Organizations don't preach. Men do. And most men don't preach against HMH because its such an outlier, its like expecting an organizational decree regarding flat earth.

Again, I've been around apostolics from one coast to the other and in between, and never even heard of this stuff until these forums. Never even heard of it back in the days of Delphi forums, either.

My wife and daughters have long hair. When people comment to them about hair its always "Oh, you have such gorgeous hair! It's so long!" with an occasional "Wish my hair was that long" thrown in. They do get asked "So, why do you wear a head covering again? Are you Pentecostal? Mennonite? Amish?" Which immediately results in an impromptu Bible study on hair, headcoverings, prayer, the Holy Ghost, Jesus, the Bible, separation from the world, repentance, eternal life, etc.
Amen bro, amen.

I can't say the same, but I can say that it is a mixed bag.

Again, the organization has no statement saying that they believe it.
Many ministers don't believe it, and are vocal against it.

Re: Submission? Or Power and Control?

I remember an evangelist telling the females in the church, "Let your hair down! Let your hair down!" He really worked them into a frenzy.

Maybe ILG and PO need to let their hair down... and shake it in the wind. If only they knew what witches know.

Re: Submission? Or Power and Control?

I remember sitting in services where LS was the speaker. He told these stories about special powers women had because they didn't cut their hair. Strange, nothing stood out until years later after I joined a forum. LOL.

Maybe the average church goer isn't going to process this stuff. In one ear, out the other.

Then, by your logic "if a man have long hair-it is a shame unto him". If the hair of a woman is uncut hair, then as long as a man trims it, he's all good. It's not "long". This makes no sense.

Quote:
Is that what is says? It says hair as women. If we go with your idea of "long" we would need to determine what long is? Longer than a man? They cropped their hair, polling, which looked like what the Romans wore. Therefore if we discard growth, and take your "long" our lenght would be shoulder? That is what the Greek word means.
If we go by your idea, long means uncut, so men can trim the ends a little and have "short" hair.

That's a broad question. But I feel confident that it's not when a woman cuts her hair. If a man tries to control a woman by preaching she will go to hell if he doesn't interpret the bible the way he says she should, he could well be sinning against her if he is twisting her head. It's called abuse and it's what the Pharisees did and Jesus preached against that a lot.

The people who have been harmed by this teaching are all over. If you listen.
