If it's down most people won't think much of it...oh it's down and very long...and im not saying that wearing it down is wrong.And yes when we let it down powerful things happen! There's been a time where I let my hair down and layed it across my Husbands back and his back was healed! Our Gloy is powerful! So what's wrong with wearing it up? It actually is a good way to witness to peope if I don't say. People are always asking did you just come from church? Then it turns into "hey maybe you would want to visit this church". "Sure" Then they ask for directions and they come! No im not saying that, that happens all the time but it does happen! So what's wrong with wearing our hair up or down? There is nthing wrong with it! As long when a women wears there hair down it dosen't look worldy. But we are suppose to stand out and be apart from the world....were suppose to look different. So there's nothing wrong with wearing it down or up. As long as it dosen't look worldy!

Re: Braided Hair, Expensive Clothing

On this topic, those who choose to interpret I Cor. 11:6 "shorn" as being uncut due to choosing a dictionary definition of shorn being the past tense of shear, and shear meaning "to cut"..... then I would think they have no other option but to interpret "broided" in the same manner.

Ummmm, just searched Webster's online dictionary and there is no such word. So I guess I will use Strong's Exhaustive Concordance which says this:

1) what is woven, plaited, or twisted together

2) a web, plait, braid

a) of a net

b) of a basket, in which the infant Moses was laid

c) of braided hair

(Reference used from http://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/...gs=G4117&t=KJV )

Now the dilemna, does God really want women who have long uncut hair to not braid it??

It certainly appears that if OP's are going to use this method of defining shorn as being uncut, then the only option left is to teach that women CAN NOT braid their hair.

However, to complicate things even further... one might choose to use Strong's Exhausitive Concordance to define the word "shorn".

1) to sheer: a sheep

2) to get or let be shorn

3) of shearing or cutting short the hair of the head

(Reference from http://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/...gs=G2751&t=KJV )

Now, what about using the Bible to define what shorn means? What about all the other scriptures that use shorn or shaven to mean close to the skin? Should we use those Biblical examples to define this word... or should we just use the dictionary, but only in this one instance! For sure, we wouldn't want to follow that same method of translating when it comes to "broided"....

Every woman like to be a fashionable and attractive person, therefore it doesn't matter if they used expensive clothes.
