Jealousy and lust

What?!?! What in the world is she wearing?!?! Yes it's true... Some people dress and wear not vary modest clothing. It's sad to see people dressed like they don't care about their body or they try to make others sin. What I mean is sometimes people wear skirts or dresses, short-shorts etc, that are to short and to revealing. Also what I mean about "making others sin" is last week I saw a women wearing a white tank top and long white pants with flip flops.... In the 10c weather! All of the men and even women were looking at her. Why you ask well all of the men were looking at her because she looked like a Barbie doll, skinny, blond wavy hair tall etc... The men were sinning
when they were looking at her with lust... The Bible says "If you have heard that it was said, 'do not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks at women lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart." Matthew 5:27-29 (it's also one of the Ten Commandments)
A lot of women were also looking at this women with jealousy in their hearts because she looked "perfect." In the Bible God says he does not look at the outer appearance he only looks at the heart. The Bible also says "You shall not covet your neighbour's house. You shall not covet your neighbour's wife, or his manservant, or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbour. " Exodus 20:17
People also dress like they don't care about their bodies. they dress with their shorts up so high you can see her butt and some people wear tops down so low you can see their.. Well you know what! The Bible says "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price.
Therefore honour God with your body." 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

I hope this helps!! :)
