Anyway I am aware many Christian women wear bikinis at beach. Anyway do you think that wearing bikinis is immoral? Or you think its ok? I am aware over a hundred years ago daylight swimming was not allowed at beaches, and even if women could go swimming in beach they have to be segerated from the men, and the beaches were segerated out of modesty.

Why do you think it is wrong for Christian women to wear a bikini at the beach?

Do you think it's wrong for men to show their breasts at the beach?

Depends on how you look and how much you show.

Yes it is very wrong for women to wear bikinis out in public view.

However, there is not in everyone that knowledge; for some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. But food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse. But beware lest somehow this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to those who are weak. For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol’s temple, will not the conscience of him who is weak be emboldened to eat those things offered to idols? And because of your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died? But when you thus sin against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never again eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

It's always the same for these kinds of things. If it causes your brothers to stumble, then don't. However, don't be legalistic and say it's wrong, because it isn't in and of itself.

That's legalism-A list of do's and dont's. A Christian should let the Holy Spirit lead them. A Christian; man or woman should ask is what I am wearing causing someone to stumble or sin? and is what I am wearing honoring God?
