Wow! Awesome story I don't find this disturbing. I'm sure sis. lumpkin probably used scripture to back her story up and probably used great detail.

There is no scripture to back that story up...you might find a book or two written by other 'trapped' people!

This doctrine is being condoned and backed by HeadQuarters. They sell the books written by Ruth Reider there.

"Our teaching from 1 Cor. 11 is pure Hair-esy.

1 Cor. does NOT teach that a woman can not cut her hair, of her own volition.

Paul simply mad a comparrison that a CORINTHIAN woman who refused to wear a veil in church brought a comparable shame on herself and her husband as a woman who had her head forcibly shaved as a punishment for her adultery.


It is the sadest thing that unlearned men have bridled women with this false teaching for years.

It's even sadder when they can not admit, due to their pride, that they have been wrong about this teaching.

Okay, maybe I'm missing something in the story, but the doctor wanted her to take her hair down why?

Maybe she was seeing her DR. because of head aches. Many women have had problem with headaches due the wieght or pull of all that hair.

We have in our bibles an example of a man, Absolam, that polled his hair (cut it) because of the weight of it. It was to much for a man but our women must bear this unnecesary burden.

True. It just makes a big deal about the doc wanting her to take it down but doesn't say why she was there or why he wanted her to do so.

I was in a crowd once of some 50,000 plus peole. In September 1992.

An event happened where it was exciting, and felt to me like any pressence of the Holy Ghost I have ever felt.

The problem being I was at County Stadium in Milwaukee.

Robin Yount had just collected his 3000th hit and the crowd went wild.

Not everything felt in the human experience is the power of God.

It's the excitement of the moment.....
I was in a crowd of 67,000 people that witnessed a miracle, the Music City Miracle!! Everyone was shockamooing! The Titans had beaten the Bills!

Thad, I am sure folks feel the same thing when they shout with their first Copperhead or Rattler.

Sounds like emotions where very high.

God may bless women for dedicating their hair to him.

But Power in the hair??
