  • Milwaukee on Deuteronomy 22 - 9 years ago
    According to this scripture, date and time one must ask what the attire of men and women was. We certainly know trousers, pants, or breeches were not worn as an outer garment by neither gender. They wore robes that were precisely design for each gender. In fact, breeches were used as an under garment and were first mentioned in Exdous Chapter 28 42 instructions that were given to Moses by God that breeches should be wore under the Priest s robe, to cover his nakedness. Otherwise, I cannot recall any scriptures in the bible that s dealing with pants breeches as outer clothing. Example gird up your lions , was a phrase used throughout the bible for many reasons, however, literally it meant for one to take his robe , pull it from the back looping it between the legs to the front, then secure the hemmed end of the robe with a belt tightly around the waist usually as soldier prepared for war namely Israel. Securing the robe not pants in place enabled the soldier to move freely. Now exactly, what does the Deut. 22 5 means? Since the scripture is speaking on women forbidden to wear male clothes and male forbidden to wear female clothes and calls it an abomination disgrace hatred in the eyesight of God. I m lead to believe that the Holy Spirit is speaking on homosexuality also known as cross dressing. This scripture truly lays open and exposes the hatred God has for homosexual acts not the person John 3 16 for God so love the world . and Romans 5 8 While we were yet sinners Jesus died for us . So He doesn t hate the people and we shouldn t either we should pray that the Gospel of Christ touch their lives. If the Holy Spirit convicts one s heart for wearing pants, then He s dealing with that individual, however, if another believer wear pants in moderation and the Holy Spirit doesn t convict that person, then the bible says don t look down and discourage the believer. It s the heart of man, which will be judge before God and the only thing will matter in the end is . Did He trust and believe the Finished Work on the Cross by Christ . For salvation is wrapped up and tangled into Jesus Christ and Him Crucified! For all of you jeans wearers wear them with moderation remember you are a new creature in Christ Jesus, so the way you formerly wore clothes it should be no more, but the new man at all times should represent Christ . And yes, in a nice pair of jeans or slacks of your own gender.
