That's why we should learn the difference between principles to live by and heaven and hell issues.

There is a principle in the word of God that a woman is to have long hair. Many have performed hermeneutical gymnastics by taking that principle to the extreme, and made cutting the hair of a woman a heaven or hell issue.

If you think it is a sin for a woman to cut her hair at all, then there is no situation that changes that. If you simply see it as the principle it is, then this would be no big deal, she would cut it out. JMHO

Awesome words....thank youi!!! I hope Steadfast can find some peace in all these posts and help him mom to have peace in what she needs to do...

um, maybe an extreme situation, but what if a woman got her hair caught in a tree like Absolom, would she have to just hang there, or maybe cut the branches and have twigs in her hair?

Well, some would think she was being judged like Absolom. Can't win with some people.

What about a woman like my sister. The weight of her thick long hair gave her a headache everyday. Was this medical?

She did cut it, and was judged by many.

She should have prayed for a healing. That's what the cons would say.

If a woman curls her hair in her fingers and the hair breaks. Is she guilty of the sin of cutting her hair?

If a woman is not to cut her hair? Why do they shave their arms, under arms and legs? What is so Angelic about the head? Why do many woman go to Electralsis to zap unwanted hair on their upper lip and face? Last time I check that is hair on your head? If you are about the letter of the law?

Stop plucking eyebrows and chins..
