The Biblical Modesty Doctrine That's DAMAGING Your Children

🗡️ This family Sunday School lesson was delivered at Pilgrim Baptist Church in Cookeville, TN on Sunday, September 7, 2025, at 10:00 am. 🗡️

Is your church's modesty teaching actually harming your children? Discover the shocking truth about a false doctrine spreading through Christianity that's causing psychological and spiritual damage to our youth - and why most parents don't even realize it's happening.

In this urgent message, we expose the dangerous "eyes to the face" modesty teaching that's creating shame, fear, and confusion in young people about normal, God-given attraction. Learn why telling your teenage daughter she's responsible for where men look, or teaching your son that noticing beauty is sinful, goes directly AGAINST biblical truth and can cause lasting emotional harm.

📖 Through careful examination of Scripture including 1 Timothy 2, Matthew 19, and Genesis 24, this sermon reveals how false modesty doctrines are damaging children by:

• Creating unhealthy shame around normal development and attraction

• Teaching girls they're responsible for men's thoughts

• Isolating youth with "nobody's good enough" mentality

• Promoting fear-based control instead of heart transformation

• Building a "plastic Christianity" that breeds hypocrisy

As a parent, you'll discover why the Bible actually celebrates appropriate attraction between young men and women, and how to raise children with healthy, balanced views on modesty that honor God without crushing their spirits. This isn't about lowering standards - it's about protecting our children from man-made rules that the Bible never teaches!

Learn how to recognize the warning signs of harmful modesty teaching in your church or Christian school, and discover the biblical approach that focuses on heart transformation rather than appearance manipulation. Your children deserve better than fear-based religion that damages their ability to form healthy relationships.

⚠️ Every parent needs to hear this message before it's too late. The damage from false modesty teaching can last into adulthood, affecting marriage and spiritual growth.
