I have not heard that preached in years but many do still require it just on the platform probably because the dresses are not as long as they use to be???

Mark, why make everything about "rules". Some things are scripture and some are pastoral preference. It's no wonder there is so much friction on this website. Take a chill pill.

It might take me a few more minutes a day to care for it.
But I would say that people are on chat rooms and forums longer
than it takes me to wash and dry and comb my hair.
And they could be spending that time in prayer.

Amen sister! agreed

I give a 20% rule in the UPCI the other 80% do the don't ask don't tell policy.

My family and circle of friends do not have an issue discussing it.

They simply do it but do not believe that ladies who cut their hair are no more saved or lost than they are...

I find the folks who actually believe they are only saved because they do not cut their hair find it rude.....

I simply just ask the questions.

And never get the answers....

Nate, you sound so hateful and bitter, but I happen to like you in spite of it. The hair cutting issue will not be resolved on this forum. My husband and I choose to teach people to fall "in love" with Jesus Christ rather than throw a book of rules and regulations at them. People say they love Jesus, but watch someone in the church hurt or offend them and they run from "the one they say they loved". It's a bunch of hogwash! They may have "loved" Him as they love their car or their parents. But how many are "IN LOVE" with Jesus Christ. I am "in love" with my husband therefore I do what makes him happy and he does the same for me. However, above what makes my husband happy there is someone above my husband whom I am to please...Jesus Christ. I am "in love" with my maker and when I find what brings a smile to His face, I AM GOING to do it.
