I thought of that, too, after I wrote what I did.

Re: Black Apostolic Hair blog touts Stoneking and
First of all, I think it's really cool that the author of the blog is growing her hair out naturally and demonstrating how it can be done without trimming, if you take care of your hair throughout the growth process. That's a big trend among some secular [black] groups anyway. (Going au naturel with their hair.)
Secondly, it's disheartening to see the extra-biblical HMH doctrine spread around, and used as a prop to help women feel better about their long hair, and to motivate them to keep it uncut. *sigh*

Re: Black Apostolic Hair blog touts Stoneking and
I think Dan needs to quit meddling.
I really like both long hair on women, and the fact that I don’t need to pray nearly as much because my woman’s long hair is protecting me.

Cuts the hour of prayer right down to about 75 seconds of high octane download eh?

You are much more of a theologian than I am, however I do have a question.
What I have always been taught and read would lead me to believe that what Christ did on the Cross, grants me salvation.
There is no work of mine that can grant me salvation.
However, additional power with God results from following after him with my entire being.
Am I on a wrong track here, in your opinion?

What about fasting that is something you can do to affect power with God, don't you think?
