For Preachers to tell them they sin if they trim is outrageous imo.

On the other hand I see Paul speaking of the veil as the PRIMARY COVERING in the chapter to use when PRAYING OR PROPHESYING.

Now if a woman wishes to wear one at all times fine. But if a Preacher tells her she sins by not doing so it would be an outrage.
Clearly your view is the only one you dont find to be an outrage....

I think the greater outrage is ignoring scripture.... which happens with this particular part of scripture pretty much all over christianity.

and vs. 16 defines the covering God has given women. Paul didnt suggest a second covering.

True the ONLY defined covering in the chapter is long hair. And Paul the author defined it.

Replaced "covered" with "uncut hair" and "uncovered" to "without hair" and see what happens to that chapter. The uncut hair teaching is one of the biggest misinterpretations of Scripture in regards to holiness by OP people. The uncut hair teaching is a lie- GOD help you!

Bro. Alex,
I don't mean any offence, but you sure speak boldly for such a
young man. Boldness can also be spoken in ignorance!

Makes me wonder why this teaching bothers you so much! Could it
be because you told your sister it was okay to cut her hair!

Hugs,

Are the churches who teach this taking scripture to extreme and out of context?

What say ye?
1. I don't see how wearing head coverings could be a bad representation of Christianity. It's just a practice, based on an interpretation of scripture. Never a bad thing, IMO, even though I don't agree with the practice.

2. I don't believe God requires a second covering. To me, I Corinthians is clear that the covering is hair. Men are *covered* when they have long hair, and its a shame to them, and women are *uncovered* when they have short hair.

I do believe some people are taking it to the extreme. I tried to discuss the topic awhile back on another forum to no avail, but my question for women who wear coverings is this:

When you need to talk to God, do you have to stop and put a second covering on your head? How do you deal with the lack of freedom to talk to God at anytime? Do you get around it by making sure you are covered at all times, so that prayer is always an option? Is it forbidden to pray without the second covering? Or just discouraged?

Okay, that was more than one question. :D

We have gone back and forth on this issue, and I have spoken to others and they have been unable to give a sound Bible explanation for their uncut hair position.

The uncut hair teaching is willfully ignorance and it shows that people still wrestle with Paul's writing today- to their own destruction!

LOL!!!!

Well, that's fair, but I think Muslim women look pretty in their head scarves.

That's assuming they're liberals who let you see their faces. :D

with all the kindness I can muster Alex, I have to say that I am comforted that you dont agree with me....


but thank you for the prayer, I certainly do need Gods help in my life, of all things that is the one that we all need most. What can we do without Gods help? How can we survive without His blessing? What eternal value do we hope to have without the hand of God on our lives?

Someone throw the scripture up here so we can look at it I have read it before but would like to look at it again and we will give definitions for the words...

I'm glad that you fufill the Scripture about wrestling to your own destruction, and not me.
