Wednesday, April 16

Keep on urging the younger men to be sound in mind.—Titus 2:6.

 

A young man shows that he has developed sound thinking ability by making good choices in dress and grooming. Often, fashion trends are designed and promoted by people who have no regard for Jehovah or who lead immoral lives. Their immoral thinking is reflected in clothing styles that are tight-fitting or tend to make men look like women. When choosing what to wear, a young man who is growing to Christian maturity will be guided by Bible principles and by good examples in the congregation. He can ask himself: ‘Do my choices show that I am sound in mind and considerate of others? Does the way I dress make it easy for others to believe that I am devoted to serving God?’ (1 Cor. 10:31-33) A young man with thinking ability will gain the respect of not only his brothers and sisters but also his heavenly Father. w23.12 26 ¶7

Brought to my mind an image in the updated version of "Dress and Grooming For Visitors Touring Bethel" my husband shared with me yesterday.

 

Page 3 includes detailed Unacceptable For Visiting Bethel photos and why they are unacceptable.  One was a brother in a "Tight-fitting suit."
