------------------------- Purpose of Holy Magic Hair Blog: Heretical Doctrine
"For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels." - 1 Corinthians 11:10
For years, some Christians, predominantly conservative Baptists, Methodists and Pentecostals, have asserted that the Bible teaches that a woman should not cut her hair. Most born-again Christians believe to the contrary. This debate is based on a passage in 1 Corinthians 11. There are compelling and convincing interpretations on both sides of this issue.
In recent years,however, a dangerous heretical doctrine has emerged claiming that an added reason why a woman's hair should not be cut is because it gives her power with angels citing 1 Corinthians 11:10. Proponents teach that a supernatural power and authority is bestowed by her obedience in not cutting her hair. Some claim this directly results in angelic protection, miracles,healings, special revelation, God's favor and blessing in their loves ... and even can affect one's salvation. Sadly, occult writings are offered up as substantiation for this paradigm.
This blog is an effort to uncover the untruths of this dangerous heretical doctrine that replaces Jesus and the power of God's sovereign Spirit with hair and legalism. We seek only to warn the Body of Christ of this teaching and not to undermine God's call on the lives of those who teach or believe this doctrine. Believers on both sides of the hair issue stand against this extrabiblical heresy.
We also hope to share studies on both sides of the hair issue for our readers. ----------------------------------------------------------
We invite you to read the blog articles that are forthcoming. You will be able to comment about the blogs. These comments will be heavily moderated.
We are also actively seeking bloggers who are willing to donate the talents and time to writing articles on this issue.
Bloggers must commit to not personally attacking the teachers and believers of this doctrine ... but rather help uncover the errors of this doctrine.
Articles should share biblical principles and personal insights about this doctrine in question and the hair issue in general --- by sharing the truth in love.
If you are interested in becoming a blogger for this effort please PM me.
Why go somewhere else ? There are thousands of pages of the same right here.

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter
7For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
8For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man.
9Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
10For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.
11Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
12For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
13Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
-------------------------------------------------
vs 10 makes reference to the preceeding verse.
Because man was created first, then the woman for the man, she is therefore under the authority of her husband.
As to the angels there are several takes on that. None of them change the fact that hair is not the topic in those verses. The topic is authority which is/was shown by symbolic covering of the head.

It was never about hair, nor will it ever be about hair. It is about submission to authority. I don't know how hair ever got into this scripture since it is plainly not there.

4Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.
5But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
6For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
---------------------------------------------
There is reference to hair here, but only to support the custom of veiling when praying or prophesying.
"...but if it be a shame"
to have short hair or shaved head, let her be covered.
