Bikinis and Modesty

by John Piper | It is impossible to come into a church, youth ministry, or school — say, a Christian school that is permeated with immodesty — and fix it with rules about modesty. Rules have a place. Guidelines have a place in families, schools, youth ministries...

The body is his temple

The current feminist rhetoric is the idea of someone owning her body, to the point where she's free to do whatever she wants to do. But in Christian circles, the body is God's temple. While humans have free will, they're not always free from the consequences of doing certain things (something I've been through a lot so). When it comes to feminism, it's not necessary wrong to have agency over what you do. The real trouble lies with whether or not those are even good decisions to begin with.

To put it this way, it's like if somebody like PD James based a character after somebody she had a secret affair with for years that although she's technically free to use them as inspiration for her stories, she's not going to be free from the consequences like how they got divorced after their wife found out about that affair. Not to mention, if she kept it a secret for years then eventually it will be found out. Wait for journalists to uncover her secret letters to that person and her diaries.

It's really going to shock people, like I said before you might say that PD James has the agency to choose which person to use as a muse. But she won't be spared from the consequences of such an affair being found out that there's a chance her awards would get revoked, that there will be journalistic investigations about that affair hellbent on discovering this person who inspired one of her characters and stories and stuff. As for immodesty, it kind of plays into it in some way.

It wouldn't necessary tempt somebody to lust, but it's going to be inappropriate as it makes you look worse than you intended to. You might not be promiscuous by simply dressing provocatively and playing with pornographic themes, but it does give people a bad impression of you that it seems even if you aren't as promiscuous as they make you out to be. But if you want people to take you seriously and not see you as such, then you shouldn't be doing it in the first place.

I have this example of such immodesty where if someone were to wear a transparent dress with no underwear on and is on the rag, then it's going to be really embarrassing and disgusting because people can literally see through what you're wearing during that time of the month. It may not make somebody lust, but it is distracting because of how horrible this really is. To the point where certain fashion trends aren't worth following if you're menstruating.

Like if the blood trickles down to your legs or leaves an obvious stain, then you have to clean it in due time and change into something less revealing the next time around. Kind of makes one wonder why wives are instructed to obey their husbands, especially if they might do things that make them and the relationship look bad. It could be anything like having crushes on celebrities (which God still sees as adultery, even when it doesn't involve actual sex) and so on.

This is also why older women are instructed to teach and guide younger women, especially if they're instructed to make them do something right. Like the whole immodesty thing, it seems for other women (including other Christian women) they'd rather wish to wear whatever they want to wear. Rather than heeding to somebody else's advice, especially if it's helpful and godly at that. But it's easier to be disobedient and stupid.

So that's why you have the whole I want to own my body thing, even though every body and any body belongs to God.

MLB now going out of its way to celebrate bat-flip immodesty New York Post But that doesn’t mean MLB is above selling self-affection as hard as the NFL and its TV partners sell the most self-absorbed players — regardless of the score — as why we love football.
