Long Hair
love_magnified:
Amen Dennis,
Isaiah 53:2
He grew up before him like a tender shoot and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.
--- Quote ---Jesus specifically talked about sexual imorality, but never did Jesus talk about hair.
so these two things are not even in the same league.

I was basically following your reasoning that if God creates it then why bother hindering it. My point is basically that God creates thorns, then tells us to stay away. If we touch them we get hurt.

Well Dennis,
you do make a valid point. as usaul. :lol:
But I still doubt God will think any less of me due to my physical appearence i.e. hair, clothes, etc...
i'm still not convinced what Paul said about the hair, wasn't just having to do with the culture there and then. notice he said shame, not sin.

I think the shame is a man looking like a woman, or intentionally looking like a woman.

Hi Davey, reread my post, my conclusion is that we should not offend out of our own vanities or personal tastes, but at the same time not compromising Truth for popularity.
This "covering" has more to do with how we conduct ourselves in society than it does with absolutes in regard to fashion. Never did I imply that we were to be lukewarm or cavalier in His Truth.
