Jun. 25, 2007 - Hair (In The Bible)

Out of curiosity, I looked up hair in the concordence. One of the verses I found in the Bible was this: But if a woman  

have long hair be it a GLORY to her... I Corinthians 11 :15 (emphasis added) I was a little suprised. Does God mean that it's wrong to have short hair? I read a couple of verses before the verse mentioned above. In verse 14 here's what I found: ... If a man have long hair be it a shame unto him...  God is saying that it's a good thing for a lady to have long, feminine, glossy hair. NOT a man.

  That's great isn't it? The bad news is that many people even christians aren't following this. Men are having long hair and girls have short hair. I admit short hair is a convinience once in a while when your hair gets too long. But long hair in my opinion is very nice as well.

   Feel free to leave a comment and give me your opinion!

Jun. 25, 2007 - long vs short

I don't think God minds so much what we look like as much as what is in our hearts. Doing what and acting like Jesus are what really matter.

I agree with you and am convinced/convicted that the Lord desires long hair for me.
Even though short hair can be convenient sometimes, I really do enjoy having long hair and being obedient to the Lord. Thank you for posting this. Hope you have a great weekend.

I don't honestly think that is it WRONG for women to have short hair, though I don't know why they would want to. But when I see men with long hair... uuuuuuhhhhhggg! Ick! :P
