Are we our brother's keeper? The way some of us talk we are... Just wondering if that's biblical truth or not and what the arguments for and against are...
I mean is it our responsibilty to look after our "brothers" and be responsible for their short comings.... for instance... the idea that the things we do can make them stumble... is it our fault and should we have to be eternally vigilant, and if we do it in ignorance or innocence, are we still responsible?
I agree that we should be cautious with our clothing.but if I'm eating chocolate decadance ice cream and don't know you're a closet glutton am I at fault... because it's not clear
hypothetically one could say I could hypothesize that someone in public that I'd know could have an issue with food so I should be cautious... just like they say with clothing all the time...
iow, all of the parts?don't believe we should wear gunny sacks LOL but wear enough clothing that covers all the parts that were created for your husbands.
Make sure that the blinds are closed.. Modesty is in our best interest for not only us but our brothers.. Tee hee.. I know I don't like my husband and the colleges when he has to work there.. he comes home and tells me he needs a bath and goes straight for his scripture and prayer..iow, all of the parts?
And always keep your eyes covered or downcast
I think staying in the house is the best bet
but wear enough clothing that covers all the parts that were created for your husbands.
Very well said MamaZI believe we are our brothers keeper in the fact if we know that something will make our brother stumble we should avoid for all costs doing or having or eating this in front of him causing him to stumble. If we do not know then I don't believe that we are causing him to stumble. I truly believe that we do not have restrictions on us in area's but that not all things are profitable. When it comes to the dressing of a woman we know that men are wired different in their eyes and dressing to little does cause a man to stumble. I don't believe we should wear gunny sacks LOL but wear enough clothing that covers all the parts that were created for your husbands.
