Dress styles for Church

When I see people in jeans, I'm happy they came.

I always dress casual, it's what's in our hearts that matters, not what we wear, but if someone wants to wear a suit that's fine!!

I’m sure your God would not care what anyone wore

As long as people don't dress with their boobs hanging out, or half naked and revealing, there's not one thing wrong with wearing jeans. These people should know that God looks at the heart, not the dress or makeup!! God's love and message is for ALL...not just SOME.

Once told a Christian who's young in the Spirit,
" if you were invited to attend a Wedding held at a Five-Star Hotel, your not going to go with jeans, would you?". (He never answered)

As we [b]sincerely[/b] seek this thing called God, we learn and hopefully gain and [b]comprehend[/b].
[b]Things I've done in my past, I dont do anymore.[/b]

For me when I physically attend and worship in 'His House' I'll dress accordingly, worshiping and praying in the 'Spirit'.
In other words paying my utmost respect as I come before the 'Almighty'.

If they attend that is a blessing, attending church ⛪️ is not a fashion contest

Considering the falling attendance in most churches these days, I think the minister/vicar/priest etc should be grateful to have a congregation at all, however they're dressed.

Would you rather them wear jeans and attend or not go at all? 🧐

This attitude right here is why I practice my faith and read my Bible alone and do not attend a church or donate my money to it

It's probably more a matter of respecting others in the congregation than God - who has rather more important things to think about than fashion! They dress more formally to attend church and think that's the only way, without seeing it's their not God's taste in clothes.

Though I fail to see your link between jeans and sexuality.

Leather chaps and my gimp mask

Honestly, I'm more concerned about how people dress in fine restaurants or at a concert or a memorial service (in church or at a hall) than in regular church service attendance. And I try to set an appropriate standard.

Ask them to give you the precise reference of the passage in the Bible where God explicitly says jeans are forbidden/disrespectful in church.

Until then they can suck.. the holy water dispenser.

If the church is a special place, should clothing reflect that and not ordinarily clothes?

In my church, we are told to dress for church as if we were about to meet God, in person.

If that is how you would like to dress to meet God, go for it!

Interesting, I think those stuffy people are a lot of the problem in society and wearing jeans to church sounds great to me!

Never wear jeans. but don't wear suits to church any more.
