GOOD BLOG BECKA!!!!!!
I was reading Becka's blog, (as I continue to be home sick XP) and I mostly have to agree with her... The only things I don't agree with is that personally I wouldn't want to wear a decapitated head that's been skinned (as cool as privateers were) and also I never had liked the studded bracelets as they hurt when your playing punch buggy! Spike+cheek=PAIN!!!!!! But I find that when someone is snubbed from the church just because they like blue jeans and tee shirt over tight collard vest and 3 peice suit well I think we've got a new religion starting! I mean like does god really CARE if you're wearing a name brand suit or your best tee shirt? like I mean like I know you want to dress up a bit because it's the Lord we're visiting, I would never wear like a dirty ripped up tee sirt or my pajamas! But when a church refuses to allow a man to hear the word of Christ because maybe he can't afford the fancy vest well, How do excpect to spread the word of Christ??? There ain't enough three peice suits out there for every human being to own one!!!! I mean when Jesus spoke to his diciples do you think that he'd say, "oh I'd love to talk to you but I can't, your suit's in the wash!" It kind of loses the signifigance of let everyone come unto me!!!! I think the best description I heard is from one of my pastoring Uncles, He told a story that describes the "dress code church" perfectly...
There was a church out there that was incredibly proud of themselves for having such a high class, clean, sophisticated church. However one Sunday they noticed a man who came in wearing a tee shirt and some jeans... After the service was over the board of elders approached the man and said "sir, we are glad to see that you come to our church, but we don't think that you show a good example with what you wear... so therefore we want you to go home and pray all week to ask God what he thinks the dress code of this church is." So they all left and the week passed and the next week the man came back dressed the exact same way! So after the service the elders once again approached the man and asked, "Didn't you pray like we asked you to?" and the man replied honestly "Yes," so the elders confused asked, "Well what did God tell you?" and the man replied "He said don't ask me about the dress code, I haven't been there in years!"
Now I'm not saying that it's wrong to dress up, I'm just saying that it's wrong to peer pressure (despite the name this goes even more for adults) people if they don't dress up. Clothes are not what matter! The Lord has worked with people with 26 peiricins and tattoos all over their arms! It's not the look of the person, it's why they look that way, or how they think about it now! For instance, You could dress in all black because you're a goth and believe that only the dark things in life... which in my humble opinion is wrong, or you can dress in black because it's cold outside and black keeps in heat better, or you were complimented on how you look in black clothes by the girl you've been trying to impress, OR IT'S LAUNDRY DAY!!! but those reasions have no wrong meaning what so ever yet people will judge people on it. That is why it's my goal, (which I must say I'm doing a perfectly DREADFULL job at) to say hi to everyone at least once. And then you can say they're a jerk! (Kidding) anyways I'd better go and take more medicine... if there's anything an ear infection has taught me it's that I don't envy the deaf!
