I was SO strong about this years ago- and now it's becoming fuzzy and cloudy. I was hoping for some knowledgable input from folks who have 'been there' and 'done that'...42 views and 7 responses- are we afraid of the ambush, ladies??
Thanks anyways!!  |
Annie,
I use to believe that it was a hell issue. Then I studied the hair doctrine for myself. No longer do I believe it is heaven and hell. However, I do believe that if someone has a conviction against it, they shouldn't do it. I do believe women should have long hair. After all, it is our glory. And it isn't much glory balled up on top of someone's head.
I am UPC. I do trim my hair. My pastor does not preach standards. We have people on the platform and in leadership positions that trim their hair. It is long but trimmed. I personally know pastors in UPC that do not believe it is a heaven and hell issue. I am a UPC pastor's daughter. My husband is a minister. I think the pastors that don't believe it is heaven or hell, just don't deal with it unless asked.
On the other hand, I know plenty of UPC pastors that believe you WILL go to hell for trimming your hair.
No one can decide what is right or wrong for you. You have to put aside everything you have been brainwashed with and decide for yourself. You may come to conclusion that you feel it is wrong to trim it and if so, so be it. Good luck.
