Where has the respect for our Lord gone? I see pictures of a preacher and members of the Cowboy Church wearing cowboy hats. Churches, in an effort to draw new members, are bowing to the casual lifestyle of the country. I feel this is not the proper way to honor our Savior. I have been born again and have been told to give my best to the Lord. That includes Sunday (church) attire.
Would you wear shorts or sandals to a fine restaurant, or wear a hat in a funeral home? How about a short skirt or revealing top?
Our God is loving and forgiving. He deserves honor more than anyone or anything. Teach respect of our Lord and honor him above all.
Let's not bring God down to our level. Let's raise our level to God's.
