And to think that on another forum, I was ridiculed when bringing this topic up, as several claimed to have never heard of this.
I did have one admin on that forum admit to me that she believed she had power in her hair though....even after her claiming that she'd never heard of this 'doctrine'.......LOL!
I was thinking that exact same thing! LOL
Nice to see almost Universal condemnation here though.
Lol~ Well as we can see these are pretty hot Angels, no wonder why man has so many issues with lust when he see long hair and demands she wear it up....
I was on the UPCI.org and I noticed that they had a photo contest going. I decided to browse a few of the submitted photo and I was shocked to find this among them. Is this a "new religion"?
This picture was taken at the Alabamas Ladies retreat. Sis Patty Twyman took down her hair to summon the power of the angels over the prayer requests. Many prayers were answered.
Please correct me if i'm wrong, but is that little picture in your post of a sister with her hair down and holding it on the pulpit?

This has got to be the dumbest thing I have seen. This is idolatry here. Stupid. I could not believe this makes God happy because this is not biblical.
Reading not only this, but other such comments brings tears to my eyes and causes me to weep.
I think we need to think before speaking out and calling things dumb and stupid. I will agree that we cannot be carried away with things like this, but it's things like this, and people talking about it in this way, that allows satan to get a foothold in our lives and rob us of truths written in the Word of God.
I still believe that a woman's hair is her covering, and it is a shame to cut it. I still believe the Bible teaches that if a man has long hair it is a shame.
I think the story of Mary using her long hair to dry Jesus' feet is a beautiful story. I'm sure some of those posting on this forum would have called her stupid and dumb for doing such a ridiculous thing. But sometimes we get like Paul - 'beside ourselves' - and react to the presence of God in a way that is not 'politically correct'. No, I don't think the ladies that have let down their hair are in idolatry or witchcraft, and I think we need to be careful of judging them so, lest satan take advantage of us, and rob us of the promises God has given us for our obedience to His Word.

Commitment to biblical truths is no reason to allow or accept heresy.
That Paul teaches a woman should have long hair and a man short is unquestionable. That does not mean, it is ok for our leadership to give the nod of approval to false doctrine! This summoning angels by letting your hair down is false doctrine and will lead people away from the important truths of scripture.
