If it was a sin for a man to have long hair there wouldn't be an exception that God put in the Scripture. Every other Scripture in the Bible that talks about hair growing or being cut is contrary to this interpretation of I Cor. Why do we continue to see this ONE verse this way?
We have ONE verse about baptism for the dead, there are more theories on it than you can count but we criticize people who interpret ONE verse to mean we baptize for the dead. We don’t believe baptism is for the dead. Why? Because we have other Scriptures that seem to teach otherwise.
There are numerous verses about Jesus name baptism and we interpret Jesus’ statement
Matthew 28 in light of those Scriptures.
Why are we so inconsistent about this passage
