Why Are Ladies Uncovering Their Heads In Church Nowadays by Ukutsgp(m): 9:48am On Oct 18, 2013
Why are ladies opening their head in church? Is it to display their new hairstyles or what? Is it proper?

Now, some questions we would be confronted with is as follows:

1. When ladies open their head in church, does it not contradicts paul's teaching in 1corinthians 11:1-16.

2. Are they not usurping men's authority for not putting a covering on their head?

3. Does women in bible days go to church without covering their head with a veil or a scarfs? Or they open it.

4. Is the symbol of authority that paul talks about in 1corinthians 11:10 the woman's long hair or what?

5. If the woman's long hair is her glory does she suppose to display that glory in God's presence? Or cover it up and submit to his glory? Isaiah 42:8.

6. When a lady display her long hair in church is she not competing with God's glory? And that she lacked submission to God's authority and the headship of the man?

7. Is it really true that women's long hair is given to them for a covering?

8. Are ladies suppose to prophesy, pray etc without covering their head or hair?

I want you to drop your comment and provide answers to these questions.

One thing i still fail to understand is why a woman cannot just have her hair covered for just 3 to 4 hours of service. If a lady is truly beautiful she doesn't have to leave her hair to full display before she is counted as pretty. I guess its the vain mind of today's women who believe the church is a place to show off and flirt.

How does it concern you? Go to church and listen to the Word, not peer about looking at uncovered female heads. Does the covering (or lack thereof) make them more/less faithful or spiritual? Making nountains out of molehills. Misogyny according to Apostle Paul.

I think you meant "leave their hair uncovered". if I see a lady with an open head, in church or anywhere, I would run!

read ur bible it is head cos the hair is part of the head. I mean ladies not putting a covering on their head during worship. Something like veil or scarf.

From the scripture, it is not right 4 ladies to open their head in church. They ought to cover their hair with a scarf or head tie

Have you been to all churches in the world before making such a bogus claim? Well, in my church, ladies don't open their head because it's impossible to do that without surgery.

you all fail to read I Cor. 11:16
But if any man seem to be contentious (that is to disagree with the doctrine of covering the hair), we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
it means if you go to some churches in Western countries, you'll classify all their women as sinners.

Not you, but the women who do not agree with that doctrine are free to do so. it isn't wrong to leave your hair uncovered to church.

Re: Why Are Ladies Uncovering Their Heads In Church Nowadays by babestell(f): 5:50pm On Oct 30, 2013
I think one of the reasons why the practice of women covering their hair is losing ground and probably fade very soon is because it is being enforced for the wrong reasons. Most people talk about submission, authorithy or power. In this age and time when females are accomplishing as much as their male peers, those words are a big turn off. At least it is for me. Is it the hanky some ladies use or flimsy scarf that is now the covering of hair, the only reason I cover my hair in church is as an act of humility before God, just a little way I show him that I depend totally on him and I only do that in front of the blessed sacrament. Just my own take

Also considering the verses below, is there any other way we can choose to intepret the context. Perhaps to mean that the issue is subject to the prevailing culture of the enviroment
13 Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? 14 Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him, 15 but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering. 16 If anyone wants to be contentious about this, we have no other practice—nor do the churches of God.

Now I understand why people say common sense is not common. Is it right for a Lady to leave her hair uncovered in the church?
