Shave my Head, Wear a Beard - New Conviction?
Hello all,
I told my wife this morning, that if I was to really believe a women must have long, UNCUT hair, then after reading the "Holiness for Men" article, I really truly feel like I would have a new conviction to keep my head shaved, and wear a beard.
If I as a minister am going to hold a standard of long uncut hair for woman, based on my style of interpreting scripture, then how can I do anything less than preach a standard of shaved or shorn heads for men, and they wear a beard for separation of the sexes??
Seriously, how could you in good conscience, preach/teach any different??

You forgot wearing the robe while slowly walking around, chanting, and occasionally hitting your head with a board.

If they have long uncut hair, why do I need to be completely bald in order to have a separation of sexes....BTW it's not a separation but a distinction...that is IF the whole issue of hair is about a distinction of sexes...WHICH IT IS NOT. So your entire point is moot.

If you pay attention to the threads opposing "magic Hair" you would have read this already/
Paul starts off with
1Co 11:3 But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife is her husband, and the head of Christ is God.
1Co 11:7 For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God, but woman is the glory of man.
1Co 11:8 For man was not made from woman, but woman from man.
1Co 11:9 Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
1Co 11:10 That is why a wife ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.
Notice verse 10..."that is why". refers to the antecedent subject being discussed.
It is a symbol of authority, symbolizing Order of creation and headship.
1Co 11:15 but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering.

I pay close attention to those threads, but that doesn't mean I remember who says what. So I didn't remember your philosophy about hair.
