‘Church Men And Women.’
1 Corinthians 11:7-15.
a) 1 Corinthians 11:7. The reason why men ought not to cover their heads in Church assembly is because they are the Image and Glory of God.
b) 1 Corinthians 11:7. The woman is the Glory of the man.
c) 1 Corinthians 11:8. Man did not come from woman but woman from man.
d) 1 Corinthians 11:9. Man was not created for woman but woman for man.
e) 1 Corinthians 11:10. Because woman was created for man and because of the Angels, the woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head.
f) 1 Corinthians 11:11. In the Lord (in the Body of Christ) woman is not independent of man and man is not independent of woman.
g) 1 Corinthians 11:12. Woman comes from man.
h) 1 Corinthians 11:12. Man is born from woman.
i) 1 Corinthians 11:12. All things come from God.
j) 1 Corinthians 11:13. We are to judge for ourselves, is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? (By reasonable length hair or a head covering)
k) 1 Corinthians 11:14. Nature itself teaches us that if a man’s hair is too long it is a disgrace to him. (“Too long” varies from culture to culture)
l) 1 Corinthians 11:15. If a woman has reasonable length hair it is her Glory and covering.

Chris.
It is time for the Church of God worldwide to arise out of mediocrity and be committed to the Lord, His Word and His Ways. This can happen by Grace and the Working of the Holy Spirit as the True Believers pray and do the things that God wants us to do.
