Modesty and the Christian
In an immodest age, Scripture calls God’s people to
modest, appropriate appearance and conduct. From Peter clothing himself
before meeting Jesus to God clothing Adam and Eve, the pattern is
reverent covering before the Lord. We explore God’s standard, its
purposes, and our responsibility. (Genesis 3:21) |
Modesty
(Genesis 3:21; John 21:7; Romans 12:1–2)
God clothed the first pair (Genesis 3:21), and Peter clothed himself
before meeting Jesus (John 21:7). With renewed minds and living
sacrifices, Christians present themselves in holiness (Romans
12:1–2). This lesson considers modesty as reverent, appropriate
appearance and conduct before the Lord.
