There's nothing like HAIR covering but HEAD covering and the HAIR of a woman was given to her as a covering for her HEAD.

Read the passage given by my brother God2man, there is no mention of low cut there but women shaven cos it's a shame for a woman to be shaven. The hair is given her for her HEAD covering.

1 Corin 11: 5-13 5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as having her head shaved. 6 For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.

7 A man ought not to cover his head,[a] since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. 8 For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; 9 neither was man created for woman, but woman
for man. 10 It is for this reason that a woman ought to have authority over her own head, because of the angels. 11 Nevertheless, in the Lord woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.
12 For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.

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.


Ur hair is ur headtie! But its more decent to cover it when comunicating with God. Thats my own opinion anyway.

First you must not cultivate the habit of using abbreviations to represent christ.

Take you time to type out his name...and am sure he would be proud of you smiley

Its mentioned in the bible, but if you ask me, I'd say it doesn't really matter.

My knowledge of christianity tells me that God is not interested in your outward appearance. What he values most is your heart.

So even if you put on a scarf and cover yourself from head to toe...if you don't give him your heart, it still won't make any difference.

Also its sad to see that most pastors who should be winning souls for God, are busy playing simon says with their members. Christ's death on the cross was to redeem us so the main goal of every preacher is to ensure that christ's death wasn't in vain and not to constantly give their members all sorts of dress codes...

Finally, I would therefore suggest that you spend more time seeking his face and studying his word and forget about all these dos and donts pastors.
