We sing we want the old time religion and that it's good for us but here we are upsetting and removing the ancient landmarks set by our ancient fathers and mothers...

KoloOyinbo:


Rather more interested in the message from God than the ancient landmarks (200 year old customs) set by MAN in a society that a changed so much as to render them irrelevant. Don't really think God worries very much about a woman's hairstyle etc.

Anyway if this triviality is all Christians today have to worry about I would be a happy man! I suspect there are more serious issues to concern us and indeed God.

KoloOyinbo:


Please see the excellent explanation of 'Hiswordxray' which should make matters clear. I rather suspect that it by 'FAITH ALONE' we are saved - not whether or not a womans hair is covered.

saintlawr:
*[[1Co 11:6]] ISV* So if a woman does not cover her head, she should cut off her hair. If it is a disgrace for a woman to cut off her hair or shave her head, let her cover her own head.

I wonders what's so difficult to understand here, it cost nothing when women cover their head and cost something when they don't. The Bible says they dishonors there Head..
What the woman head here, let's see
*[[1Co 11:3]] ISV* Now I want you to realize that the Messiah is the head of every man, and man is the head of the woman, and God is the head of the Messiah.
So the head here is the man.
The head of the wife is the husband and the head of unmarried lady is her Father.
So why will a lady consciously dishonors her father or husband when the Bible said..
*[[Eph 6:2]] KJV* Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise
Cover ur head my sister.... God bless u

JesusisLord85:


You promote rebellion. Is it up to you what god "lets slide" and what he abhors?
Did the Most High give laws to prevent mere men being offended, or to stop you offending Him?
That is why I say you modern day christians are kidding yourselves. Each has his own doctrine, and forms his own god inside his head.

efficiencie:


Do you read scriptures at all!? Or do you just want to argue? Or you want to join the bandwagon of those bending a direct statute of God?

Covering your head does not save you but it is the result of obedience unto the commandments of God that have spiritual implications Now because we want to justify popular culture, justify seduction, justify changing lifestyles and yet hold on to salvation we decide to twist the glaring words of God.

Matthew 15:3
But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

There's the tradition of God and the tradition of men, choose, this day, which you seek to follow...

Faith is made alive by the works that ensued...Works that are not in accordance with the faith once delivered to the saints are dead works and kill faith!

James 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.

Jude 1:3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

Covering your head for women is for the honoring of the head and for power because of the angels...Women who violate this deny themselves power to minister and honor

RedBenson:


Ok. It's biblically and religiously wrong for women to keep their head open when in the presence of God. I and my family dont do that.

KoloOyinbo:


This 'advice' was from Paul and he did not claim it from God.

I think modern Christianity is much better than the primitive superstitious approach promoted before peoples were better educated. The Creator of the Universe concerned about the womanly fashion of ancient times. I think not. Both the Creator an indeed any Christian of today have better things to do than worry about stupid primitive taboos.

Perhaps we could actually discuss something of moral/ethical/theological importance?

JesusisLord85:


Deuteronomy 22:5 The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God.

Oh shut up!

faith without work is death

if u have faith but hey u have to put that faith to the test by being holy, spotles, blameles

u do them and not jst sit back and only keep faith

take Abraham for example the father of faith. God instructd him to kil his only begoten son he didnt sit bak and wait for God to provide a ram, no, he went up to the mount of sacrifice on the verge of sacrificing his son God saw his unabated luv for him and countd it for righteousnes

faith is an action word

If u r a girl if u knew the reason,you would never forget to cover your hair if you don't want trouble.it has somethn to do with angels

KoloOyinbo:


Possibly something to do with angels (jealous of their hairstyles obviously), possibly primitive taboo's and customs no longer relevant (to culture or even Christianity) but certainly nothing to do with how God views us or our immortal soul!

Dux01:
apostle paul said it.pls advise the girls to obey.too much knowledge before obedience is not good.oh, if u only knew the reason....

Hiswordxray:
In the book of first Corinthians Paul gave certain instructions and he gave a reason for each of these instructions. Some he said it is directly from the Lord, another he said it's from the wisdom that God gave him, yet another he said it's just an advice. But when it came to the issue of women covering their hair he said "Now if anyone is disposed to be argumentative and contentious about this, we hold to and recognize no other custom [in worship] than this, nor do the churches of God generally." (1Cor 11:16).
Paul didn't say didn't say this is directly from the Lord and he didn't say if women didn't cover their hair they will go to Hell.

But Paul said this is a custom. Custom tells you what you need to do to be a part of a group or a society. And to be a part of the Church as at that time you must cover your hair as a woman.
But the gospel tells you what you need to do to make heaven and have a foretaste of heaven on earth.

Women covering hair is nothing but a custom for believer as at the time that verse was written. But if you choose to follow it fine and if you don't want to follow it there is nothing wrong with that.
