible just don’t rely on them.
Amen. If God specifically forbids something, He will let us know.
@@GodisGlamorous just that
Amin Ra is not mY God. My
God is The God, whom you
Christians refer to as “Father”.
I do not accept any other than
He as mY Lord, Guide, & Savior
Please rethink on your RUclips name. God is many things, but where does it say in the Bible that “God is Gorgeous”? We shouldn’t make things up especially when having His name included, please read what God says about that.
I thought so too
No where in the bible does it say that... But i think God is the most gorgeous and glamorous from the whole word. Idk if by appearance but i know Through the way he is.
What is wrong with gorgeous? It’s another word for beautiful.
@@c45177 Has she changed the name? As I am reading today it's God is Glamorous. And Glamorous, well that means creating a false appearance or illusion. That's why the early Hollywood actresses we're called Glamour Girls, because they were all painted and fixed up..it was all fake. God is definitely not fake, and we shouldn't be either 😉. Was her title before God is Gorgeous?
The spirit of religion or the law kills, the spirit brings life! I think you have excellent points and I completely agree with you!
Love how you broke this down.🙏🏾
I love this thank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️ this was much needed
Thank you, Tua!! I am so glad this video helped you!!
I suggest you read 1 Corinthians 6
God wants us to dress modest all the time not just in church
We don't have to be beautiful as we're already beautiful because God created us in his image and he already knows that we are beautiful. What i wanna say about short dress is that_ wearing short dress is not a bad but wearing short dresses with wrong motives is bad and I wanna confess this that Man should change their mentality TOWARDS women. I know it's hard to change but it's a huge challenge for them to overcome.
Well it's a great video
I use to dress like you when i wasn't Christian,but now that I came to Christ i dress totally different long dresses and i dont need makeup cuz my Lord made me beautiful with out makeup .and i wear dresses in Church and outside of church
I think women should be covered and dressed adorned in a way that shes not trying to gain attention from the opposite sex. Not to create sex appeal. Not to provoke people to LUST. (JESUS) loves you.
When you dont have makeup, when you dont have glamorous clothes and jewelry do you still feel beautiful and valuable? That's what I have to answer honestly. Are you making other Lust causing them to stumble? All the while walking around drawing attention to yourself instead of to God?
Amy B please explain. What you mean?
Out Of Darkness so is she going to hell for showing her shoulders? Serious question because let me tell you something I know people personally that dress just like the way you are taking about and they are some of the nastiest, most hateful, judgmental people you ever want to run into. I don’t see anything wrong with what she is wearing. Trust me luv dressing modest isn’t going to get you into heaven any faster.
He commands us to dress modestly, He also says whoever Loves me will keep my commands. I am not damning anyone to hell, simply trying to shed some light on what she is teaching women of God. Not one time does God say that we should feel sexy...in fact it talks about sensuality is wicked! 1 John 2:16
For all that is in the world-the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions-is not from the Father but is from the world.
@@user-gx5hf2fn9j Hypocrites are different from truly born again people. The Bible says by their fruits you shall know them. People that have hatred are not born again, people that dress immodestly also are not of God. They are on the same lane. It doesn't mean what Rikki Smith is saying is wrong.
Nope
There is also a context to what Paul is saying in Ephesians. We must remember that at the time, in Greece, women were adorning themselves like Cleopatra herself, and like so much of Hollywood today, to the point of putting their garments on display because they want to be idolised.
He is talking about using outer appearance to define your character, instead of finding your identity in God first. Adorn yourself first with Christ, and adorn the body just as an enjoyment of life, not seeking approval or admiration. There is nothing wrong with fine clothing, but there is something wrong with parading a brand logo for social status.
Has anyone told you, you look like Keri Hilson?
Just a woman trying to defend her sins, she has gone too deep to the ways of the world and can't let go.. It was like this with my fap addiction, when i couldn't stop i started making excuses but God has come for the rescue, now i know if you don't live for the lord you won't see fault living the ways of the world..
Hope you receive the holly spirit to guide you, there ain't a tample of God dressed like that, Nah..... Your dressing style shows your effort to show the world how your body looks like, it isn't glorious for God but it is for you.. Stop living for yourself and start living for the Lord Jesus Christ
That what she talking about sir worrying about yourself too
🗣Preach Keri Hilson 💯😃❤
HAHA! Thank you, my Love :)
I just knew it was her at first! lol
@@veebee9942 😝❤️😅
You read my mind! She looks like Keri hilson 😍😍
Listen to the holy sprit he will show you the right way to dress
We can dress well as godly women. Dressing with modesty is without conceit and vanity.
This is not how this lady in the video sounds or seems. The dress she was wearing in the photo with her sister was not appropriate. It’s something you wear when you want to be noticed.
If this lady is married I’m sure her husband wouldn’t want other men staring at his wife.
Right
GOD IS HOLY HOLY HOLY, LOVE, and JUST!!!
GOD IS NOT ANYTHING ELSE.
You are not open to opposing views. You also have a typically modern view of public presentation, not that of a godly Christian woman.
Exactly, she is leading people to twist the word of God to fit their own selfish, and vain glory.
James 3:1 says, “Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.”
I have trouble dressing in the summer because my body overheats and I get faint so I really can’t wear clothes that are as modest like long dresses and stuff. My skin needs to be out and have as much air as it can get. Not that i’m out here wearing something crazyyy revealing but it wouldn’t be considered as modest i’ll say that much. :/ I just get way too hot wearing too much
May lord bless you in every way today in Jesus name I pray amen hallelujah
Thank you so much, Mausam! ♥️
Dressing modesty if a good thing but as long as it is comfortable for that person.
Right
Well articulated Sister keep it up. Good word right here..
Glamorous and Modesty are oxymorons. Cannot have it both ways.
@Christina Woodard Modesty means being humble not proud.
I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENS ME
PHIL 4:13
John 1:1 in the beginning was the word, and the Word was God... wake up my sister stop being ignorant believe in the Bible obedient unto it...
Glamorous definition:
attractive or appealing in an exotic or exciting way.
"being a singer must be such a glamorous lifestyle"
(of a person) having a beauty or charm that is sexually attractive.
These really are the last days
As a Christian man I agree about everything spoken here.
Awesome video 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽! Thanks a lot for sharing this video ..
There was nothing wrong with your dress! I really believe that people only like to condemn Christian women that they find ATTRACTIVE when it comes to this modesty topic. A beautiful woman can wear a long sleeved turtle neck dress with combat boots, but because people find her attractive they want to find an issue with her. It’s even worse when you naturally have a shapely body. Men let their own fleshy desires and lust trip them up and other women are intimidated/jealousy. A lot of these lustful men and envious women will project these feelings on to other Christian women, deeming them “immodest” or “Jezebel-spirited”. It’s really all ignorance, misogyny, and legalism at its best. Sure modesty is important, but I also think it looks different for everyone. We can still be attractive and fashionable as Christian women and men.
I love that Amen 🙏🏼
First I really like your name! Now, I just want to give some food for thought. Since we are the temple of God and God never changes, wouldn't you think that if he wanted the tabernacle that was built in the old Testament to be glamorous he would want us to glamorous also?
By the way I believe God allowed that man to come at you like that to get you to dig deeper into the word. It was for your good and now you are helping other. Keep on giving God the glory in your life.
Everything depends in your heart ❤️.
Love not the world neither things are in the world, anyman love the world the love of the father that's not in him..
Show us how to dress for your next video please. Can we wear designer dresses,or normal dresses,high heels, jewelry ,make the hair, put on makeup and nail polish ,shorts,crop tops,short skirts,short dresses. ...etc.
No.
Nothing wrong with heels, jewelry, hair, nails but the short dresses and shorts aren’t a good look tbh. If you have short items wear solid leggings under them that match the color of the item or wear thick stockings underneath
I even ask the holy sprit in what to wear
I feel like it’s more of the idolization of these things that is the problem. Finding our identity in jewelry and clothes instead of Christ.. I used to wear so much jewelry and found my identity in it when I wasn’t in Christ! So I could see why God protects us from wearing those things. Either way, He will convict those that need it, always!
In the culture Paul wrote that in, braded hair, etc, was worn by pagan/homosexual, and Paul did not want the christian woman to be confused/mistaken with them. History. Culture.
Wow, beautiful natural hair
Very classy outfit
Modest and timeless
Hey there beautiful. So I was looking thru your videos and it looks like this one has had the most view. Probably because this topic is so important and should be talked about way more then it is. Not only on youtube but in the church. People should be preaching about modesty and how vitally important it is when it comes to being a christian woman. U may think that you're not getting very far with your videos and maybe even get a little discouraged about how many followers u have but im here to tell u that you're doing an excellent job. There are so many women out there living in sin and dressing immodestly for God knows what reason and serving the devil without a care. And worst of all nobody's telling them anything about it! No one is convicting them for dressing the way they do. Sinning men love it and sinning women follow it. It's really sad but im so glad you're trying to set an example for woman. We need more people like u with the willingness to be open and vunerable in order to get the word out about God's truth and how we should live as christians. I would like to encourage u to keep up the good work in doing the will of God. People need to hear the truth and even christians need conviction. God bless you.
This is great wisdom 😁 thank you Jesus 🙏
