Facial Hair - Your stance on it please

[Thad]

I know I know !! we've discussed this before but i would like everyone to refresh me on your personal stance on this issue .


Do you feel it's a sin ?

Do you feel it's not a sin but should still be a standard ?


If you are OR you was a pastor, what would be your rule on this ?

I'm with Rhoni on this one.

I think it is a sin for women to have facial hair.

Nope... It is a absolutely and totally man made standard which lies completely outside the word of God.

I am not a pastor... if I were I would not have a rule against facial hair.

(And no... I do not now have, never have in the past had, and never plan to in the future have.. facial hair)

My personal stance? I stand on my beard. And it hurts.

I really don't think God is overly concerned about beards. Or mustaches. Or facial hair. This is one of those areas that Paul wrote about, "Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind." BTW, I do have a beard... but its not long enough to stand on. (Unless someone else is doing the standing. Ouch!)

But would you have a platform standard against it ?

some pastors don't have a rule against it for those who just attend but if they are on the platform they have to shave
