Dress styles for Church

How do you feel about people wearing jeans to Sunday church services? A lot of people including myself are wearing jeans especially members of my community (lgbtq) along with people that are not. Some of the older members of the congregation say we are being disrespectful to God for dressing that way. This is the same group of people that tend to ignore the lgbtq people in the church. BTW it is a United Methodist Church I am referring to.

[b]Just saying,[/b]

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'.

@eyeno I think we should wear ‘our best’ when we come in his presence but I never, ever look down on people that dress down. And people in rags can be full of God. 😊

I know where you are coming from and I agree.

@NoGamesTolerated ya ...,that young man I was talking about is just learning, like I am as I'm constantly trying to get closer to 'Him'.
