This is the key to this discussion. As if "Sunday dress" weren't subjective enough, where in Scripture do we even see the need for this? I certainly agree that looking ragged is inappropriate for church on the grounds that it is not a good witness, but beyond that there is no absolute standard based on what the Bible tells us. Again, I completely understand the "heart issue," but I don't think nice casual vs. business suit reflects a difference in one's walk with Christ...
I agree. I can't imagine that in places in the world where people own nothing but one item of clothing (and there are many like that), that God is going to judge them because they didn't go get a suit and tie to wear to worhsip on the Lord's Day.
