God, The First Fashionista -
10-27-2014, 02:48 AM
One of my favorite verses has always been this one:
Quote:
Genesis 3:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
|
Now God was pretty steamed when this happened. He had just discovered that Eve had fallen for the serpent's wiley ways and eaten the forbidden fruit, and then tricked Adam into eating some too. God was mad, I can tell you.
But think about it; God took the time to kill some animals (we don't know which ones), skin them, tan their hides, design garments for both Adam and Eve, then cut and sew the skins for them. I have often lain awake at night wondering what those first outfits must have looked like. Imagine the fashion sense that God Almighty would have had. The perfect fit, the coordination, the style!
Snakeskin shoes for starters, I'd bet.
Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:
Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

Well, I know this might sound bad..... but I'd like to thank Eve for making us wear clothes. I mean there ain't nothing in the whole World that feels better than having trendy new clothes, shoes, handbags and accessories.
And, honestly, who wants to see a bunch of old wrinkley people walking around. OMG, that is so gross! I don't even want to think about a bunch of old men sitting on metal folding chairs............

Mrs. Daisy,
I really did not need that image! That being said, I do agree with your point! I can thank the Lord that I have lovely, handmade (by me, of course) dresses that are appropriately modest. And I utterly love that the Lord made shoes and accessories.
YiC,
Elizabeth

Then why God created Adam and Eve naked? For what I know, they felt ashamed about being nude after they ate the forbidden fruit

And if you actually read the actual freaking Bible, you'd know what it said and could discuss this matter from a position of KNOWLEDGE, instead of flaunting your ignorance for everyone else to over.

With a simple answer is ok, you don't need to be so nasty all the time

I'm not nasty, just exasperated with people who refuse to cure their own ignorance.

Not to contradict, but do we know God™ tanned the hides first, etc?
I know if the sinful, unruly Adam and Eve were MY disobedient kids, I'd sew them into warm, squishy, dripping skins just ripped from the animals, so the world could see their shame.
Then they'd have to wear the rotting skins, with flies buzzing about, until they dropped off months later. Maybe the scent would even get them chased by predators? THAT would give them something to think about!!
