The reason why it is said that women should not wear trousers is encapsulated in AlphDoti's post, will just say it a little differently.

Just in case you do not know, what one wears is not neutral, but can invoke or prevent lust.

When one lusts, sin will have been committed, because when one lusts, it is the same as committing adultery.

Matthew
5:27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

There is not a single dimension in creation where God's law is not applicable, the law is applicable even in what goes on in our minds.

In many cases, women who wear trousers tempt men to lust.

It's not necessarily the trousers, it could be the top, the skirt, the dress etc... and because in many cases, the trousers cause men to lust, it is therefore said, no wearing trousers.

But this does not mean that there are no trousers, tops, skirts, dresses etc... which are not revealing, that are modest, but for the sake of everyone, it would not hurt to going to church not wearing trousers - since there's already something like a stigma around it.

The underlining issue here is modesty. A modestly dressed woman will not cause men to lust. A modestly dressed woman will not be a temptation to men, thus the Bible does not have to mention trousers, instead the Bible presents principles which apply, irrespective of the fashions & trends of the day and age.

Modesty is not something that should be fulfilled only when going to church, rather, it should be a grace on the individual - always, everywhere, even during the week.

When dressed modestly, you are more likely going to get a man who respects you for who you are, because it was your character that attracted him to you.

The attention that one gets after dressing provocative, is attention from an individual who has been tempted by the style of dress, but it looks like the manipulated attention is enjoyed, hence the scarcity of modest dressing.

These are erroneous teachings:
- That the law was nailed to the cross.
- Because Christ died for us, we can now live however we want (do sin), that we are in the dispensation of grace.

Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death...". Sin = the transgression of the law 1 John 3:4. - This is because the law requires the blood of the transgressor. Christ fulfilled the law by paying the wages of sin, which is death, which the law requires. Christ became a substitute for us (the transgressors). If the law was not applicable, then Christ would not need have died to meet it's demands. The law always has been, and always will be the standard of righteousness, upon which all judgement is based on.

Romans 6:23 continues to say "but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." - We do not do, nor can we do anything to earn salvation, it's a gift to be accepted or rejected. Good works are not a means of earning salvation, instead, good works is fulfilling the Christian's mandate, good works is a revelation of one's faith.

Matthew 5:18 "For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled." - This means that as long as creation exists, no piece of the law will cease from being valid. The point here is that the law is eternal, because there will be no time when creation will not exist.

Supposing someone shows up in church with some revealing clothing, and this person did that ignorantly, the person did not know any better, will the church members be looking at the person strangely, not talk to the person? That individual will need to be accepted the way the person is, then in meekness, teach the person what is right.

If that person was not accepted, then that person was judged, so the counsel is to judge not.

Romans 14:1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.

God uses the law to perfom judgement, that is why the law is the standard of all righteousness. Unrighteousness is breaking the law = sin.

2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

Ezekiel 3:18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.

Isaiah 58:1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.

You are wrong .please Consult your ancestors history. Kids out of wedlock and losing virginity before marriage were close to a bad omen. Compare to today when religious fanatics / extrimists lying daily ati uko na personal relation na creator
