Re: Hair As A Covering

I am going to take the liberty to repost what Aquila wrote... seems very accurate to me in modern day language. It really is not needful to add or take away.


The dispute (if there needs to be one) should be solely centered on whether the custom then is or should be the custom now.

AQUILA:

We learn several key things in I Corinthians 11:
- A man is not to pray or prophesy with anything hanging down over or covering his head.

- Any woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled or uncovered dishonors her husband because it is immodest and is the same as if she were sheered or shaven bald like an unfaithful woman.

- Wearing the veil is an outward sign of a woman’s submission to her husband

- This properly places the woman under her husbands authority (whose head is Christ).

- The submission of a woman to her husband doesn’t mean that he is superior to her, but rather both need each other.

- Just as the woman is mans glory, a woman’s hair is her glory. Therefore both the woman and her hair should be covered in modesty.

- As a fitting example, even nature testifies that a woman should be veiled.

- A woman’s hair is meant to be wrapped and covered.

- This was a custom observed and obeyed by the entire Church of God for centuries.

Cindy, We believe the long, un-cut hair IS the COVERING! Her hair is given her FOR A COVERING! 1 Cor. 11:15. We don't believe we need a veil or other substitute covering. GOD gave a covering.

1 Cor. 11:15 "But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.

Well it does say that.

Sort of... There is really no direct reference to hair being "uncut", nor anything regarding "substitution".

Hey Pastor I think this verse belongs on this thread also...

(II Ti 3:7) Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

You let it grow, then cut it. Then repeat cycle.
