You must be missing school terribly. I mean, no textbooks, no homework, no pop quizzes . . . what an absolute drag. Lucky for you, it's Paula to the rescue with a summertime pop quiz! Not just any pop quiz, mind you, but a style quiz straight from The Look: Does God Really Care What I Wear? by Nancy Leigh DeMoss.

girl looking at clothes in closetHere's what you need to do. Answer the following seventeen questions with either "true" or "false." Leave your answers on the blog. Then check back next week to see how you did. We'll even choose ten of you at random on Monday, June 25, and send you Nancy's booklet.

Ready? Pop quiz away!

  1. According to the Bible, the primary purpose of clothing is to cover the body.
  2. There's nothing right or wrong about particular clothing styles. It's all just a matter of taste and personal opinion.
  3. The Bible tells us what styles of clothing Christians should wear.
  4. Since the Bible says God looks on the heart, what we wear and how we appear aren't that important; it's what's on the inside that counts.
  5. Our clothes and appearance reveal a lot about our values, our character, and beliefs.
  6. What I wear is not really anyone else's concern. I should be free to wear the kind of clothes that I like and that I feel comfortable wearing.
  7. Modesty means dressing in a way that is outdated, dumpy, and unattractive.
  8. If a girl doesn't wear trendy clothes that are at least a little revealing, guys won't notice her.
  9. Except for guys who are "over-sexed," most men are not really affected by the way women dress. Most guys don't even notice how women dress.
  10. I can't help it if guys struggle morally because of what I wear. It's up to the guys to control their minds. I shouldn't have to change the way I dress just because they can't control themselves.
  11. Parents shouldn't impose their standards or beliefs about clothing on their kids. They should let them make their own decisions, even if they don't approve of what their kids are wearing.
  12. Christians are free to dress as they wish, because we're not under the law, but under grace. It's legalistic for parents or youth leaders to establish guidelines or standards for the way young people dress.
  13. Christian women should never wear clothes that are revealing or that look sexy (i.e., clothes designed to arouse sexual desire or interest).
  14. There are some public settings where it is okay for Christian women to wear clothing that exposes their private parts (e.g., thighs, breasts).
  15. A woman can be covered from head to toe and still be dressed immodestly.
  16. A woman can wear modest clothing and still be an immodest woman.
  17. Most girls and women do not understand the meaning, the power, or the benefits of true modesty.

    11. I know the Bible says about parents instilling values in their kids or something, so I know the answer is false, though I'm not exactly crazy about this idea because if a child's parents makes her dress modestly, she may always dress modestly just because it's WHAT SHE'S USED TO DOING, not because she wants to honor God by doing so
    12. false

    For #13, I guess I thought it just said "Christian" and didn't specify Christian WOMEN. So to correct my answer, still false, but the parenthesis part should read "if she's married, with her husband! :)"

False - I don't think parents should force or impose their standards or beliefs on their kids but I do believe that we, as their children, need to obey our parents rules on how we should dress as long as we live under their roof; and we should respect and honor them even after. (I personally don't have any problems with the way we dress in our household. I dress the way I do because I feel more comfortable when I am dressed modestly.)
    12. False
    13. True (Though it would be fine in front of your husband only)

    Hi LYWB,

    This post was very helpful. I recently found out a girl had the same grad dress as me. I wanted to change it or do something different but I wasnt allowed to.Reading this post made me realize wearing clothes (even if they are the same as someone else) doesn't matter because God looks at the heart.

    Thanks :)

    Maybe this isn't for everyone but I have found with a lot of my friends and myself that if parents make thier children live according to parents beliefs (such as wearing modest clothing) when they don't want to and explain the purpose however many times it takes, generally it aventually comes from the heart of the children and then it's there conviction. Think about it, if one's parents did not make one go to church and he did not enjoy church what, apart from a revelation from God would make that child go to church?
    You definatly would want to give children room to be convicted by God, but not having solid rules about modesty I don't think is the answer.
    Just a observation. I could be wrong.
    I don't have time just now to answer the quiz, hopefully later!

    Dear Jenn, I noticed you answered false on the question of whether or not our clothing choices and appearance reveal a lot about our values, our character, and beliefs. And your statement that went along with your answer really hit me. You see, being a pastor's daughter (low income) means I've done my fair share of shopping at second hand stores and receiving hand-me-downs and such... and I can't always have the clothes that I'd like to have. So I understand a bit where you're coming from. But at the same time, even in the scarcity of your clothing options, there are still boundaries that can be set and choices that do have to be made... and this is what this question is talking about. Even if (for some reason) you're forced to wear something revealing and you're completely uncomfortable in it and it shows, that says something about your character, your values, and your beliefs. But most importantly, even those girls who have small budgets when it comes to clothing, still have little ways of being modest and making sure that they are covered properly... and if you take the time and the effort to do those things, it will be a good indicator that you value modestly and purity. So don't give up on striving for those things just because your clothing choices are minimal... if you don't already know how, perhaps you could learn how to sew and that would help a lot with altering outfits to achieve a modest look. Don't give up, dear friend... modestly is important and God calls us, through His word, to do all for the glory of God and that includes the way that we dress, even if we are poor, because when we save our bodies for our husbands and keep ourselves from being a stumbling block to others, we are glorifying God by pointing others to Him through our actions, and that is what this life is all about - glorifying God. And God knows your predicament, so don't be bashful about praying and asking Him to help you out with ways that you could strive after modesty.
    Blessings!

    1. T
    2. F
    3. F - now this one confuses me a bit and I really wasn't sure what to put. It all depends on what you mean by styles. Because modesty is a "style" and in that way, the Bible tells us to dress in a way that is modest... however, if you are speaking of styles as in tends and such, then the bible doesn't says what trends to wear and not wear... it all revolves around the question of whether it is modest or not and if it's modest, no matter how trendy, then it'd okay. So I guess I'm going with false, but I'm really not sure about the question.
    4. T - but! If our hearts are in the right place, what we wear will fall into the right place as well... so while our hearts are most important, a heart in the right place will equal a value of modestly in the right place.
    5. T
    6. F
    7. F
    8. F - the wrong guys won't notice her, true... but the RIGHT guys will. :)
    9. F
    10. F
    11. F - this one seems to have much controversy around it. I believe that it is equally or even more important that children are taught why we dress modestly... no kid should just be forced to do so without any explanation, but taught the reasons that we desire to dress modestly and most importantly the Gospel, because outward obedience of this sort should only be fueled by a love for the one who already loved us so much and that can only happen when we understand the Gospel. So teach your kids the Gospel, first and foremost, but make sure to go on from there.
    12. F!! "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?" -Romans 6:1-2
    13. F - never in public, but in the instance of the marriage bed (and only then) it is perfectly fine.
    14. F
    15. T
    16. T
    17. T

    This was fun! Thanks so much for sharing this... you guys should do this more often! :)

    3. False - no, it doesn't, and that's why there's such a conflict today because it's not clearly spelled out. I think it's good because, for example, jeans weren't even INVENTED when the Bible was written, so we use the principles from the Word to form current guidelines for today.

    3:21 And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them.

    2. False. Our clothing could make our brothers stumble. 1 Corinthians 8:12-13 ESV

    Thus, sinning against your brothers and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

    3. True. 1 Timothy 2:9 ESV

    likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire,

    4. False. Job 40:10 ESV

    "Adorn yourself with majesty and dignity; clothe yourself with glory and splendor.

    5. True. Proverbs 31:17, 20, 25-26, 29-30 ESV

    She dresses herself with strength and makes her arms strong.
    She opens her hand to the poor and reaches out her hands to the needy.
    Strength and dignity are her clothing,
    and she laughs at the time to come.
    She opens her mouth with wisdom,
    and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
    "Many women have done excellently,
    but you surpass them all."
    Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
    but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.

    6.False. Luke 17:3 ESV

    Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him,

    7. False. Proverbs 31:29-30

    Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
    but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.

    8. False. Remember that woman at the end of Proverbs who clothes herself with strength and dignity? Proverbs 31:10-12 ESV

    An excellent wife who can find?
    She is far more precious than jewels.
    The heart of her husband trusts in her,
    and he will have no lack of gain.
    She does him good, and not harm,
    all the days of her life.

    9. False. Oholiba lusted after high ranking men in Babylon and look how they reacted.
    Ezekiel 23:17-18 NIV

    Then the Babylonians came to her, to the bed of love, and in their lust they defiled her. After she had been defiled by them, she turned away from them in disgust.
    When she carried on her prostitution openly and exposed her naked body, I turned away from her in disgust, just as I had turned away from her sister.

    10. False. 1 Corinthians 8:12-13 ESV

    Thus, sinning against your brothers and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

    11. False. Proverbs 23:13 ESV
    Do not withhold discipline from a child;
    if you strike him with a rod, he will not d Ephesians 6:1 ESV
    Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
    Colossians 3:20
    Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord.

    12. False. Deuteronomy 4:5-6, 8 ESV

    See, I have taught you statutes and rules, as the Lord my God commanded me, that you should do them in the land that you are entering to take possession of it. Keep them and do them, for that will be your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the peoples, who, when they hear all these statutes, will say, 'Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.' And what great nation is there, that has statutes and rules so righteous as all this law that I set before you today?

    13. True. 1 Corinthians 6:13 ESV

    "Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food"—and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

    14. False. Titus 2:7 ESV

    Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity,

    15. True. Isaiah 47:10 ESV

    You felt secure in your wickedness,
    you said, "No one sees me";
    your wisdom and your knowledge led you astray, and you said in your heart,
    "I am, and there is no one besides me."

    16. True. Psalm 90:8 ESV

    You have set our iniquities before you,
    our secret sins in the light of your presence.

    17. True. A lot of us teens tend to believe the lies presented in the quiz. That's why I presented scriptures in my answers, because God's word is the ultimate truth. If I have taken any of the verses out of context I sincerely apologize, that was NOT my intention. Sry that it was so long but God has a lot to say on the subject. One more verse I found and really liked : P

    Romans 1:24-25 ESV

    Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.


    Thanks again for another great blog article!

    11. I didn't say true or false on this one because I don't really know. At some point parents can't really tell their children what to wear anymore. So I guess while the children are young, it's fine. But at some point the kids have to make their own decisions. Like for me, if my parents were to tell me what to wear I would get angry. I have to be able to make these decisions and learn for myself.

    Took me longer than I thought, lol

    1. True
    2. False- It does depend on what you mean by style. The Bible gives us guidelines that we NEED to follow, but it doesn't spoonfeed us fashion info.
    3. False
    4. False- I KNOW, I know. The Bible does say God looks at the Inside. We're not talking about beauty or worth here. PEOPLE look at the outside. Like it or not, they do judge you based on how you act and what you dress like. If you claim to be Christian, and You don't dress modestly you are sending out mixed messages that confuse your witness.
    5. True
    6. False
    7. False
    8. False
    9. False
    10. False
    11. FALSE- Parents SHOULD take responsibility for their children. I'm a teenager, my Mom doesn't dress me, but if I am wearing something innapropriate, or too much makeup, she will lovingly point that out to me. She isn't overbearing or controlling, but she loves me enough to help me see when I need to change. I would say this shouldn't change until the child leaves the house.
    12. False
    13. False (the ONLY exception, being, well, you know, marriage and all that.)
    14. False
    15. True
    16. True
    17. True- Although this post might change that!!

    1. True
    2. False- If all clothing was a good style for young women trying to live biblically then we would automatically disregard God's word.
    3.False- THe bible isn't something we should go through and make a checklist with.
    4.False what we wear expresses who we are. Job 40:10 is a good verse
    5.True- What you wear will show others around you what you are really like. But then there are those who may go to church and call themselves christians but have to shop at second hand stores. It all depends on how you PRESENT yourself. Romans 12:1-2
    6.False. If you are a part of a church body there will be lots of people especially men that will be looking and concerned the way you are dressed. We have to remember that men are wired differently from us women so we have to be helpful in the clothing area.
    7. False. Now the fashion tren of long skirts are coming back into style. When you fear the Lord, have respect for him and his word, have a meek spirit and allow him to transform you, you won't look outdated. Proverbs 31:29-30
    8. FALSE - ALl the godly MEN will notice her if she truly worships God and lives a holy seperated life to Jesus Christ. And we should be seeking God's approval not man's Galatians 1:10
    9.FALSE- Men are so stimulated by what they see. Men are wired so much different then Women. That is why we have to be considerate when it comes to all types of clothing.
    10. FALSE- Again men are diiferent from women God made them so much diiferent in the way they think. 1 Corinthians 8:12-13
    11. False- Parents have a big role in kids lives. Especially dads. If us young women don't obey commandment number 5 then we automatically won't even obey God and his word!!! 3 John 1:4
    12.False. We have to obey God not man God should be convicting us!!!
    13. True
    14.False Titus 2:7
    15. True ( what are you thinking, what are you watching, what are you listening too?) If we are " modest" with are apperal and the inside isn't right with God then we are Immodest
    16. True Psalms 90:8
    17. True - Some of us teens tend and want to believe the lies this culture, family, friends and the world want us to believe. If we don't have personal conversation with God and don't read his word then we won't know what he thinks about modesty. Modesty isn't just appearence but our character our meekness level our thoughts, our goals and what we do with our time. Romans 12:1-2

    1- True.
    2- False
    3- False and True. The bible doesn't specify completely over what we can and can't wear, but it does say not to wear things that would distract people away from God.
    In like manner also, let the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair, or gold or pearls, or costly clothing, but that which is proper for a woman professing godliness with good works.
    4-False.
    5- True.
    6- False.
    7- False.
    8- False
    9- False.
    10- False.
    Guys DO see what we wear, and it's not fair to them, or christianlike to make them stray.
    And I want a guy who doesn't see me for my 'sexy and trendy clothes', but a guy who sees a modest girl, choosing to be Christlike in her apparel.
    11- false.
    12- False.
    13- I'm not sure how to answer this one. If I was alone with my husband, then I suppose it wouldn't be a problem. But if I was in public, or with a group, then I'd say no.
    14- True. Swimsuits. My standard is one piece with swim shorts/Skirt, or a tankini. Which is a swim tank top and shorts.
    15- True.
    16- False.
    17- True.

    I understand there there's a lot of controversy on this topic. I'd love to read the book.

    I think a major issue that Christians don't realize they struggle with, or they don't even think about it, is legalism. In my opinion, modesty is not a list of rules. Modesty is not, "Oh you can't wear this," and "Nope that's inappropriate, don't wear that." Modesty is the radiance of a woman's character shining through, and it is the protection of the heart, body, and soul from the world's contamination. Modesty is an attitude. Burkhas don't make a woman modest, they simply cover a lot of skin. Being modest means putting emphasis on the heart, not the skin. I can't say that I don't struggle with this all the time, because that would probably be a lie. I do struggle with having a desire to make the right choice with my clothing. However, I do recognize that modesty comes from within. The mystery that is created enchants and mesmerizes men...it doesn't draw attention to our bodies. It leaves room for imagination. Modesty allows men to get to know us for who we are, not for our bodies. I have faith that there are guys out there who hold modesty in high value. They aren't the most visible, but I trust that young men still care about this. In fact, take a look at this website. I found it SO encouraging!!

    http://www.therebelution.com/modestysurvey/browse

    Again, this is not about a list of rules or legalism. It's about the attitude to the heart. Don't forget that, girls. =)

    Love in Christ,
    Rachel =)

    1. True
    2. True/False. It depends on the clothing. If a certain shirt is revealing your breasts/midriff then that's not modest and is inviting guys.
    3. False.
    4. True.
    5. True. I've seen a numerous amount, who I know are insecure, walk around in
    6. False. If you're leading a guy on, you should make it your business to look at what you're wearing
    7. False! Modesty is dressing in a way that reveals your heart.
    8. False! Most guys will, for a wife, go looking for a girl that respects their body.
    9. False! They do! My sister once told me that even if you're dressed modestly the showing of even a bra strap will turn guys on.
    10. False. They are your Christian brothers! Don't be stumbling block to their faith.
    11. True. It depends on the age. As teenagers, I feel that parents need to take a step back, and let their child make their own mistakes. And help them.
    12. True. But still, as a helpful guide, set standards to what you're wearing.
    13. True.
    14. False! It is never okay for any woman to go around with their breasts hanging out!
    15. True. Modesty is also about how we act, not just what we wear. If we go around flirting with every guy in the universe that is not modest.
    16. True. (see above answer)
    17. True. The world is constantly telling us, "Dress to impress."

You share your thoughts very respectfully, and you can really see that there is a very mature and wise young woman writing them. When you do take time to answer a question someone has posed, you don't try to say "Ohh, what you're doing is SO wrong" or act like you are perfect and have never struggled with that same issue. Thank you for your contributions to the conversations on LYWB.com! Keep up your amazing attitude, Rachel!

    I noticed that a lot of girls answered #13 with true with the exception of with their husbands. I'm thinking that its actually not ok to do this even in front of your husband. There's a lot of examples in today's media where sex should be sexy and these are ways to make it more "fun" and "exciting". This topic is very confusing to me. I know that God does not want us to act in this way, so does He want us to have "boring" sex. I would like to see a blog post about this topic to clear things up.

    re; Hannah/ boring sex
    on Sunday, June 24, 2012 at 12:52 pm
    Can I take a stab at answering that? The brain is hardwired for two kinds of sexual stimulation. First, adrenal, which is achieved by the "new" or "dangerous" (and any new relationship is emotionally dangerous until trust is established) Then the brain naturally segues into oxytocin based sexual stimulation (after a few years) which is vastly superior in both studies of activation of brain pleasure centers, and in survey studies of sexual satisfaction. The problem of boring sex only arises when A) one is still wanting the Adrenaline rush of early sexual stimulation and can't get it or B) worse, they seek it out through porn or fantasies or (eek) cheating. The production of oxytocin halts, and sex becomes monotonous. Sad. So, a good litmus test for marital sexual encounters is whether its trying express love, or danger. If you are expressing love, your bond will deepen, and sex will be more satisfying each year. If you are expressing "new" or "dangerous" encounters, your love life will be shallow, and yes, you will be being immodest.

    Four: False! Even though God looks at the heart, it's important to dress modestly! I find it important to dress modestly, I remember when I went on one of my first date's with a guy friend I really liked and I'm thinking in my head I've got to find the most modest thing I've got!

    I think as a Believer, it's important to demostrate and respect our Brothers-in-Christ in how we dress because Guys are visualizers. Women are more emotional!

    Great question, Hannah. The LYWB Team appreciates your suggestion for a post addressing the beauty of God’s created design for sexual intimacy between a husband and wife.

    Denise Glenn in her interview with Nancy DeMoss http://www.reviveourhearts.com/radio/revive-our-hearts/superglue-your-marriage/ talks about the journey of learning that sexual intimacy is a gift from God that a wife gives to her husband. She goes on to share how she learned to be a sensuous woman and still be a godly woman.

    1. True: I think that the Bible plainly states that in Genesis.
    2. False: Some fashions are simply harmless, but on the other hand there are some that are quite dangerous.
    3. True: The Bible does not just go out and say what fashions we should wear, but it can guide us on what is wrong and right.
    4. True: This is true, that they aren't that important, but this does allow you to dress sloppily or provocatively.
    5. True: Even if you do not feel this way, other people will view you according to how you dress and act, and when you go to your closet to pick out something to wear, it will usually reflect how you feel that day.
    6. False: This is only true if you are not causing someone else to stumble. In one of Paul's letters, I forget which one, he warns about, as much as you can, not to do this. (Say, causing men to lust.)
    7. False: Very much so not!!! If anyone believes this, I advise you to research Pure Fashion and visit their website.
    8. False: If I understood this right, you said that if a girl doesn't dress provocatively she won't be noticed by guys. Absolutely not!!! In fact, they will notice you in a more positive way, and if not, my guess is that you wouldn't really want to be noticed by that person at all. In the Rebelution's modesty survey, you can read the guys comments, and they often say that they respect they girl who dresses modestly.
    9. False: For some really careless, lazy guys this may be the case, but as I said, they will usually notice you positively, even if they don't say so. (And if there are any guys reading, I think this would be very encouraging to the girls if you did.)
    10. False: We have a big responsibility to the guys. And personally, if there is a girl out there causing MY future husband to stumble, I'd be pretty mad at her. (Hope that's not you.)
    11. False: I think that as someone else said that they should give the girl some room to grow, but in the process, they could save some boy an awful lot of trouble. It's the girl's own responsibility to make mature decisions.
    12. False: As I said above, they could be saving a person some trouble, and for the persons own sake, people WILL judge you on your dress whether you like it or not.
    13. True: It's our responsibility to the guys, simple as that.
    14. False: I cannot think of any public setting that this would be permissible. In the swimming pool it might be acceptable to show some of your thighs, though not out of it.
    15. True: Modesty is a mindset and attitude of not drawing attention to yourself, and the way of how you dress should be only a reflection of what’s inside. You can dress in a way to attract attention and be provocative without being dressed skimpily.
    16. True: She doesn’t need to be dressed provocatively to act that way, and, as I said, modesty is a mindset. Like the story about the Pharisees where Jesus tells them that they are like a dish, looking pure on the outside, but being dirty and unclean on the inside.
    17. True: I believe that many ladies believe modesty is only a way to dress, but in reality it is so much more. And modesty can reap many more benefits than apparent.

    I'm particularly offended by question 10. If a man feels the need to sexually assault a woman, we call him a rapist and that is never justified, even if shes walking around naked. Men are, in fact, the same species as woman and have the ability to control themselves sexually.

    I am sorry that you were offended. Our question was not meant to condone the sexual attack of a man on a woman. That is sin. God will hold them responsible for their actions. We hope you understand that.

    But we also want you to understand that we are also responsible for our own actions. Even though men and women are from the same species, God created us differently. He created men to be visually oriented. When we choose not to dress modestly, we are not keeping the needs of the men in our lives above our own (Phil. 2:4). It not only puts us in a vulnerable position, but it also doesn’t bring glory to our Father in Heaven. We are to do all things to the glory of God (1 Cor. 10:31).

    I’m praying for you Simone, and asking God to be near you and to guide you as you seek to work through the thoughts shared about modesty.

    Bible Camp
    on Tuesday, July 24, 2012 at 4:02 pm
    Off topic* But read. You might be interested. Almost every year i go to this Bible Camp. Its a different topic every year. What i like about this camp is that it is full of Christians ready to learn but there is also a fun part to it. You don't have to be a Christian. Ages are from 8-18. If you are 18 and up you can be a counselor. You can still be a Camper if you like too. Here is the Website. Check it out. The camp cost $425. You don't have to pay it all. You can pay 25, 50, 55, 80.What ever you have. This year i only paid a little. If you don't pay it all, you write a letter to the person who donated the money to you. They provide you with paper and pens. You get divided into age group cabins , so if you16, you wont be with 12 year olds, you'll be with 14,15, 16. Check out the Website. Tell your mom, your dad, your brothers and sisters. http://www.northeastfccamp.com/index.html


    Youll be glad you came. The director of the camp is Gardner hall. This year on the 4th of July, i got baptized. The topic this year was love. I cant wait to find out about next year. There is also a camp just for girls, this august. The topic is, choose today whom you will serve. Aside from that, we are going to learn how to be faithful to our husbands in the future and how to cook and be holy women. You can contact Gardner Hall on the same website. Only Girls.
