I APPRECIATE vigorous discussion...what I don't like is being indicted 
for what I have been taught or what I believe. I've been looking into 
this hair thing. I've never told anyone they were wrong for not cutting 
their hair or anything else...it's their own view of the scriptures (not 
saying that the scripture should conform to our views).

The best way to win a soul (or show someone a "more perfect way") is not 
to tell them they are wrong, or tell them that you're tired of hearing 
from them. That's the best way to lose a soul permanently! Haven't we 
learned that yet?

The wise person on this forum will continue a discussion in a peaceful 
manner until it finally dissolves by mutual consent. If one doesn't 
persuade the other in a particular direction, then no harm done...we both 
got a good Bible study out of it, and a chance to see another's 
viewpoint.

I speak on matters of trivia, custom, and tradition only. The Bible 
stands regardless of our position. Think on this...who will get to heaven 
faster...the woman who doesn't cut her hair, but dishonors her husband, 
or the woman who cuts her ends and honors her husband and God?
