'We are whole people living whole lives before a holy God.' The dichotomization issue is central. Thanks for raising it! Please do not forward this message to Tim Horton's.

Interesting too that the KJV on biblegateway.com has:the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
1 Peter 3:3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting
Does yours really say dresses? What year was it printed? And who was thepublisher? And if biblegateway is correct is Peter advocating nudist colonies? :-)
Now, if outward stuff is not important, then why did Peter bother writingthis? I have friends who were told by God (in an audible voice!) to stop drinking coffee or to stop wasting food. What's with that?? Perhaps we're not to separate spheres of our lives into outer/inner, secular/sacred etc. We are whole people living whole lives before a holy God.not
Love,
Caroline
