…… People haven't committed suicide, gotten extremely depressed, felt embittered, abused and manipulated through McDonalds' requirements as far as I know. The UPC however, is quite a different story. A story I heard preached in UPC Bible school was of a 'holiness' preacher who preached it too hard against abortion and fornication and looking like a harlot, that one young desperate lady walked in off the street and then left that meeting and ended her life. It so affected the preacher he later lost his walk with God as well:

……….I was a hard-core-UPC-Standards-Preaching-Fanatic. I would condemn a woman to hell before she could get the word ‘pants’ out of her mouth. But the Lord is long-suffering, kind, patient, loving and full of grace. Pray and go to the scriptures to find out what to believe, instead of going to the scriptures to prove what you have already decided to believe. You’ll be amazed at what you find, just as I was.

1 Peter 3:3, 5 – “Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel...For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:”
Above, Peter instructs women to adorn themselves as the holy women of the ‘old time’ did, right? How about Rebekah? She was unquestionably a holy woman of the old time. Was she not one of the most prominent female figures of the Old Testament? Of course. So then, let’s look at some passages about Rebekah:
Genesis 24:47, 53 – “And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bare unto him: and I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets upon her hands….And the servant brought forth jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment, and gave them to Rebekah: he gave also to her brother and to her mother precious things. "(KJV)
What? One of the women of old wore jewellery? Is the Bible contradicting itself? I hardly think so. So then Peter is not forbidding jewellery outright, he is forbidding excessive use of it and telling us not to let our outward appearance be what we are known by, but instead to be known by our meek and humble spirit.
In the passage below, God himself is putting jewellery on His people and referring to Israel’s beauty as ‘perfect through my comeliness.’ In fact, this passage even seems to suggest that God was glorified to the heathen as a result of Israel’s beauty.
Ezekiel 16:9-14 – “Then washed I thee with water; yea, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil. I clothed thee also with broidered work, and shod thee with badgers' skin, and I girded thee about with fine linen, and I covered thee with silk. I decked thee also with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck. And I put a jewel on thy forehead, and earrings in thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thine head. Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil: and thou wast exceeding beautiful, and thou didst prosper into a kingdom. And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord GOD.” (KJV)
