Are we preparing for Heaven or hell?
The Bible says at 1 John 2:15-17 that “Those who love the world, do not have the love of God in them.”

So please I urge you not to love the world and the things that are in it.
Now it is very difficult to see the difference between an unbeliever and the believer, we can’t see the difference anymore, and this is because we all dress in the same manner and in the same way.
How then do we witness to the unbeliever who is yearning for Christ? We can’t, because we are doing what they do, there is no difference whatsoever.
The scriptures have boldly stated at Deuteronomy 22:5 that: “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.” KJV
All those who do these, the Bible says, are an abomination to God Almighty, He calls those people who do those things the abominable, because they do abominable things which He (God) dislikes.
Revelation 21:8 says: “The fearful, and unbelieving, and the ABOMINABLE, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” KJV
I am entreating all my fellow women not to dress like men, because it will lead them into hell.
God said He created man in His own Image, in His likeness but now humans in our own wisdom are changing the image which was given us from our birth.
We are putting on ear-rings, necklaces, wigs and attachments to our natural God given hair, artificial eye lashes and nails, lip sticks and tattoos on our skins and eyebrows (permanent eye brow tattoo), etc.
Genesis 35:4 also says And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand and all their EARRINGS which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.KJV
These dressings are not of God but of the world. The devil is behind all of this kind of things which have become the fashion trend even for the modern-day Christian.
That is why the devil was able to tell our Lord Jesus in the Book of Matthew 4:8–10 that he will give to him the kingdoms of this world if He will bow and worship him. Jesus in turn quoted the Word of God which says only God is to be worshipped and commanded the devil away.
The modern-day Christian has adopted his or her own interpretation of the Bible, taking parts of the Bible which suits them and leaving or avoiding the rest which condemns our bad ways.
I am urging women pastors and female gospel artistes to dress in a godly manner, not as the world does, because they are carrying God’s message across the world to people.
I am pleading with them to change their way of dressing, to avoid make-ups, lipsticks, artificial nails and lashes, the attachments and wigs, etc. so they will not be indirect slaves to the spirit of this world who will use them and later send them to hell one day. They should do away with those things so the Holy Spirit can be with them, use them and give them a good reward in heaven one day.
Know that “hell” is a place God has designed for the devil and his accomplices, not for humans; as such the devil is doing everything in his power with lies, deceit and enticements to carry people there.
The Bible makes it clear that we should not make for ourselves any carved or graven image, Exodus 20:4–6.
Yet, I have heard pastors and people over the years saying God looks only in the heart and not outwardly. YES He does, God looks into the desires of your heart. The dressing you love in your heart is that which you go for, and that is what we see on your body.
Do not deceive yourselves; what is in your heart, that which you cherish or love in your heart, reflects in everything you do, the way you, as an individual, loves to dress in your heart appears on your body.

What your heart yearns for is what you go for. Our Lord Jesus makes it clear at Matthew 15:19 how things that proceed from the heart can defile a person. Jeremiah 17: 9,10 and Psalms 51:6 also tell a lot about the heart and what God searches for in us.
If you are woman consider these texts 1 Peter 3; 3 – 4; 1 Timothy 2:9 in the Bible and change your ways from today.
Malachi 3:16–18 says we must fear God and change our life, repent from our evil ways and amend our ways.
Know this that after death there are only two places to spend eternity: Heaven or hell.

Jesus Christ is calling us to come into heaven. Do not miss heaven; don’t go to hell because hell is not meant for mankind.
