“Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? No!
“They were not at all ashamed, nor did they know how to blush. Therefore they shall fall among those who fall; In the time of their punishment they shall be cast down,” says the LORD.”

Our Dress Can Affect Others
Just because I am not ashamed to wear a particular outfit does not mean it is O.K. Some are
not ashamed, but should be.

A Gentle Appeal
• To Think
• To Look at self
• Realize:
“I could be wrong. Some of
my clothing could be
immodest.” Romans 12:1-2

1 Timothy 2:9-10 (NKJV)
(9) In like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in
modest apparel, with propriety and moderation,
not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing; (10)
but, which is proper for women professing godliness, with
good works.

Modest, ProperGrk. kosmios
W. E. Vine – “orderly, well-arranged, decent”
Thayer – “seemly, modest…” used in 1 Tim. 3:2 as one of the qualifications of an elder.
Kittel – “describes one who disciplines himself and who may thus be regarded as genuinely moral and respectable”
If there is proper clothing, then there
is definitely clothing that is improper.

Propriety, ShamefastnessGrk. aidos
W.E. Vine – “a sense of shame, modesty... which is ‘fast’ or rooted in the character”
Thayer – “a sense of shame, modesty,... primarily in regard to others”
Many Christians have allowed the
world to desensitize them to their
sense of inward shame.

Moderation, SobrietyGrk. sophrosune
W.E. Vine – “sound judgment, ...that habitual inner self-government, with its constant rein on all the passions and desires”
Kittel – “restraint, moderation, discipline”
Such discretion should prevent a Christian from wearing what is
designed to be ‘sexy’ … ‘revealing’ … ‘eye-
catching’… ‘hot’ … ‘provocative’

GodlinessGrk. theosebeia
W.E. Vine – “Denotes the fear or reverence of God; a desire to please God”
Strong – “Devoutness, i.e. piety”
“Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall
be praised.”(Prov. 31:30)

To Dress Modestly Means…
• to dress in a proper and respectable manner…
• with a sense of shame if others were to be tempted because of your revealing clothing, or think of you as worldly because of your expensive or flashy attire.…
• using good judgment and self-control to insure that others do not face such temptations…
• so that what you wear will cause people to notice your fear of the Lord and commitment to godliness.

Naked, no shame before sin (Gen. 2:25)
Sin brings shame, try to cover nakedness (3:7)
Apron (loincloth) insufficient, still naked (3:10)
“God made tunics of skin, and clothed them” (3:21)
Note: Just as with marriage, this must be seen as God establishing His original order.
