The Place and Posture of Christian Women — Part One

by Alistair Begg

1 Timothy 2:9–15
 (ID: 1960)

In 1 Timothy 2:9–15, Paul urged women to adorn themselves with good deeds and godly submission rather than fancy hairstyles, expensive clothes, and jewelry. Alistair Begg explains that Paul’s intent was not to place a blanket restriction on certain styles of dress but to encourage Christians to focus on God and His purposes during corporate worship. Although fashions come and go, this principle remains important for Christians in every generation.
