But then some of y'all believe God will punish a lady who trimmed her hair in her lifetime in hellfire without a moment of relief for not thousands, nor millions, or billions, or trillions of years, but all eternity.
Yah I'm pretty sure its not a salvation issue (nor even a sin), if we read the same Bible.
Of course the people who are most adamant about this (eg Steve Epley) not only won't allow a man to have a beard, but willfully disobey and ignore the plain command NOT to shave. And don't even come back at me and say "that's under the law" when the exact same people use Duet 22:5 as their go to proof text second only to Acts 2:38. |
What is these 16 verses in the Bible for? I personally believe it is not God that sends anyone to hell anyway. Instead, God makes a way of escape. He is trying to keep us from hell. I never said this is a salvation issue. If you interpret a scripture to forbid something as wrong and you deliberately disobey it becomes an act of rebellion.
No matter how big or small the crime rebellion is wrong. I understand that this scripture is subject to interpretation and I am not condemning anyone for their different view. Why don't don't you shed a little light on the verse about your interpretation of it?
