Sep 4, 2024 · Answer. Whether or not Christian women should wear pants, slacks, or jeans is a long-standing issue among believers. It is, perhaps, an issue that has garnered more than its fair share of attention over the past few decades. The faithfulness of a daughter of God is not ultimately measured by what clothing she wears but by her walk in the Spirit ...

If our girls and women in tropical regions wear appropriate trousers (pants) to protect their body from insects such as mosquitoes, that will be acceptable. If our girls and women adorn themselves with appropriate trousers (pants) for rigorous activities such as house chores, farming, mountain climbing, jogging, and other forms of exercising, that will be acceptable.
Mar 4, 2016 · In this article we will seek to answer the question of the morality of women wearing pants. The Bible is clear that God want’s women to dress like women and men to dress like men. “ 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.
Oct 19, 2018 · Some believe strongly that Christian women must only wear dresses, no pants of any kind, considering culottes (split skirt) as a form of pants. Others, who believe strongly that women must only wear dresses, believe that it is O.K. to wear culottes and long full-legged swim shorts. While still others who believe in dresses only, don’t see ...

As noted in the article on Jewelry, the restrictors of liberty bear the burden to prove their own case biblically, if they can’t, it falls. Just like we are innocent until proven guilty, we are at liberty unless proven constrained. It is not up to me to prove women can wear pants, it is up to them to prove they shouldn’t. To provide a fair case aga...
Women and Men’s clothing All through history, the clothing used by men and women have been unique so that there was a clear distinction between the genders. Thousands of years ago both men and women wore types of cloaks or types of robes, but even then there were differences that allowed a person to identify the gender. There a long history of clot...
What makes you think that pants are a man’s garment? 1) “Breeches” were an article of clothing designed by God for the priests who were all men. The word does not occur very often in scripture, but in every case it’s men’s apparel (Exodus 28:42, Leviticus 6:10, 16:4). According to the Hebrew lexicon, “breeches” means “trousers that extend to the kn...
Cross dressing is one of the devil’s clever moves to advance the “women’s liberation movement” and to obscure the Biblical distinction between man and woman. “Unisex clothing” began to show up in the factories during WWII when women first started wearing slacks. At the same time: short hair, cigarettes, swearing became acceptable feminine behavior....
But what about the observation that the rise of women wearing pants was associated with other sins? Various evils can coexist without being the cause of each other. During the same “golden age” in which all women wore dresses without question, there was that little problem where millions of black Africans were being kidnapped and shipped across the...
Arguments against this doctrine Some people argue that the principle of unique apparel between the man and woman as established in the Old Testament (Deuteronomy 22:5) is not confirmed in the New Testament, thus is not applicable to us today under grace. But if we look at the reference book Treasury of Scripture Knowledge (printed over one hundred ...
A more valid argument in this paragraph refers to the perceived “double standard” of men not being allowed to wear dresses, but women being allowed to wear pants. I think this is one of the most compelling arguments the author makes, so I applaud him for coming up with it. Here’s why I submit there is no double standard. The standard is, men and wo...
I would like to address at least two other arguments against pants which the author didn’t bring up. The first is the issue of abominations being unchangeable. This is a fundamentally arbitrary standard which has no inherent biblical basis other than “the Lord doesn’t change” which doesn’t differentiate how “abominations” are different than any oth...
I do not see that the author of the Holiness Handbook has fulfilled his burden of proof in restricting our Christian sisters to the wearing of the garments that he has authorized (which do overlap with men’s clothing such as t-shirts and boots, but don’t include pants). In regards to the two things he had to prove, I do not think that there is suff...
Allow me to summarize all of the relevant arguments for women’s liberty to wear pants: 1) The passage in Deuteronomy may actually be referring to women wearing armor. 2) The OT law would have permitted women to wear pants if that was the custom of men at the time – men and women wore slightly different garments, not fundamentally different ones. 3)...
Neither men or women wore pants. For Christians Paul states, " In like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing " (I Timothy 2:9). The Greek word kosmois, translated here as "modest," refers to clothing that is neat, orderly, or ...

Mar 12, 2024 · One of the most important aspects of dressing as a Christian is modesty. The Bible instructs us to dress in a way that is not provocative or revealing. This means clothing that is not too tight, too short, or too low-cut. We should avoid wearing clothing that draws attention to our bodies and instead focus on dressing in a way that is ...
