Bible Studies/Women being godly

Question
I would like to know how I can minister to and help a girlfriend who is a worship leader but is also striving to make it BIG in the secular music industry. She is a very pretty girl with a great body. I am mentioning this because this is the cause of the problem. She ALWAYS wears tight, sexy clothes and draws a lot of attention to her body. I believe that God had made us as women beautiful and we need to cherish that and be thankful for that. But I see a big problem with it if women abuse this, show it off and draws attention to their bodies and themselves in a sexual way. Then they are allowing the devil to use them and make men fall and lust after sin. How do I tell her and guide her to change and become the women God made her and not the women the devil wants her to be, and how do we as a worship team allow someone who is in the "worldy music scene" to also be in the church worship band. She does love Jesus and knows the Bible. I also forgot to mention that her father is the Snr Pastor and their family is VERY sensitive to be spoken to about anything!

Answer
James 4:4  Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? WHOSOEVER THEREFORE WILL BE A FRIEND OF THE WORLD IS THE ENEMY OF GOD. KJV
From your description, I would find it hard to believe the lady in question "loves Jesus" and knowing what the Bible says and believing it to be God's infallible word is two different things. I cannot counsel you on how to deal with this except to say that most likely you would be accused of being a trouble maker and could very well, with my blessing, get the Church boot. Personally, I would be looking for a different Church to attend.
I am sorry I cannot offer you more, from your description she violates every command and concept of godly womanhood. That is not someone who "loves Jesus." All you can do is live a godly righteous life and speak the truth as to why you do so.
Your Servant In Christ Jesus,

The Bible contains an answer to all things necessary to life and salvation. We many times simple do not like the answer it gives. But, if your seeking the truth of God`s word, I can give my opinion and show from the Scriptures the basis for why I believe it is the correct interpretation of the Bible on most questions.
