Re: Uncut Hair

I think she should keep her hair as long as possible, to show distinction from men, but upkeep may involve trimming from time to time.

I have a friend, whos' daughter had hair that was able to drag on the ground, so she cut it a foot or so higher.(she mow keeps it about knee length.)

Re: Uncut Hair

Elder Verbal Bean taught that lady who cuts her hair has no power in her walk with God or prayer life because she is in rebellion against her husband and against God.

I believe that.

He was probably wrong about a few other things too like most ministers are.

Re: Uncut Hair

Well, that may be correct, but that is not what the Bible says.

What about ladies going through chemo?

When their hair falls out during the treatment, are they less spiritual?

Re: Uncut Hair

The part of Corinthians 11 that is up for debate to me is, should a woman wear a veil? The part about a woman not shaving or shearing (cutting) her hair is clear. Whether or not it is salvation issue is for God to decide. I would not want to allow things in my life that is contrary to the word of God.

Me too, but it just says long/short HAIR.

Not vails, turbans, hats etc.

Re: Uncut Hair

14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.




The only covering mentioned in the chapter is hair.
