I dont know if I would deem the word "sexy" that refers to sex, and what ever comes with that word. I would say classic, extremly beautiful..etc... becasue I know for me the minute i think a woman is sexy, my mind goes there.....and the word says to keep our thoughts under subjection.. So, I think its the use of the word.....of course if my wife reads this...she knows i think she's sexy..and i can refer to her as such... but to refer to another woman like that....Hmm...thats kinda tongue and cheek.. ::).so i would say refrain from using that word, if one is not refering to their wife....
I mean common are you goin to say Juanita Bynum is sexy? or Dr. Rita twiggs is hot? or Mary Mary is so sexy??? it just doesnt come out or sound right.
But you know before I got saved, I was really drawn to deeply devoted women of God, I think it was because of th fact that God was their number one priority and I couldnt compete...go fig...whose gonna really win a competition with God? Man was I dumb...anyway..i hope i answered your question or at least gave a little in sight

Juanity Bynum IS sexy!
I know that people feel uncomfortable putting people things and people of God in such close proximity with the word sex. I also know I'll be flamed for even saying that. However, that's just the reality of the situation. I've definitely thought it before - so saying it isn't much different. That's not to say I'm in my house indulding in those thoughts - but I've definitely recognized Juanita's appeal as a woman on numerous occassions.
Juanita, Mary Mary, etc, etc ... are women FIRST. I'm sure when you see them, they you don't break out in tongues, and get you a quick Praise Break. Maybe because you know them as being prominent Christian women, you may identify with them as such first - but, to the person who see's them in public, and don't know them, that's what they'll think first.

What is Sexy? Arousing or tending to arouse sexual desire or interest. Slang. Highly appealing or interesting; attractive:
It all depends in the way that you use the word... You can be a Christian woman and still be sexy...But its all according to how you use it... I mean if you are dressing in a way to arouse someone that is just wrong and not very becoming as a Christian woman... But if you were to use the latter of that definition... Then I would say yes...
Often when something has more than one meaning we tend to use the definition which is most familiar to us... Just like with Tonex stating that his CD has explicit lyrics... We immediately think OH NO, I know he aint cussin on his album... But Explicit (as well as sexy) has several meanings...
I would describe myself as sexy (The latter definition)... I love to look good and turn heads... but in a good way... where I won’t receive vulgar comments... As Bishop so eloquently stated... I like to do it up... and it also makes you feel like a Million bucks when you are looking like it too... I gotta look good going to the store... You never know who you gonna meet... LMBO!!!!
When it comes to dressing & being a born again .. I always ask 'what's the motive?' behind the dress & assessories and I always consider:Quote1Ti 2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
and Romans 8 ([url]http://www.blueletterbible.org/kjv/Rom/Rom008.html[/url])

"Well, who do you find sexy, Albertina Walker??"...
However, I know that this conversation could become very CARNAL quickly, so I won't ask those type of questions. :D
A woman can look sexy even in Modest apparell... She can do it up in a 3 piece suit, with the hat shoes to match, Rhinestones, and accessorising down...

Hahahhaa.....Albertina Walker! Hahahahhaa....but yeah, it could become carnal very quickly, thats why I'm gonna watch it closely because it was a serious qeustion.
I personally believe that when women wear certain things in public, it 'compromises' what they believe

That's typical.
If Halle Berry would come to church in a Nun's habit, you know the men's mind would be "on fantasy island". So I agree, sometimes, it doesn't matter WHAT we wear.
And some women are "blessed" with greater body features than others.....you know that poor woman don't stand a chance in the mind of some men, even if her dress is modest and honorable.
Ummm...no we wouldn't.

To me, women that wear more clothes usually tend to be sexier. I haven't read all the posts. I just wanted to throw a monkey in there. :P

Yeah, to sum everything up, it's safe to safe that since Adam and Eve women have been the reason for men giving in to their carnal desires.

True enough.
However, it's one thing for a man's mind to wonder ... but, it's another thing for a woman to 'confirm his suspicions'...

I think we all would agree it's the man's fault in not keeping his thoughts under subjection.
Ummm...no we wouldn't.
Agreed!
Their are two levels of thoughts, I feel, when it comes to. You can be dressed modestly, and man may see you and think, 'She's a very attractive woman..."
Now, when you start showing too much flesh, it goes from that to, "@##$%@#%%$^&##%&&#%%%%@$ !!!" so on, and so forth.
I think everyone is responsible. If you're dressed appropriately, and some man is all bent out of shape, then that IS on him. However, you can have a split, in a long skirt, all the way up to Glory, and say the man should have more control over his thoughts.
We all need to acccept responsibility.

My whole point (which I thought was clear...perhaps not) is that IF a woman is appropriately dressed and she has no motive to sexually entice a brother, THEN it IS the brother's fault if he still regards her as sexy (arousing his sexual desires) and not keeping his thoughts under subjection. If not his fault, then whose?? ???
"If it ain't for sale, take the sign down!"
Quote"If it ain't for sale, take the sign down!"
Women are spoil by the attention they receive from their appearance. They are very competative. Plus, the level in which they dress has a lot do with their self-esteem. Women are more concern about the size of their body parts than we are.

I think we all would agree it's the man's fault in not keeping his thoughts under subjection.
Ummm...no we wouldn't.
But, I also heard my pastor say one day,
"If it ain't for sale, take the sign down!"

Welcome to the Fam... Jniles' girlfriend...
I think we all would agree it's the man's fault in not keeping his thoughts under subjection.
Ummm...no we wouldn't.
I haven't taken the time to read exactly what everyone has said, but some very good points have been made. A woman knows what is the motive when she puts on what she puts on. If a man has a struggle with lust, or looking, and is married or in a commitment, the bible says if he even thinks it in his mind, it is a sin....but if you purposely dress to cause men to look at you, you have become a part of that sin. You have become the sin, the temptation, and you alone have caused that man to sin against his wife!! But if you know that you are modest, and you truley know God is pleased with your outfit, and he choosed to lust, then that is his problem. Personally, I don't want to look frumpy, I agree with sis T, I want things to fit me, I don't want to look like a hot air balloon, lol. but, also, I watch what I wear, because I want people to see God. I want to look sophisticated, well put together, beautiful...I don't think I would use the word sexy. I don't want an outfit to sent a message that says, hey look at me I'm part of the world, but I also don't want a frumpy outfit to say, wow, that woman looks Depressed serving God!! But all in all, I would have to say yes, a woman can be a christian and be sexy, it will just not be in an outfit that the world would think is sexy! (even tho i'm like lorenzoS to say a christian woman, a woman of God, is sexy, just doesn't sound right, someone grab a thesaurus, there has gotta be a better word!!!)
..this is a subject that has bothered me for many years...I honestly feel that Pastors just dont take this seriously most of the the time.
..the problem is that the scripture that was quoted over and over again is not dealt with.
it is one thing to look like a "garden tool"...(think about it!...(santa's laugh!!!) on your own....but women ...why bring it to Gods house?....why?....life is hard enough.....
mothers....having your daughters dress in tight clothes isnt cute.....what are you thinking?
we are talking about church now!
why would you want a man to see every part of your daughter? why...do you think it's cute the way he looks at her?
I am not excusing the men...I am accusing the women...God didnt ask you to look sexy....for the same reason he asked men not to lust after you!
Sexy is not for you to be....and lets cut the "sexy means different things psycho-babble"
sexy is an intent!!!
your clothes should not reveal or closley outline your body parts!...get a gripsky already.!!!!
I think everyon should dress like monks!
I NEVER DID UNDERSTAND WHY PASTORS DIDNT TAKE A STAND ON THIS STUFF!
(ARE THEY COWARDS OR JUST HAPPY TO SEE YA?)
this is a rediculous cycle of the men love what the women wear...but the women say they dont wear it for the men!...
next time your youth choir sings ...take a look at them....Mothers if your daughter is growing...buy her some new clothes!!!...bigger ones...!!!
I have a 17 year old daughter who I saw a picture of and she had a skirt on that...showed her stuff!
I confronted her mother...and she thought it was attractive...This is the Holy Roller...speak in tongues mother every 5.3 minutes who never wore this stuff her self....has her daughter wearing it.....ya think she's living through her daughter.....I protested but got nowhere.....
IT IS FOR PASTORS TO SET THE TONE IN THE CHURCH!...I HAVE SEEN MANY PASTORS WHO SIMPLY DONT ALLOW IT!...GO HOME AND CHANGE!.....
SOMEONE OFF OF THE STREET IS ONE THING....BUT NOT A MEMBER!....
GOD DOESNT OWE YOU SEXY!...A MATTER OF FACT HE DOESNT WANT YOU SEXY!!!!
HE MADE US ATTRACTIVE TO EACH OTHER NATURALLY....MEN TO WOMAN!....
WHEW....I FEEL BETTER NOW!
NOW CUT IT OUT!

I think we all would agree it's the man's fault in not keeping his thoughts under subjection.
Ummm...no we wouldn't.
I haven't taken the time to read exactly what everyone has said, but some very good points have been made. A woman knows what is the motive when she puts on what she puts on. If a man has a struggle with lust, or looking, and is married or in a commitment, the bible says if he even thinks it in his mind, it is a sin....but if you purposely dress to cause men to look at you, you have become a part of that sin. You have become the sin, the temptation, and you alone have caused that man to sin against his wife!! But if you know that you are modest, and you truley know God is pleased with your outfit, and he choosed to lust, then that is his problem. Personally, I don't want to look frumpy, I agree with sis T, I want things to fit me, I don't want to look like a hot air balloon, lol. but, also, I watch what I wear, because I want people to see God. I want to look sophisticated, well put together, beautiful...I don't think I would use the word sexy. I don't want an outfit to sent a message that says, hey look at me I'm part of the world, but I also don't want a frumpy outfit to say, wow, that woman looks Depressed serving God!! But all in all, I would have to say yes, a woman can be a christian and be sexy, it will just not be in an outfit that the world would think is sexy! (even tho i'm like lorenzoS to say a christian woman, a woman of God, is sexy, just doesn't sound right, someone grab a thesaurus, there has gotta be a better word!!!)
Doesnt matter if the dude is in a relationship, single, a eunuch, etc. If it is thought in his heart, he's committed adultery. We have to look at the deeper meaning of adultery. Adultery is when you're having sex with anyone other than your wife, so you can be adulterous as a single man. Just because we're not married yet, doesnt give us the right to look upon and lust some woman into our mental fantasy bed. Thats why girlfriends and such are dangerous to have, because significant others that you arent married to (ie girlfriends, etc) are temporary at best. And if you lust after them, you've committed adultery there to. Its not your wife until she has your ring. So in essence, your girlfriend could and usually does cause you to sin against your wife.

I don't know about sexy Christian "women." I know a sexy christian woman...that's my wife. I believe that my sisters and I refer to them as my sisters to keep things into perspective have a right to be attractive but when I start thinking they are sexy, it's time to fast. I don't mind when women period, not just christian women are attractive, as a matter of fact, my wife often ask me the question, "do you think she's attractive?" Of course I tell her the truth, because that's what she want to here but I leave it there. We should force our women to look like zombies and then go to work where the women look good and smell good and our hormones are all in a rage because we make our wive look like Seely from Color Purple. No I want the women to know at my job, at church and where ever, don't even go trying to holla at Willie T. cause his wife is attractive and ain't no way I'm going to compete with her.
Just my take on it.

I dont agree! People we are humans and sex and the urge to reproduce is in our nature! Men married or not will always be attracted to women and check a woman out, its in our nature! If a naked women walks in front of my car Im going to look! Thats not lust!!!! Even if the thought comes to my mind Id like to touch her thats not sin (or else we would all go to hell for just our thoughts). Its human! Lust is when I keep it down in my heart and let it fester to the point of action.
I mean we all as men have to have control over our man-ness and have respect for women, and know that they do have faces and their chest and butt are not their eyes! They may have bangin bodies but a woman wants a man who respects her
I'm looking at it realistically and truthful! Something that some of you bigger bible Christians fail to do! Why do you think so many youth males fall, because of unreal teaching! Teach on the reality of human nature and how to over come them using Godly standards. Not spit out all your I`m high and mighty unable to obtain Christian babel ! Side note, We need to start teaching sex ed. in Sunday schools! Its better then a secular teacher teaching our kids it! You understand now!
I'm being realistic... I have made mistakes in life and don't want to see people fail. But like my boy Jamie Jones says, "Why does it take, something so bad to open your eyes." Nice song by the way...if you haven't heard it, you should. Seriously, that's why they call it deception. My wife and I were over the singles ministry for a year and a half and this is all we talked about for a year and half. That's all singles wanted to talk about. Funny thing is, you attract what you talk about. I ain't trippin though. See when I was a young Marine stationed in Hawaii you could get away with some stuff but now the enemy trying to kill for real. Dude ain't playing, they got stuff you can't take penacillin for. Dude...blackdrummer said it, we should teach sex ed in church but we should make it the thing we teach about. I just taught on this, this past Sunday and I think it would apply here, the church is built on the revelation of who Jesus Christ is. While we address thinking like teen pregnancy, we teach teens a life of self sacrifice for a greater cause than themselves. Wow, that's what Jesus did...Phil 2:5 He new he was God but took on the form of man and humble himself was obedient even to death. Teach'm I know you have the power to chose and you feel like you can do what you want to do but you're responsibility as a believer is not to identify with your flesh but to identify with Christ "Christian" and do the Christ-like thing and say no to your own power and humble yourself and your little hormones. Check it...for the brothers out there...Anybody can get some...It ain't like it's hard these days! Biggy Smalls had women...We trip like we King Dingaling and the moment a woman gets what we got, then she's whipped for life. She should be attracted to your vision and where you're going in life. Genesis said nothing about love or lust when God put Adam and Eve together but he did give Adam purpose. Yall better try to fool somebody that ain't been out there playing the game. Negros trip me out cause they hook-up with a few chickens from the neighborhood, it makes them a playa. Dude, I've been all around the world, Hawaii, Japan, Korea, Thailand not to mention all over the U.S. and I've seen all kinds of women. I decide to get married when I was in Thailand one day in a hotel room. One day I decided that I didn't want to got to the saloon ;)with the boys, I realized that I loved my wife and that I was only masking my true feelings for her by going out with the fellas. Well I didn't go and when I got home, the first I did was bought a ring and asked her to walk with me. Negros a trip, got papers on their dog but won't got make relationship legit.
Yall got me stirred up! I'm just saying, if we going to come of a trying to keep it real, then keep it real. Just say, I got a problem and can somebody help me. Don't trip like something is wrong with the church and those of us that are trying to live right...not to mention the women that's trying to save themselves for something right. I don't feel bad about where I'm at or what I've been through. I'm not ashamed either because it helps to deliver people. If we fall, it's cause we wanted to fall. The sin was already in our heart@!
YAH BOY!
Isn't that adorable? Not just the baby...it's that vision of FATHERHOOD...and of a father's adoration of his child. Something he had a hand in creating and takes GREAT PRIDE in raising. MinBrad is another one. :)LOOK AT THE PICTURE! That is sooooo cute to me! I'm sorry, but I just think that's sexy. Just my opinion.

Well ummmmm......cough, cough, who am I to argue with a woman with good taste. :)
I knew it was something about Pajarita I likedededed :)
:D :-[ Man, you made me laugh sooo much! I'm in a library-like place though so I had to stifle it. Man that was hard. I think I almost ruptured something trying to hold in that laugh. :D
I was serious though! Fathers-in-love-with-their-children are sexy! I hope to marry a man like that. The only other woman I wouldn't mind my hubby being enamored with is my DAUGHTER! I've seen men who are considered a "man's man" and "tough guys" turn into puddy at the sound of their little one's voice saying, "Daddyyyyyy!" ::) OH! (Happy tear) It's so beautiful! ¡Aye, Dios! como estoy enamorado con los hombres que estan padres! (God, how I love men who are fathers!)
I wouldn't say that sex education should be taught in church. I would say that what needs to be taught in churches is how to love someone correctly (whether it be a another person or yourself).
Part of the problem with the whole sex issue is that no one is teaching how to appropriately love someone of the opposite sex (I didn't want there to be any confusion ;D). If we properly teach how to love someone in the biblical way; the way God intended, then all this imaginary need for sexual gratification wouldn't be so rampant in and out of church.
But, what happened is that men & women got their Intro to Sexualization from the world, and now the church has to reclaim all of us (yes, I said us) who have been operating via the worlds paradigm on the issue of sex and relationships.
I'm done....for now. ;)
Nah, we shouldn't have sex ed in church because you know someone would try to study the lessons on their own.
Better watch out for those one-on-one Bible Studys, too.

Boy are some of ignorant and choose to stay that way!!!!!! What I said before stands true! I will say hormones are hormones and in alot of men hormones transcend God! Why do you think lots of Christians fall to it (mostly the musicians, I dont know why) And please! The dude who tried to quot scripture at me and tried to say I dont understand it. Revisit it, research the true meaning of it, understand it,then come talk to me... :-*
I Beseech you therefore, bretheren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. - Romans 12:1-2
Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. - 2Cor 7:1
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. - Galatians 5:16
.......And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. - Galatians 5:24

There are many sexy christian women in the world....our sexiness often has more to do who we are and what others find sexy in us (for the real women of God)!!!
Can I throw in 2 cents?
First of all, the teaching of sex, etc to young people is not the responsibility of the church. It is the responsibility of the parents.
That is why there are men's and women's ministries. Men teach men, women teach women. Anything else is usually a recipie for disaster.
Look at what the Bible says. "Let the older women teach the younger women how to love their husbands." Paul was telling Timothy not to think he can climb into the ring with the younger women . . . . Paul said let the older women handle it.
Second, if it were not possible to kill the flesh . . . that means hormones, too . . . then the Bible would not have commanded us to do it. Just people there are plenty of people who choose not to do it doesn't mean that it can't be done.
Third, the Bible says if a person cannot contain, then they should marry. We need to see the vicious circle many people are traveling in . . . they don't obey GOD, so they are less likely to marry. They do unwise and carnal things, which makes other saints pass them by. So they say there is no one to marry. However, the desire for union is still there, but there are fewer and fewer people who are ready to marry. So people sin. Which makes them less likely to marry until they are purged and clean. But they don't want to be purged and clean, so they sin. Why? Because they aren't married. But they aren't married because there still needs to be a purging from the sin. So they sin. Which makes marriage even further off . . .
We need to call a stop to this Shut it down.
Be Blessed, everyone
well i think what 4His Glory is tlkain about is outside of the church as well.. not that women are livving double lives but like i heard a story true story that one fo the young men in the church were walkin in the mall and saw this woman walkin in front of him she had the walk and not only that she was wearing these white pants with a thong of course and he stepped up to her and when she truned around it was one of the ministering staff from the church Evangalist so and so... now she's in the mall walkin just chillin... i happen to know a couple of women who are absolutely gorgeous God made them that way and i have to catch myself sometimes cause i might get cought staring.. not in any way but they are just beautiful...That is just interesting i wonder wat other way that could have gone but i totally respect that!!!!
Now God knew what He was doing when he made Woman.. he made Woman so that man would be attracted to her...i mean like others daid there is nothing wrong in admiring or achknowledge that a woman looks good but i do agree with others that it is up to us men to keep our thoughts under subjection even if it is out there... case in point.. my girlfriend b4 we started dating was atrracted to me i was attracted to her as well i just didn't put the move out just yet.. one day she came to my office and we were tlkain and i happend to see her panty showin now i politely said "if you don't someone goin after your candy you might not want the wrapper to show.." i made a joke about it and she was a lil embarassed i don't knwo if she did it on purpose or not but that's wasn't what i was concerend about the point is that it could've easily gone another way..i just chose not to b/c that's npt the type of person i am..
