You can not resist opening this thread *Adult eyes only please
 
You can't cut your hair if you are a woman according to some. You must take this literally without explanation of history nor without any explanation other than it must be long because of the angles, your head, etc.

Ok, so what about women? Paul said that had to keep silence in the church and then ask their husbands about things when they get home.

Of course this one seems to be explained away lol

I would like to know if there is really someone who actually believes in both of these scriptures because you can't just follow one and be right with God.

The straight and narrow brothers and sisters.

Also, if long hair on a man is a shame and dis-honors his head or even God;

:scriptureThen how could God accept Samson's long hair and anoint him with power?

I'm not going to get into a drawn out discussion on this but...Samson was a Nazirite.

Read up an study on the Nazirite vow and you'll find the answer to your question.

My point is; a shame, is a shame, is a shame.

Apostolics teach that Long hair on a man is sin.

The way I see it, long hair for the Nazirite is a shame as in being humbled.

God was not dis-honored by the shame of Samsons hair. Shame in this case in not sin.

The scripture does not teach it as a sin. I believe it just annoyed folks.

Exactly one of the reasons there is no uncut hair requirement for woman and cut requirement for men.

Good point, Cooper.

Do you keep silent in church? Paul said for you to.
Are you following this ordinance?

Well do you? I mean Paul commanded you to be quiet. Same for uncut hair.
Isn't it in the same chapter pretty close to one another?

Walkbyfaith7 01-10-2008 10:46 AM

My bad it is a couple chapters later....here I'll post it for you.

1 Corinthians Chapter 14

33 For God is not a God of disorder but of peace. As in all the congregations of the saints,

34 women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. 35 If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.
