I wouldn't know. God seems to be preferential with location. In Abuja, a good Christian attending 'spirit led church' can come to church with trouser but a taboo in my town... And that's God's way is what we don't know.



Should culture influence Christianity, keeping in mind that culture and religion are interwoven.


People pray and fast all day, and they still come up with different and almost opposing views of God.

Christianity is almost 2000 yrs old and we can't still figure it out all.



****Are you sure this thing is meant for us human?

On a lighter note,
It depend on the century, you know something that is right 400 yrs ago might be wrong now.


Pls, is there any website to worship online, not streaming website.
He's not preferential with location as you put it. He works with your conviction and faith rather. Remember that whatever that's not done with faith is SIN. If you grew up in a city, rocking trousers as a lady can't baffle you a bit and you can go ahead to be the holiest you can worshipping in truth and spirit. A lady who was raised in hinter lands(villages) has grown up to see ladies that rock trousers as prostitutes lacking morals and needing God in their lives. That's her conviction. Now if she relocates to the city and see everyone rocking trousers and still serving God beautifully avoiding immoral acts, she will reconsider her belief pattern but if she ever decide to wear same trousers, she will never be comfortable in them and this can cause her to be sinning because the act is not done in faith(something deep down in her is telling her that this is not who she is). So for her to continue serving God in spirit and in truth, she's got to continue with her skirt and gowns, lack of make up etc. So location creates a belief pattern. What is bottom line is not losing your faith.

I don't think religions bind us about hairstyles. They teach us humanity, and its level is declining. Unluckily!

Christianity was the the most effective weapon the Europeans employed in conquering Africans and South Americans. And when I said conquering, I meant not just physical conquest, but also mental, spiritual and cultural conquest. Imagine, we bow before white gods and goddesses, we speak white languages, think like white men, bleach our skin and hair to look white. It will take us thousands of years to free ourself of mental slavery.

The conquestidors did not teach us technology, they did not teach us agriculture, they did not teach us to be self sufficient. They taught us to speak their language and to worship their gods, so that we will forever be dependent on them for survival.

The whites are landing a machine on Mars, they are creating new vaccines to cure novel diseases. We on the other hand are fasting and praying, while begging them to dash us vaccines to cure us form dying out.
And most ridiculous of all, we are more obsessesd with researching which hairstyles are good for christians.

True.

Christianity is based on principle and not what you do per se.
For me personally if I get to a saner society, I am getting my dreadlocks straight and won’t think twice.

But down here in my area, I prefer to look simple instead, if I do dreadlocks I will mislead some young folks who would confuse me with the bad eggs of the society, also I would need to explain my ass to every dick and Harry that could be my potential helper due to their myopic ways of judgement. But then at a point I guess I would give a Bleep anymore especially when I am made. My works would speak for me a such point both to young and old.

This ain’t tied to religion or any dogmatic rules and regulations

Well said brother, na wetin dey my mind you type come outside.

Re: Are Secular Hairstyles Good For Christians? by chrisooblog: 1:31pm On Feb 21, 2021
OP i understand you are trying to speak about decency but how do we define Christian or "secular" hairstyles? Because cultures and people differ when it comes to hairstyles. If I shave my hair bald even though it looks decent does that make me a Christian?

I wonder too o. People don't know that hairstyle has got nothing to do with u serving God or not. One day in my church, a so called deaconess approached me and complained about my afro and beard. I obliged to her and promised her I would do something about it not because I thought there was sense in whatever she told me but just to please her. The next Sunday she saw me again in church as I had taken everything off(molo). She complained and I didn't know when I shouted haba aunty, I keep hair, u complain, I remove the hair u complain, make I remove my head? Hypocrisy is what will make one complain about another persons appearance.

Is there moderation in worldliness
that's were the Spirit of GOD comes. HE will make u so uncomfortable when u try to do things or wear ungodly things. But many have stubbornly refused his corrections and HE left many since they won't listen so u see all forms of satanic dressing even among so called Christians

Re: Are Secular Hairstyles Good For Christians? by Brian47(m): 2:09pm On Feb 21, 2021
There's no such thing as circular hairstyle.
even dreadlocks is natural. Before the whites came I'm pretty sure every one all had dreads because there was no clipper or barbers before the white came. Then the whites hated our natural grown hair then brought this perception that short hair is better. They passed that hatred to our great grand parents then they passed it to us then some people would manipulate it and say its a sin to carry dreads or colour your hair.

if full hair or dreads offends god, then he would have never have given us in the first place

There must be the practice of moderation in all Christians.
Now are u sick or in dire straits, find ur way to the living Faith church cananland OTA. Time is 11:45qm today. Bring ur annointing oil and family plus friends. Papa Oyedepo will be anoiting everyone in that service. No.more secret tears. Congratulations cool

@bold on point!

OP mentioned bone straight hair.... Is it the cost he is disputing? Because none straight hair is just that: a certain type of straight weave/wig.

@cost: it depends on your pocket and back to moderation: Madam Folorunsho Alakija buying a weave of N500k is not same as a regular Jane doing same.

Moderation and ensuring these items don't become idols.

Mythical god? Am sure you aren't referring to the Lord Almighty, the Alpha and the Omega, Oba ase iyin ohun , iwaju Ogun eyin Ogun, the Lion of the tribe of Judah. Oba to'n pa, Oba to'n ji.

Even the other gods dare not arouse his anger. Voice thunderous than the sound of thunder.

Re: Are Secular Hairstyles Good For Christians? by orlahboi(m): 5:04pm On Feb 21, 2021
Our problem is that we confuse morality for spiritually. In both, moderation is the key. Any hair cut is allowed in the western world as a Christian but might not be allowed here because of culture and background. That doesn't make it a sin.
