In the new covenant G-d has purified us as his temple. He has made us his Holy of Holy's. His Holy Spirit now dwells in us. This is why you should fear with your mortal soul the insult and injustice directed towards one of G-ds saved. It is the same as desecrating the temple of G-d the most high. It does not matter how people look if they have been washed in the blood of the lamb and the Holy Spirit dwells within. Forget your building. Be aware of the sanctity of it's Saints.

When I'm in Church, I'm in "church", it could be the church building or it could be at home in a home church. Wherever we gather together to worship Christ we are in church, it could be at work.
Christians are the church and where we gather we are on Holy ground.
The previous has nothing to do with the issue at hand btw.
Jesus excepts us all after repentance, and when we are born again we are different because of Him.
We are new creatures and what's in the heart comes to the outside.
I have been riding motorcycle with bad guys.
Once I became a born again believer I cleaned up my act, I still ride motorcycle but I don't look like hells angels or a bad guy anymore.
Does that mean I can't wear leathers?? Of course not.
It all takes common sense, as I said.
Anything associated with evil should not be present in the looks of a born again believer.
One does not need to look like a hooker in order to witness to a hooker.
Jesus can do all through you by the power of the Holy Ghost, Jesus does not need you to look evil in order to work through you.
He's way more powerful than that!
