People try to defend their worldly dressing and they are even
using it to defend their self-righteousness. Make ups and jewelries are evil
things, no matter how good you are and no matter how you justify them by saying
you use them without evil intentions. Love not the world rings out more loudly.
1 John 2:15-17 "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
It specifies, "Nor the things of the world." It is
better to be safe than sorry. True Christians need not to appear gaudy, adorned
by silver and gold, immodest, and with worldly designs and lifestyles.
Jewelries and make ups are devilish products. Emmanuel Amos Eni said in his confession "that these thing sare manufactured by the evil kingdom, and Satan always wants to corrupt the
natural beauty God has given to human
Likewise also in evangelist fumilayo confession "990 years in kingdom of darkness" also attest about her exploit in the
introduction of women attachment, wig-on and makes up in the church through the
covenant she made with goddess of beauty; medusa.

Salvation is by grace through faith, but true faith produces
total obedience to His Word. God's grace is not a license to make a Christian
appear like the ungodly people of this world, but to "deny ungodliness and worldly lusts" (Titus 2:11-12). No matter how you defend yourself, you still have no
alternative but to obey. To obey is better than sacrifice.
The Assemblies of
God (the largest Pentecostal organization in the world) formerly denounces
wearing makeup, immodest dresses, and wearing jewelries and calls it of the
devil. Thank God there are still a lot of church groups and
organizations who have not lowered down the standards of inward and outward
holiness but rather wave its banned in the midst of sinful world.
PASTOR ADEBOYE SPEAK AGAINT IMMODESTY DRESSING IN THE
CHURCH
And also the Redeemed Church of God, in addition to this
fact; few years ago, Pastor E.A Adeboye, the general overseer of the Redeemed
Church of God voiced publicly against jewelries, wigs, bleaches and makes ups. Below are the details
of what he said:
The elder have a say, "if children of the same mother enters
into a room to talk and come out smiling, they have not told each other the
truth. Alright, so in the next 3 minutes, you might not be smiling, because am
going to tell you the truth, because am your daddy, strictly speaking, and I
have search the scripture, there is no where that I have found where it is
written, if you wear make-up, you will go to hell or you will not make it to
heaven.

I can’t find it in the bible, nowhere at all, but I have done my own
research, there are two places in the whole bible where references were made. Painting of face, only two places, and the two places are
bad.
- The first of the places is talking about Jezebel, how many of you will name your
daughter Jezebel. 2 kings 9:30"And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out at a window" The day Jezebel was going to die, she make up, properly,
painted her face, dented her face with jewelries, at the end of the day, and
dog ate her.
- The second place, Jeremiah 4;30" And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.
God was speaking in
anger saying, daughters of Zion, when I make up my mind to deal with you, you
can paint your face as you like, it is not going to deliver you, read it, you
have your bible to read, those are the only two places I found, and they are
terrible references.
Now as far as am concerned, it is up to you to decide how
you want to look, you want to make up, you want to paint yourself, you are at
liberty because life is personal. If for any reasons whatsoever God decides not
to allow you to enter heaven!!sorryyyyyyy oooooo!!
The point am making is this, nobody ever add sugar to honey,
have you seen anybody adding sugar to honey. Anytime you see a piece of
furniture that is painted, wooden furniture that is painted, the wood is
inferior, when the wood is ebony, nobody paint it, no-no-no. I think children
of God should realize they are precious enough, by the special grace of God and
by shed blood of Jesus Christ, they are honey, they don’t need sugar.
Some people go about in the name of fashion wearing wigs, am
not being judgmental at all, this is not law, there is nowhere in the bible,
which is says if you wear wigs, you can make it to heaven, but this hair, that
you are wearing, from whose head was it cut?
Do you know who the original owner of the hair was? Do you
know what kinds of anointing are in that hair? It was put in the most important
part of your body---The head!!
Thou anointed my head. The world is so bad now that some ladies come for ordination
with wigs and attachment on their head. I always asked them which one, do you
want me to anoint, the wig or the head?
I read something in the book of Revelation 7;1-3 "And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
Some Angels were sent from heaven to deal with the
inhabitants of the world, after the rapture, the bible says I heard , the
Almighty God said, before you begin to deal with people , let me mark them, let
me seal them on their forehead, so that we know those that the bullet should
not hit.
PASTOR ADEBOYE ON EVIDENCE OF OUTWARD APPEARANCE
If what we wear does not matter, why do you think the army wears uniforms? Probably, because that they will not accidentally shot their comrade. Therefore, can God recognize you at a glance, that you a child of God? Some people says it does not matter, what is inside is what is important. I agree, but what is inside will show outside, it will manifest on the outside.
It will show, don’t let anybody deceived you. When I became general overseas newly. I brought a group of teachers to come and teach in the bible college, and they began to teach series of doctrine we didn’t bargain for. They were teaching them God is not interested in the outside but he is interested in the inside and they began to tag me as been too strict to my godly believes.
So I went to oyingbo market (Lagos State, Nigeria) to buy two oranges, one ripe and the other green all over because my bible students were beginning to turn to rebels, and God gave me wisdom. So, I stood before the class and I said, which of these oranges will you take, if I ask you to pick one?
They all pointed at the yellow and ripe one and I said why? They said because that one is going to be the sweeter one. Then I asked; how do you know? Moreover, you have not seen the inside; they said what is inside is showing outside. Hallelujah.

PASTOR LAZARUS SPEAK AGAINST IMMODESTY DRESSING IN THE CHURCH
As preacher; ensure the lightness and the goodness of your
ministry shine before men. Don't just preach what people want to hear but
rather preached what will pricked their heart and ensure you abide and let the
world known and identity you by your believes.
This also reminded us about the encounter Pastor Lazarus
Muoka; the general overseer of “The Lord’s Chosen charismatic revival ministries”
speech on the important of modesty dressing in the church. He emphasizes his
reason based on the encounter he has many years ago when he was invited to
preach on a certain church in Europe, which congregation were mostly dominates in
immodesty dressing.
Below are the details
of what he said:
Some years past i was invited for a church program and the
Host pleaded with me to preach to his congregation. However I replied
"Sir, i believe you fully understand the biblical doctrine i always
uphold. Moreover, you can behold most of your congregation are in immodesty
attires and i can't preach a message without emphasizing about the important of
inward and outward purity"
The Host pastor responded and asks me to proceed because that
was reason why he invited me in the first place, so that i can preach to them.
Nevertheless, when I mounted the pulpit, instantly; diverse manifestation of
miracles, breakthrough, broken of yokes, bondage and instant testimonies spread
like whirlwind.
In my usual manner; I concluded the sermon with salvation
messages, enlisting various kinds of sinfulness, indicating them all by their
names such as envy, anger, unforgiveness, lying, hatred, malice, murmuring,
gossiping, stealing, taking or giving bribe, exams malpractice, fraud, smuggling
and robber.
Masturbation, fornication, adultery, prostitution, Lusting
after MONEY and SEX, abortion, lesbianism, homosexuality, kidnapping, ritual
killings and assassination, fighting and quarreling, alcoholism, smokers,
divorcee, polygamous marriage and pleaded those who are into such sinfulness to
embrace lightness of God’s salvation through Jesus Christ.
And finally, i concluded by admonishing the congregation who indulged
into worldly fashions, dressing in transparent clothes, wearing of mini and
tightly skirts, trousers, exposing your breast, lapse to seduce men. Painting of lips, fixing attachments, weave-on, jewelries
and earrings, makeup’s, putting on extra eye lashes, piercing of noses,
tattoos, nails fixing and body bleaching and all form of immodesty dressing to
eschew them, burns them off and embraced godly modesty in serving God in purity
of heart.
I can recalled vividly; after that message, "I felt pity and sorry for the pastor
that invited me because it will takes the grace of God for the congregation to
returned back to the church due to the undiluted word of God i ministered to
them in the first day of the programmed"
However, in the night i heard a song which sang "Amen, Jesus says Amen...!"
When i awoke i was surprised by the song ministration but it later dawn to me
that indeed "HEAVEN APPROVED MY GODLY
MESSAGE"
Howbeit, the next day been the grand finale of the
programmed; in fact the whole church auditorium were jammed-packed with massive
trooped of brethren but this time; in a glorious modesty attire presentation. This great revival eventual brought a new godly era in that
church till date because a preachers refuse to adulterate his messages and
biblical doctrine in the church. Hallelujah...!
Finally; the godly preaches are always seen with their
Bible. It's their Bible that brought them to where they are today. Therefore,
ensure you always carry your Bible, Read and Meditate upon it daily in order to
be remembered as a godly preacher; so that the light of God in you will shine
before men.
THE DOCTRINE OF
MODESTY DRESSING IN THE CHURCH
The church of Christ must remain unspotted from the world.
They must preach that women should not wear trouser (pants) and immodest
apparel. They must condemned and preach that wearing of makeup’s and jewelries
are sinful and worldliness.
The godly church with aim of helping her sheep in making
Heaven, must always preach against the influence cause by the evils in worldly movies,
televisions, radios, theaters, dancing halls, alcoholic drinks, computer and
internet games, participation in wars and killings, abortion, homosexuality and
same-sex marriage, occult and horoscopes, new age philosophies, etc.
NARROW IS THE GATE, AND ONLY A FEW THERE THAT FIND IT. Those
who justify wearing makeup and jewelries are candidates for the great
tribulation. But those who denied all these worldly and fleshly things will
receive greater rewards. To who is much given, much is required!
Why does today modern churches find it too hard to surrender
unto church modesty doctrine and forsakes makeups and jewelries? Why? It is
because of their pride, rebellion, and desire for the praise of men and earthly
treasure?
They want to act
proud and decided not to accept the way God made them and they still keep on
trying to please men and themselves rather than desire the most simple,
natural, and humble walk with God. They can’t surrender their makeups and
jewelries and their immodesty because they still have the desire to feed their
fleshly natures and appear like the rest of the world.
Satan wants to destroy Deuteronomy 22:5 "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God" Satan wants you to doubt
God's Word about women's uncut hair. Satan wants you to remain on your worldly reasoning’s,
so that you may not be able to go with Christ in the rapture. Christians cannot
get crowns without the cross, and the Cross represents not just the Gospel, but
also living the Gospel.
ALSO READ; Worldliness To Be Avoided In Christian Dressing.
To live in the Gospel is to renounce all worldly things, to
deny yourself, to deny all your worldly desires, to deny all your arguments to
the obedience of the Scriptures, to deny your longing for makeup’s, trousers,
and jewelries, to deny your flesh.
The Cross is a way of total obedience, total consecration,
total holiness, total purity, total sanctification, total dedication, total
separation from worldliness. The Cross is a life of Jesus Christ who Himself
denied all these things, and to be Christian is to deny every weights that
pulls us down that we might remain worldly.
Jesus gave His whole life, even His blood. And now you say
you can't surrender your earring for personal gratification even if it’s a very
simple thing to surrender? God loves you. That reason why He allowed you to
read “The Doctrine Of Modesty Dressing
In The Church” in order for you to amend your ways and turn to God in total
holiness, submission, consecration, and total separation from the world.
Why keep on insisting on justifying makeup and jewelries
while all of these things are just material things? Will you allow these
material things to hinder your consecration to God and eventually end up in
hell because of pride and vanities? Salvation is God's free gift to us, purchased at Calvary,
and received by us through faith in Jesus Christ. Salvation is past, present, and future. The complete work of salvation
is because of God's grace. God's grace is not automatic, but rather resistible.
Man has given free will, and, although God's grace is God's
unmerited favor to man, man can reject His favor by rebellion and not
submission to His will. Salvation is not taken away. It's always there through
the covering of the Blood of Christ. But man chooses to disobey His word, and so
the grace of God cannot get a hold of man's freedom to choose.
The Lord is gentle, His Holy Spirit is gentle. He will not
force us to obey His Word by legalism and by works. God respects man's free
will. But man's free will to do evil is not approved by God, that's why
repentance is necessary. God's grace enables us to repent, if we yield to His
will by obeying His Word.
The grace of God leads us to submit to water baptism in Jesus
name; to bury our sinful nature. Through the grace of God, He gives us His Holy
Spirit that we might overcome sin, the devil, and the world. Acts 2:38 "Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost"
and Romans
6:1-6. God's grace is sufficient for us, but if we keep on
disobeying His Word, we will face the wrath of God.
Why? Because God is bound in His own Word, Calvary does not free
us from His moral law, but rather gave us the ability to walk above sin and
worldliness. Christians, even those who call themselves Spirit-filled are grieving
and quenching the fire of the Holy Spirit by continue justifying their love for
makeups, women trousers jewelries, immodest dresses, worldly hairstyles, and
unsound opinions and worldly principles.
The Holy Spirit speaks inwardly and by Holy Ghost filled
preachers. The Author of the Scriptures, the Holy Spirit of God Himself is the
same One God who speaks to us. The Lord will never contradict His Word. If
women wearing man's clothes (or vice versa) is an abomination to Him before, it
remains abomination to Him forever, for He never changes (Deut. 22:5,
Heb.13:8).
