Church “Dress Code”

Full Question: Why do people in our church dress up to church on Sundays but people in other churches don’t?

Answer: It doesn’t matter a whole lot before God how we dress to church services whether we’re wearing festive clothes or regular.  The main thing is what’s inside of us but that’s a question of culture and ways of being brought up.  In our European culture it is common to wear festive clothes on the weekends especially when people go to church.  If people are invited to a meeting with, say, a governor or a congressman they put on appropriate festive clothes (a suit, a tie, a night dress, etc.).  So when we go to the very King our external appearance ought to look nice as well.

Oftentimes looking at people coming to church services dressed without care in shorts, T-shirts often wrinkled that remind of pajamas it doesn’t look appropriate and not very nice.

There is another extreme when some of our people, especially Ukrainian women, spend tons of money on expensive clothes to show off in church.

Clothes of Christians are to be nice, clean and not very expensive.  A Christian ought to look nice both on the inside and outside.
