approached you and told you that weapon was useless and old fashioned what would you do?
This is what has happened repeatedly in our Apostolic fellowship. One of our weapons as women is our "sign" of submission and
power on our heads; our uncut hair.
We might not even be aware of how many times our submission has thwarted the attacks of the enemy. You see, our battle is in the spirit world, so it's not as clear to see with our natural eyes.
There are lies being circulated about the ineffectiveness of our weapon. I call it a weapon because I have used it as a weapon in prayer. I have literally held up the ends of my hair as I interceded for a soul or a situation that I was praying about.
Why does it bother people so much that women choose to not cut their hair? I've heard and read about teachers who have twisted scripture
and used Greek translations to sway women. WHY would it be such an issue to so many "teachers"?
Let me tell you what I believe. Paul addressed the issue of hair in the writing to the Corinthian church because he wanted to provide the women who had come from such a corrupt society with a WEAPON! Their society had degraded women.
Paul wrote to them in I Corinthians 6:9-11 "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God."
Then Paul wrote in chapter 11 about a woman's literal hair " For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels." KJV
Another translation: King James 2000 Bible : "For this cause ought the woman to have authority on her head because of the angels."
A woman with Godly authority and power? And someone wants to take that away from her? Really? I think I know the source of this plan, it is the enemy at work. He does not want a woman to have any authority or power in the spirit world. The enemy rejected submission, he rejected God's authority, and he wants all of us to do the same.
Our world needs women that use this authority in prayer. Do you want the next generation to love the truth? Protect them by being submissive and by showing the sign or token of submission (Young's Literal Translation) your uncut glorious hair.
