\u2026 what does the Bible really teach here about the outward adorning of the person?<\/p>\n
It says that the woman is not to seek to be attractive by outward adorning and dress. Does it expressly forbid the plaiting of the hair, the wearing of gold and the putting on of fine clothes? This is a question often asked.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s say \u201cyes\u201d and then go on from there and see where we stand.\u2026<\/p>\n
Does the Bible say, then, that a woman must not be adorned with braided hair?<\/p>\n
If we say, \u201cYes, that\u2019s what it means\u201d\u2014that rules out the braiding of your hair.<\/p>\n
The advice continues: \u201cLet it not be the wearing of gold.\u201d<\/p>\n
Does that mean that gold can never be worn in any way by a Christian woman?<\/p>\n
We will agree for the moment and say that gold is out!<\/p>\n
\u201cNor the putting on of fine clothes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Now, wait a minute! We are in trouble with our reasoning here, because this certainly does not mean that the woman is not to put on any nice clothes.<\/p>\n
If it doesn\u2019t mean a strict ban on fixing the hair or wearing of gold or putting on of fine clothes, what does it mean?<\/p>\n
It means the true attractiveness of the person is not outward but inward! Therefore, the Christian woman should remember that she cannot buy true attractiveness\u2014that radiance which really shines forth in beauty is of the heart and spirit and not of the body!<\/p>\n
