Do You Preach Braids Are A Sin?
1Ti 2:9 likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire,
1Pe 3:3 Do not let your adorning be external--the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear--

So we can't braid hair, nor wear gold and we must go "naked?" Where do you pastor?

Re: Do You Preach Braids Are A Sin?
I knew several preaches who did.
One even preached that it represented the trinity.

If that wasn't so sad, it would be funny.

Re: Do You Preach Braids Are A Sin?
I've known of preachers that did. 
Being more practical that spiritual it always seemed to be a rather unreasonable demand. It's challenging enough to fix long hair for an 8 yr old and then to be told .....oh, btw , you can't braid your hair; it's a sin.
One preacher I know later saw the light and changed his teaching.

I think anyone who preaches anything about hair in any way has some kind of misunderstanding of the scripture or some kind of problem.

Re: Do You Preach Braids Are A Sin?
I knew at least one pastor who taught against braiding. Same one preached against any visible hair accessories (barrettes, pony tail holders, hair pins, etc).
