A woman should dress modestly so that she does not cause men to stumble, and she trains her thought life not to lust after men.
Excerpt from "When Love's In View" by Dr. Conway & Jada Edwards
Romans 14:13 underscores this principle: “Therefore we must not pass judgment on one another, but rather determine never to place an obstacle or a trap before a brother or sister.” To put it simply, women must be very careful about what they wear. The focus of men’s interest is physical by nature. They don’t need any help from us in conjuring up physical desire. If this happens to be a struggle for you and you often feel convicted, earnestly pray and ask the Lord to show you how to make the appropriate changes in your dress and lifestyle. God will respond by giving you the grace to help you make the necessary adjustments in your behavior.
As you pursue the heart of God, you will find that what may have been acceptable in the past is no longer acceptable to you.
And SISTAHS, let’s not forget our duty to lovingly, yet boldly encourage and challenge younger ladies as to what they wear – not just talk about them as they walk by.
