The way I see it, God never said that nudity per se had become immoral

it first in importance. For is it like the foundation for the entire faith. I
accepted it from Christ. For this reason, as I held this faith earlier, you must
hold it. And as I accepted it as primary in importance, so now you are wrong
when you doubt it even for a moment.

"That is, that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures:"
