In moral philosophy, deontological ethics or
deontology (from Greek d???, deon, "obligation,
duty") is the normative ethical theory that the
morality of an action should be based on whether
that action itself is right or wrong under a
series of rules, rather than based on the
consequences of the action.

FOUR AREAS OF CHRISTIAN LIFE WILL BE
EXAMINED Eating, Dressing, Culture, and mindset

8
Culture

Culture is a term that refers to a large and
diverse set of mostly intangible aspects of
social life. According to sociologists, culture
consists of the values, beliefs, systems of
language, communication, and practices that
people share in common and that can be used to
define them as a collective. Culture also
includes the material objects that are common to
that group or society. Culture is distinct from
social structure and economic aspects of society,
but it is connected to them both continuously
informing them and being informed by them.
9
Mindset
In decision theory and general systems theory, a
mindset is a set of assumptions, methods, or
notations held by one or more people or groups of
people. A mindset can also be seen as incident of
a person's world view or philosophy of life

Lord, am holy, and I have set you apart from the
nations to be my own.

DRESS CODE
An accepted way of dressing for a particular
occasion or in a particular social group

54
DRESS CODE
Dress code does have a social significance with
various rules and expectations that are valid
depending on a situation and occasion.Clothes
communicate other social messages such as
personality or cultural identity. The most
prominent Rwandan cultural wear is the
Umushanana, worn by both men and women

55
A Brief History of Trousers Trousers have been
worn in the Western world since ancient times.
They are now the most common form of lower-body
clothing for men. Practical and comfortable,
theres no wonder that theyve been adopted by
both sexes as part of their everyday dress.

56
Trousers were first invented because robes are
uncomfortable to wear on horseback. In fact,
those who wore trousers in battle had the upper
hand over those who wore robes. For this reason,
civilizations all over the world adopted this
form of dress to survive battle.

57
The History of Women in Trousers Despite being
worn by both sexes in ancient times, trousers
were a masculine garment for hundreds of years.
Instead, women wore long, voluminous skirts. But,
in the nineteenth century, women started wearing
a form of trousers again.

58
The History of Women in Trousers
These were worn only for horse riding, although
they wore full skirts on top of them to keep them
hidden. By the 1880s, women in the West finally
started wearing trousers for leisure activities.

59
The History of Women in Trousers
They were safer to wear when cycling, as the
trousers were far less likely to get caught in
the wheels. They also allowed greater freedom of
movement. Additionally, they were considered
healthier to wear than the cumbersome skirts they
usually wore.

Let our sisters dress plainly, as many do,
having the dress of good, desirable material,
appropriate for this age and let not the dress
question fill the mind. Our sisters should dress
with simplicity. They should clothe themselves in
modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety.
Give to the world a living illustration of the
inward adorning of the grace of God. 3SM 242.4
E.G White
75
The Influence of the Mode of Dress The love of
dress endangers the morals and makes woman the
opposite of the Christian lady characterized by
modesty and sobriety.
E.G White
76
Showy, extravagant dress too often encourages
lust in the heart of the wearer and awakens base
passions in the heart of the beholder. God sees
that the ruin of the character is frequently
preceded by the indulgence of pride and vanity in
dress. He sees that the costly apparel stifles
the desire to do good.
E.G White
77
Self-denial in dress is a part of our Christian
duty. To dress plainly, abstaining from display
of jewelry and ornaments of every kind, is in
keeping with our faith. Many need instruction as
to how they should appear in the assembly for
worship on the Sabbath. They are not to enter the
presence of God in the common
E.G White
78
clothing worn during the week. All should have a
special Sabbath suit, to be worn when attending
service in God's house. While we should not
conform to worldly fashions, we are not to be
indifferent in regard to our outward appearance.
We are to be neat and trim, though without
adornment
E.G White
79
Regarding dress reform, Ellen White states I
was directed to the following scriptures. Said
the angel, They are to instruct God's people.
She then quotes 1 Timothy 29, 10 and 1 Peter
33-5. Many look upon these injunctions as too
old-fashioned to be worthy of notice but He who
gave them to His disciples understood the dangers
from the love of dress in our time, and sent to
us the note of warning. Will we heed the warning
and be wise? CCh 181.5
E.G White

1John 320-21 And hereby we know that we are of
the truth, and shall assure our hearts before
him. 20For if our heart condemn us, God is
greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
21Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have
we confidence toward God
