England instituted a "pajama ban" to keep public employees from being lax. "Dressing down" or lax or casual dress standards for Sabbath services indicates a Laodicean or disrespectful approach to worship. How we dress reveals what is in our hearts. Clothing is a recurring motif throughout the Bible, symbolizing holiness and righteousness. The parable in Matthew 22:9-14 suggests that the clothing the guest wore indicated that his inward heart was unclean, showing his disrespect for the other guests and the One who invited him. God uses clothing as a symbol of what is in our hearts. God expects us to come before Him dressed appropriately.
