    What about adressing my examples Craig?

    I listed Scripture. Should Samuel had cut his hair? Why did God honor this request? Why?

    Don't add legalism to the Christian faith please.

    Matt. 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. [​IMG]

    1 Samuel 1:11 (NASB)
    11 She made a vow and said, "O LORD of hosts, if You will indeed look on the affliction of Your maidservant and remember me, and not forget Your maidservant, but will give Your maidservant a son, then I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life, and a razor shall never come on his head."

    Whats a shame is how people add things to the Word.

    So Craig are you saying men with longer than your standard view of hair lenght are lost?

    Would you tell a woman that looks like a man to grow some hair and repent?

    There are certainly those who do. I was once told my wife's hair, touching her shoulders, was too short.

    You listed Scripture from the Old Testament. When was the list time you stoned your kids for talking back to you?

    Behaving one's self is not adding legalism to the Christian faith—it is being a Christian!

    The foremost denouncer of legalism in the Church was the Apostle Paul and he did not mince words when it came to the fact that long hair is a sin and an abomination in the sight of God,

    1 Cor. 11:14. Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him,
    15. but if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her? For her hair is given to her for a covering.
    16. But if one is inclined to be contentious, we have no other practice, nor have the churches of God.

    It is important to note that when Paul appeals to nature or Old Testament principles to defend his teachings and instructions to the Church he is teaching something of exceptional importance! Those who choose to rebel and sin against the most Holy God are being contentious and choosing to practice something that is wholly outside of the realm of Christianity and therefore they are choosing to exclude themselves from the people of God.

    There is no shortage of fire in the pits of hell for those who deliberately and willfully choose to oppose the ordinances of God as set forth by the Apostles in the Holy Scriptures.

    Here is a picture some researchers reconstructed not long ago. I don't remember all the details, but this looks pretty much like a typical Middle Easterner.

    Probably a good thing there are no pictures of him. Otherwise, people might just get hung up worshipping an image.

    Yes, if God does not smite her first and cast her into the fires of hell.

    What is too long in your opinion?

    I was not asking for myself. I do not need a hair cut. :D

    That's basically what the Discovery Channel face looked like except the hair was a little longer but no much.

    Craig, sometimes it is hard to tell when you are serious and when you are trying to pull our legs. Or you have split personality, Half normal and half IFB. ;)

    I am starting to think you are watching the superbowl on tivo brushing your long hair and laughing at everybody who takes your satire threads seriously.

    Maybe you could use a [​IMG] face to let us know when you are not serious. Or would you the spoil the fun. :D
