Is Magic Hair Another Gospel?

[harleypreacher]

Any woman that teaches or believes that she has special power with angels because of her uncut hair believes another gospel other that that was preached by Paul and the Apostles.

Paul directed some strong questions to the Galatians when they were requiring the Gentiles to be circumcised for salvation.

Galatians 2:2-5
2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.
5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Did you receive the Holy Ghost by your works or by faith?

He goes on to say, you are so foolish to have started in the Spirit, now you’re trying to be made perfect or holy in the flesh.

Did you receive miracles by your works or by faith?

Do women receive salvation by uncut hair or by faith?
Do women receive miracles by uncut hair or by faith?

Are we so foolish to start by receiving the Holy Ghost, but now we have added works to the list to make us perfect? Paul’s says if anyone preaches anything other than Jesus, man or angel let him be accursed. The gospel is not uncut hair on women that brings salvation and miracles, but that we receive everything through faith in Jesus Christ.

This is how Paul begins Galatians:

Galatians 1:6-9
6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

If you preach that a woman’s salvation and power comes from uncut hair, you’re cursed.

If Gentiles weren't required to be circumcised for salvation, how is uncut hair on women going to bring salvation or power?

No its not another Gospel. Magic Hair Doctrine as discussed here may be false doctrine (and dangerous) but it isnt another Gospel.

The Gospel is the death buriel and resurection of Jesus. Another Gospel would point to another savior.

Bad doctrine may take your focus off of Jesus, but bad doctrine, even FALSE doctrine isnt always "another Gospel"

Another gospel would be anything that saves us apart from Christ.....like circumcision.

But the magic hair doctrine doesn't say women are saved by magic hair but that they have power because of their hair with the angels. Some definitely teach that uncut hair is part of salvation because it is holiness.

I would not go so far as to say that it is "another gospel." However, if people are told they are saved by their own works or what they do or not do such as cutting or not cutting their hair, attending church, tithing, etc instead of being saved by what Jesus has done for us and who He is, that sounds close to being "another gospel."

Ya'll are way too soft on false doctrine, if Paul didn't preach it, he called it another gospel.

In Gal 3:1 he called it "witchcraft".
