Question

What should I do ? I play the piano and every one will see.
Is it disrespectful to wear dirty clothes to church?

Answer 1

Im guessing Jesus didnt have sparkly white robes everywhere he treked around in dusty palestine and isreal
What matters is what is in your heart and your mind.
Not your social status.

Be warned though, other Christains may disagree

Answer 2

well lets see.... No it shouldn't matter if you wear dirty or clean clothes....that's vanity....but sitting here reading this screen could also mean yer lazy....that's sloth....you choose to spend money on personal enjoyment like this screen ahead of you and the Internet service provider so that you could ask your questions, instead of spending the three dollars it would cost you at the laundry mat to wash a suit....that's greed...to say "I want to go to church today but don't have any clean clothes" is a lie...., you knew that Sunday would come, but also knew, that if you didn't have any clean clothes, it would give you the excuse to sit here reading and asking questions, and to do so, is the fact that you didn't want to play piano, or that you felt you were hanging the congregation,or that the church really needs you more than they think...that's Pride. and Vengeance...sometimes we show the world the way we feel on the inside by showing it on the outside and around us. Sometimes people who are dirty on the outside are the cleanest people on the inside, and sometimes people who are clean on the outside are the dirtiest on the inside, From what the world has taught and shown me all through my life, there are a lot of clean people out there...my opinion only....and if you just got off the fields, get the heck going, yer gunna be late, just wash your hands and spray some stinky stuff on and get ta church boy!

to make a long story short. If you know why it is that you are going to church, ask yourself what clothes your soul wears after it leaves the flesh? or if Clothes are really that important to God anyway...i mean he already knows what you look like on the inside. and isn't it Gods house you are going to visit? look for the clothing rules at the entrance or ask the valet when you get there!

Answer 3

It sounds like you don't have a washer or dryer available, otherwise a load of laundry would be in order. Do you have a sink, a bathtub, an outdoor faucet (wear a robe), or a shower? Do you have hand soap or dish soap or even laundry soap? Any water source and any soap will do. Wash them by hand.

It should take between 10 minutes and 30 minutes (depending on the number of clothing articles that you need to wash). You can air dry them on a line or on furniture, or let them dry while wearing them.

Answer 4

A little prior planning in this case would have gone along way to preventing the dilemma that you currently find yourself. Obviously this is something that you do on a weekly basis? Perhaps you don't find church to be all that important to your life?

Find your best set of clothes and clean them up to the best of your ability....and take a shower for crying out loud!

Why are you on here asking this question when you should be taking care of your clothes?

Sheeeeesh!

Answer 5

Why didn't you plan ahead and wash your clothes?

If this is something the congregation would look down upon----I'd find another congregation. This one is not very Christian-like.

Answer 6

Go!

Those who get offended have dirty hearts and you should not worry about them. You gift is what he desires and the fact that you recognize you situation will give him the opportunity to help your situation.

GO!GO!GO!

Answer 7

get out the cleanest things that you have, if needed press them a little and go on. Next week get them ready on Sat. so that you don't have the same excuse or problem.

Answer 8

Find something that you can throw in the dryer with a dryer sheet to refresh it. It doesn't matter what you wear...what matters is what's in your heart!
