Haney Teaches Hair with a Carrot? ....
 

I was perusing CLC's Summer 2010 periodical "The Cross" ....

where there is an article entitled, Looking for that Blessed Hope: PreTrib or Post Trib" in which Phil Dugas' passive agressively attacks those who who hold a post tribulation view as not having any "solid scriptural basis" and categorically calls the pre-trib view "Apostolic" .... Sorry Irwin.

.... and another article by Kenneth Haney, titled "Israel's Right to Land: Zionism to Prevail" .... in which the former UPCI pontiff asserts a that Christians have a duty to support Zionism.

Kenneth Haney writes, "As Christians, until our departure happens, we must become unwavering supporters of Zionism. (pg 24) .....

and another pretty good article by Eli Lopez simply called "Repent" where he speaks of the forgotten "relic" of repentance beginning his piece with the question "Whatever happened to repentance?" ....


I came across an ad insert on page 19 promoting a 4 part DVD series by Nathaniel Haney named "Holiness Sermon Series".

The description of disc 4 reads:

"Pastor Nathaniel Haney helps godly women understand why Christian women do not cut their hair and the reward that comes from being submitted to God through obedience."

Has anyone heard this sermon series? Anyone have this series or disc 4? I reserve judgment on its content until I hear it.

I know Lee Stoneking speaks about being with Nathaniel when he instructed the ladies in Haney's church to pray with their hair down and how this resulted in "many miracles".

Does Nathaniel teach HMH?

You know... I never thought that I'd actually be even somewhat in favor of "teaching hair with a stick."

I guess I'm a little bit slow, or is it that nothing suprises me anymore........

when I saw the title of this thread I was expecting a quote somewhere along the lines of "Just look at how natural long the greens are on carrots, DOTH NOT EVEN NATURE TEACH YOU."

I must be missing something.
Carrot? As in Bugs Bunny?

Carrot and a stick approach to getting the desired behavioral outcomes? "Haney" appears to be teaching that there are benefits to women not cutting their hair - like perhaps "angelic" benefits (the carrot approach).

Despite DAII's obvious chagrin over that one, I suppose we could ask if that isn't "better" than sending everyone of to hell (the "stick" approach).

Another usage of the idiom involves the practice of tying a carrot onto the end of a stick and dangling it out in front of a mule pulling a cart. As the mule approaches the carrot - the cart moves forward so the "reward" is always just out of reach and never obtained.

The "carrot" analogy is a frequent criticism of works based religions. Some sort of "reward" is always promised but that reward is always just out of the reach of the followers of the religion.

"Perhaps you didn't have an angel show up and make a difference when your child died of leukemia - but stay faithful and NEVER trim or cut your hair and we're pretty sure that there'll be angels next time!

"Or the time after that..."

Not always... when blessings do happen, hair can easily be credited as "obedience". "See, I didn't cut my hair and this happened!"

They just reached their carrot.

The usage I bolded is a very common approach of Faith Healers as well.

Tithe and prosperity preachers as well.

And "the BIG REVIVAL" that is just around the corner" is another carrot on a stick (in my opinion) because (in my opinion) we ARE in end time revival
