Their cloths looked like they lived on the streets and they Reeked with BO. They said they had not ever been to church but felt something pulling them in to join.. The good Baptist were appalled!! The deacons called a meeting about this couple doesn’t belong in this church. I let them ramble and finally said my piece…I told them if any of them felt like this couple was beneath them, I’m at the wrong church…I asked them Would Jesus say they didn’t belong here? Needless to say, my tenure as a deacon and member of the Southern Baptist didn’t last long after that.


Show me the one and only New Testament verse that loosely supports the “owe it to the Lord to wear decent attire” (capital “L” decon ) 😂🤣😂

While you are at it show the verse that supports the opposite opinion from folk that look down on other. Its close to the place that addresses knuckle heads that think they own a particular pew 😂🤣😂🤣

Come on decon, you can do it. 😂🤣😂🤣


Here is the dress code for women and men
1st Tim 2:9-10
1st Peter 3:3-4
This is not all but there is absolutely nothing about getting all dressed up
I wear a Stetson hat all the time and yes on Sunday too
I feel my jeans, sports jacket, boots and hat are sufficient and I’ve never been convicted over this way of dressing

When I need expert advice I tend to talk to myself
