Wearing White Clothes(wedding clothes) Regardless of Gender
Members of Shincheonji Church of Jesus wear white clothes to worship God. White clothes symbolize purity and cleanliness, an order according to the Bible. Jesus who took away the sin of the world made a covenant with his blood. According to Rev 5 and 7, Jesus frees people from their sins by his blood.
Their robes are washed to be made white with the blood of Jesus. In Rev 19, “fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear" in the wedding banquet.
The fine linen represents the righteous acts of the saints (Rev 19:8). The church members wear the robe of heart cleansed with the word of living water,
and worship God in clean and tidy white clothes according to the Bible.

Kneeling Down Before God with a Humble Heart
Worshipping means to “to show respect and to bow down.”
When we meet elders or people whom we respect, we go with a humble heart; to “respect” is to kneel down and listen until we are told to sit down comfortably.
Worshipping is to honor God with the heart “to listen to the Words of God, repent on the transgressions and sins of one’s own past,
and to resolve to live a transformed life.”(Rm 12:1) Worshipping is to kneel down with a humble to heart to pray.
