Dress Code

I know there are many different people who don't come to church because they feel they need to dress a certain way. They think they need to dress in their best clothes in order to come to church, but that is not the case. There is no where in the Bible that says one needs to dress a certain way in order to come before God. There is a song that says "Come just as you are before your God". God doesn't care what we wear when we come to worship him, just that we worship him.

Do we get dressed in our finest to read the Bible at home, or sing songs of praise while walking down the street? No, of course not. If it was that we needed to dress a certain way to come to church then we should dress that way in all aspects of serving and honoring God right? If we think we need to dress up for church then we need to dress up to read the Bible and what not in our own homes. Being in God's presence does not have a dress code or anything of the sort.

We don't personally worship God in our Sunday best, so why do we need to attend church in such a way?
