Re: cut the corners of their hair

So y'all think this law is still valid?? Must not cut the corners of your hair, or trim the sides of your beard??

Re: cut the corners of their hair

seems they better stop eating lots of foods, go back to wearing dresses, not mix the materials of their clothes, and the list goes on and on.

does God want us wearing a Fu Manchu beard(not you of course). I don't think so. This is a example of how God does care about appearance and how it looks to others. Does not save you but it's his desire. Just my opinion.

No no, God loves Fu Manchus! But He doesn't like goatees. He does like handlebars. Doesn't like.....

Maybe you get my point. Actually probably not, so I'll spell it out: what makes anyone think God even has a "taste" in hair styles or beards or clothing or etc.??? OK, sure, someone wrote their opinions on God's tastes many years ago, and a lot of people today believe those opinions are actually God's own opinions. But come on. Seriously. Why would He care one way or another?

Not sure why he would. Styles do mean things. Just like certain styles give a certain impression. Maybe God did not like the impression that it gave. I don't know as it is speculation on my part of his intentions. All I know is that he spoke about this style in the law of cutting the corners etc...

All I know is that someone wrote that God spoke this. You believe it, I have my doubts. These days, a lot of people make things up and say God said them. I think people have been doing this for many centuries.

I find many know more about God's law than you would think. Never judge ones understanding of something by what you see in a forum.
