Mary asked we have been asked to pray all the time, then how would I pray when am working, my head is uncovered.......???
Most debatable topic in INDIAN regional churches.
Most debatable topic in INDIAN regional churches.
No one except for
Regional Indian churches and few catholic orthodox churches lay emphasis
on this, argument on (covering of head) in itself has
many logical flaws and is not compliant with any logical reasoning.
St Paul’s
reply to Joe and Mary: Read chap 9th,
10th and 11th chapters in context…I did not write the
epistles in chapters and verses…you guys marked the chapters and verses.
Let me (Paul)
start with my Initial statement with regards to customs in the times I lived in
the Middle East.
I have
written in I Corinthians 11:16 “But if any man seems to be contentious, we have
no such custom, neither the churches of God.”
In some
countries long hair are considered as beauty and in some it is not (In US long
hair are as good as short hair in INDIA; African ladies have hair as good as a bald
women).
I
Corinthians 11:15- But if a woman have long hair; it is a glory to her: for her
hair is given her for a covering. (We can’t cover our covering – how much long
is long and how much short is short? Length is always relative. How much of
hair need to be covered?).
Secondly, I advised
the church to Pray in the Spirit all the time. Is it possible for a woman to
cover her hair full time while praying even at work or at any other places or Is
it possible for a man to keep his head uncovered while riding bike or working out in extreme cold
regions or season…? You guys are intelligent and have the anointing of the HOLY
GHOST, think for yourselves.(If this is not possible then the argument doesn't make sense what so ever. HOLY SPIRIT for sure has made it possible to pray in
the spirit all the time).
Paul finally
addresses, “I wrote this segment to Corinthians regarding the Divine order in
terms of Headship and Provision, but you people have misinterpreted me.”
Finishing
statement from Rahul: These cultures have come from ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH as a
result of DARK AGES and we still follow them.
Though I (Rahul)
still believe if a person who wants to cover the hair, can do it without
demeaning or looking down at others who don’t cover their hair.
In doing all
this (covering or no covering) if the LOVE OF GOD is not seen in us or the CHARACTER
of JESUS is not developed in us then we are no more than hypocrites.(Matthew 7:21, 22, 23).
In today's Christianity, Religious and Regional cultures have hijacked the LOVE, FREEDOM, GRACE, CHRISTLIKENESS and POWER of GOD.
