Our family was watching a preaching DVD last night. So many things said that really struck home. But one thing that Bro. Tenney said really reached my heart because it is something that really disturbs me concerning our churches. He said, and I am paraphrasing here - It used to be that we (the church) used to hold ourselves to a higher standard of living, reaching for our source (Jesus). And the world's standard was not far below us. But as the world continually lowered their standard's ours seemed to drop to just above them. My question is this - Who authorized us to leave the place where we were in the beginning? Certainly not Jesus because he doesn't change and as his church, neither should we! Powerful and my thoughts exactly! We should be so far away from what the world is as we see the end times unfolding before our eyes. Our God told us to Holy and Separated for a reason!! We are not to get "caught up" in the things of this world.
The other night we were listening to Bro. Jeff Arnold. Love to listen to him because he says it like it is! He said, and once again I am paraphrasing - My wife is for me and for me only. She dresses modestly. I don't want no other man looking at her body. You women out there, I don't need to see what you have on top, I know what they look like, I have a wife and hers are the only ones I need to see. As for hemlines, they keep going up and up - Church it is time to live it holy and separated!! AMEN Brother!!
So, my question for you today - Does your closet reflect the world or God's Holy Word?
