As summer temperatures rise standards of modesty seem to fall. Very few people, including many who claim to be Christians, are concerned about modesty. We live in an age that glorifies immodesty and immorality. On almost every commercial advertisement, whether it be on a billboard, television, or in a magazine, and regardless if the advertised product, the allurement is not the product itself, but men and women who are dressed immodestly. Thus, immodesty has become so commonly excepted that it doesn't bother most people.
Most people feel no shame if they see someone on television or in public who is dressed immodestly.
Many people wouldn't have any problem dressing the same way. The Israelites were condemned by God through the prophet Jeremiah because they no longer had any shame. Immodest dress is the type of dress that brings attention to ones body, to expose one's nakedness either by thin, tight, or revealing clothing. Immodest dress has always been sinful in the sight of God. When Adam and Eve's eyes were opened to sin and shame they realized their nakedness and made for themselves aprons of fig leaves and covered their loins and hid from God.
