quote on modesty

Richard Baxter, the 17th century English Puritan pastor, once told the women in his
congregation-in no uncertain terms-that they were to practice wardrobe modesty to
avoid stoking the fires of lust in the hearts of men.

Said Baxter: "And you must not lay a stumbling block in their way, nor blow up the fire of their lust, nor make your ornaments snares but you must walk among sinful persons as you would do with a candle among straw or gunpowder, or else you may see the flame which you would not foresee, when it is too late to quench it."

Let's talk about modesty for the next few days. What does modesty look like for women who are believers in Christ?
