4: Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.

1 Cor. 11:4

This is Pauls teaching given by inspiration of the Spirit. Culture has nothing to do with it. It is an ordinance of the Church. Stoneking is in violation tho he does not believe it. He is making the commands of Christ of none affect by his tradition.

If you feel this is the unalterable truth and the only interpretation, by all means, go call the man and teach him the error of his way. Don't accuse him on a discussion board he isn't a part of.

I am NOT now nor have I ever been a Stoneking fan but he teaches that LONG hair is the covering NOT an articial covering.

Well, Michael, that is your opinion, based on the idea that it is a physical covering rather than hair.

I suppose you believe the same about me, since I believe my long hair is a covering, RATHER than a hat or veil.

No matter, the point is that the statements about LS being a hypocrite for wearing a hat during prayer don't hold up. One is a hypocrite when one says one thing and does another. LS says one thing--and does it.

I didnt call him a hypocrite. I said he was in violation of Pauls teaching.

I know you didn't; someone else said (or implied) it. I'm just pointing out that the premise of this thread is rather shaky. I'm fine with discussing head coverings, but I don't really care for the spin off from LS wearing a hat to the Wall.

I really don't think it's "his" (Lee S.) tradition so much as him being obedient to the rules and regulations that govern the area in proximity to the Western Wall.

Tell you what Michael, next time you're over there just push past all of the Jewish caretakers pleading with you to stop, and just strut right up to the Western Wall, raise your hands and speak in tongues.

Let me know ahead of time when you'll be there because this sounds like a great YouTube documentary in the making. Then before they can arrest you, run down to the entrance to the Temple Mount itself, charge up the stairs and... I dunno, do whatever you feel led to do.

Pray in tongues, put your foot in the impression of the Prophet's "footprint" on the Rock at Moriah to compare shoe sizes. Just kind of roll with it and I'll keep the camera rolling.

When you get out of the hospital you will be deported and banned from the Holy Land for life. But I'll have a great YouTube video.

On the other hand, you could just put on the little hat like everybody else.

Right on target again. When I was at the wall, they wouldn't even let you come in to the area of the wall unless your head was covered. I also took my shoes off to walk through the Dome of the Stone. I am no defender of the King of Stones but jumping him for obeying the customs at the wall is weak.
