BEAUTY … OF YOUR INNER SELF / 1 PETER 3:3-4

(KJV) 1 Peter 3:3-4

True feminine beauty is not dependent on outward appearance. Fine jewelry and fashionable clothes may impress others, but they do not impress God. In fact, if such things are given priority or taken to extremes, they can actually cause a person to defy God’s standard of modesty – both in the sense of humility and personal purity (1 Timothy 2:9).

1. True beauty is a matter of inner loveliness and the enduring charm of a “gentle and quiet spirit,” which is precious to God because it follows Jesus’ example (Matthew 11:29; 21:5). (a) The adjective “gentle” describes a humble, unassuming character that always show loving concern for others and puts aside selfish interests for the good of others (Matthew 5:5; 2 Corinthians 10:1; Galatians 5:23; Philippians 2:3; Philippians 2:5). (b) The adjective “quiet” refers to an attitude or behavior that is not offensive or disruptive. That is to say, God wants outward behavior to reflect inner character, which is what matters most to Him.
2. Christian wives must remain loyal to Christ and His Word and to their husbands and families. Such loyalty will be tested in a world governed by materialism, self-assertion, seductive fashions, obsession with sex and contempt for the values of home and family.
