Does The Bible mention about skin colour?

1- he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, 2-There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 3-His feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters. 4-I am very dark, but lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon. 5-Likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire 6-Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? 7-You shall not make any cuts on your body for the dead or tattoo yourselves: I am the Lord.


What scriptures in the Bible tell you how you should dress?

; Women may not wear men's clothing or vice versa -- it's an "abomination unto the Lord." : "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God." -- Deuteronomy 22:5 ; Women may not braid their hair, wear gold, pearls, or expensive clothing. : "Women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array." -- 1 Timothy 2:9 : "Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel." -- 1 Peter 3:3 ; Don't wear garments with wool and linen blended together. : "Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen and linen together." -- Deuteronomy 22:11 ; Priests must wear linen, not wool, and may not wear any garment that makes them sweat. : "But the priests ... shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come upon them. They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and shall have linen breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird themselves with any thing that causeth sweat." -- Ezekiel 44:15-18 In other words... everyone is going to hell. Does this mean women can't wear pants? Why would God try and tell you what to wear, then make it very available to you to dress "wrongly"? Why does he care how we dress.. I thought he just wanted to be worshipped?


Why do people have five point stars on their homes?

I've been out data collecting homes this year (2009) and have noticed many homes with "decorative" stars on them. They are five point stars and dimensional. I've asked around and no one seems to know if there is any significance to them other than mere decorations. That's extremely hard for me to believe. I've been working all over Montgomery County (Dayton, OH area) and down in Scioto County (Portsmouth, OH area) and they are EVERYWHERE. I've seen them on $1,000,000 homes and on 12x60 mobile homes located in a very secluded hollow (with trash and deer bones strewn all about). Here are some of the answers I've found over the internet by googling the question... 1) The star has a military significance (my first thought... as relating to the star in the window deal... blue star.. gold star.. different colors signify household member in Iraq or Afghanistan, or lost in combat, wounded, etc. etc... 2) Purely decorative with no significance (just hard for me to believe) 3) Signifies a Christian home 4) In Pennsylvania, denotes something about German-Amish tradition 5) In Texas, shows pride in ones state 6) A pagan home celebrating winter solstice 7) Barn stars... supposedly marks or covers the ends of beams in a barn So apparently there is no singular purpose for this very distinct star. It's not like there is a wide variance in the star. I have seen smaller ones and sometimes the star is blue, but the VAST MAJORITY of them are rust reddish brown in color and appear identical as if from the same manufacturer. Picture of decorative stars at link below http://www.dmzdesigns.com/decorative-barn-stars-americana-pi-459.html?osCsid=036bd6318f4151189d3f9ab9b3fc382a The link below states many reasons people display these stars on their homes and the significance of the different colors http://www.americantinstar.com/ I'm just amazed.. I've only noticed these recently, but have seen a question regarding these stars on another site dating back to 2003... anyhow.. it seems this is a home decor fad that has swept the nation... if that's the case... too funny. Bring back the colored gazing balls that used to adorn so many front yards... lol
