So I'm sitting here in an ephod...

Not really, but if I was I'm sure it would be comfortable. The top would probably be like a wife-beater of some sort and the bottom something along the lines of a kilt. Or, it could be a trimmer fitting toga. Seriously though, Dave talked about David's attire during a time of worship in the Bible. You know, if it's cool for the King of Israel to dance around before the Lord in what would amount to an undergarment in today's society, I'm thinking God's not too concerned about what you're wearing when you worship. While you don't want to be a distraction to other people who are worshipping, I don't think the emphasis on "church" clothes is as important as some people/religions/cults make it out to be.

Where I go to church now, a casual type of attire is the norm. If you come in wearing jeans, shorts, pants or whatever, it won't raise an eyebrow. At some churches I've attended, you would think you had violated some sort of cardinal rule if you wore one of the above. On the other hand, we have to be careful that now if the reverse happens in our church and someone comes in dressed to the nine's that we don't look or treat them like the above, otherwise we're not any further along in our beliefs than before. What I'm saying is that what you're wearing is not important, so don't even try to make it an issue because it's not.
