They are looking for something deeper in God and they get hit with such nonsense. THATS my concern.

I believe I answered you in my above post, but still don't think you answered me. What if a woman doesn't see wearing a veil as important? Do you allow Jesus to take care of it?

Just butting in here for a moment...

As I am sure you know, I believe that Christian women ought to wear a headcovering. And I am not afraid to teach it to people who do not (in fact I did a couple weeks ago). But all I do is lay out the scripture and encourage folks to follow the Word. Whether they do or not is their business. I am not an enforcer. And in regards to headcovering and 1 Cor 11, I don't see anything in that passage where Paul threatens hell or promises heaven to anyone involved in the discussion. We ought to teach everything in the Word, but we ought to teach it with the same emphasis the Word gives it, in my opinion.

Cool, I don't teach a head covering, but a sister who wears one will not be body slammed if she doesn't get a "revelation" in some prescribed amount of time. As far as any threats in 1st Corinthians 11 we have the apostle calling out women saying that they are bald if they are not covered. During the time of the apostle female baldness wasn't a good look. Again, I teach what I see in the word, and I don't see a head wrap. Your opinion is well noted by me, and you know I love your opinions.

I'll just have to straighten you out over a pit cooked ribeye, baked potatoe, and hot and fresh, homemade, buttered bread.

Amen, sounds great, how about purple yams, smothered in butter, with strips of bacon to go along with the ribeye, and fresh bread?
