1. What does it mean to the Muslim people for a woman to be uncovered?
Same answer. It says that she is immoral and it brings dishonor to her family... (No equation with submission).
2. Do the missionary women wear head coverings?
Missionary A. NO- People understand that she is a Christian rather than a Muslim.
Missionary B. YES- It is considered immoral not to wear a head covering.
3. Who have you been reaching?
Missionary A. Interestingly enough, the church is made up of foreigners in the area....
Missionary B. The Muslim people
See 1 Corinthians 9:19-22. Food for thought.  |
I do not see a problem in wearing a head covering in these situations as long as they were taught AFTER they came in the church that uncut hair is the scriptural God given covering for women in the church.
