Are We Hypocrites?

[Apologetic_Warrior]

Fundamentalist believe in strict interpretation and practice of the word.
But, how many of us really do this?

For example, in the New Testament it states that women should pray with their heads covered and forbids the wearing of gold and jewelery.

There are many other examples and this is only one.

good question, good point

Some things in Scripture are matters of custom and culture, for example, I've never met anyone who sacrifices meat to idols. From the example above, I think the main underlying message we can extract is an exhortation to be modest, and you would still have a point, too many Christians, especially younger ones, do not practice modesty, I believe men should also be modest as well, but I also think groups like the Amish take the modesty issue to extremes. My two cents.

The church I was going to up until I moved practiced that. It's a blessing on any church to follow the model Paul gave us as closely as possible.
