Why do christian woman refuse to wear headscarf when praying?

The bible is clear, cover your hair when you pray!

Why call yourself christian when not wanting to follow what bible says?

not require.

I do . . . I'm the short one in red.

I don't wear a hat in church because it is disrespectful.

I have not seen women wearing a covering on their heads, since I was a child.

Finally someone gets it. But there are still 3.5 too many holes. And the holes themselves should be round, and triangular after 5. And blue is fine in the a.m., but no self respecting woman wears blue after noon.

Little known fact, but the blue ninjas is one of the fastest growing arms of the church.

Read the life story of Samson.

That's you? Wow. Where'd you buy it? That's a nice color, I really like the embroidery.

Thanks KJ91 for your posting. It is my understanding that hair is a picture of the gospel in the Bible. That is why so many references in the Bible to hair have to do with prophets. Some call it a hoary mantle. They are prophesying and power is associated with that, and that is why power is the issue with hair. Samson is a good example as he loses power without hair. We read: "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth " Concerning prophesy, we read: "the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy". The verse you mention about women having their head covered, in my opinion, is speaking about the gospel. All Christians are women in relation to Christ, they are Christ's bride. Therefore, the gospel provides a covering for them, since it speaks of Christ's sacrifice and resurrection to cover their sin. The man is Christ, however. We read: "Behold the man! " The man was without sin, and, therefore, a covering for no sin, which would be covering up righteousness, would be a shame. Incidentally, the verse you mention talks about hair being a covering, not about covering up hair. I am happy if you enjoy wearing a hat or scarf but I do not see that as required by the verse and verses you are speaking of.

When you read the only passage in scripture that refers to women covering their head, it says women should have a head covering and then also says her hair is a head covering.
I thinknits wonderful if women do wear a scarf or hat, but Im not contentious if they simply wear their hair. Reverence is a matter of the heart not of outward appearences.

Here we go again.... another one.
Where do all these, um... posters come from?

OP "Why do Christian women refuse to wear a headscarf when praying?"

Head-coverings don't have to be scarves.

I never take my hat off except to sing "The Red Flag".

Jesus truth is that ALL things are new in Him, the old testament laws are no longer in effect for His Own.
Yes, some churches try to make people get back under the law, anyone who is in relationship with Jesus would not be so misled and mistaken.

And what parts of the Bible do you not obey? When you are perfect in obedience and understanding, feel free to criticise and judge.

The reference to the head covering for women is in Corinthians which is not the old testament.

This is a beautiful picture. What church are you part of?
Please tell the story behind this picture.
