The Symbol of Submission to God

Most women have abandoned the practice of the head covering because they have been told by Bible school and seminary grads that it was "for back then" and that "it was the hair." Both of which are not true.

Paul spent an entire chapter explaining the need for the covering for women in 1 Corinthians 11, but not only that the lack of covering for men. SO....why does our culture still have the men uncovered but do not adhere to the command for the women to be covered?

Paul made it clear in the Word that there was no such custom of being contentious about the covering, all the churches were doing it.

The words of the Bible have been twisted in a time when Christian women will talk of being submissive to their husbands and very proud of it, but are not submitted to God. Their husbands are telling them they "don't have to wear it", so rather than go with God these women are treating their husbands as authorities over God.

Acts 5:29
"29 But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men."

When our husbands do not obey God, we are to obey God anyway.

Almost all other countries of the world where there are believers, the women wear a covering during the worship and prayer. What is different about America? The difference is that America is more concerned about fitting into the culture than they are about obeying Christ.

I notice that the one garment that is representative of submission is the one that has been demeaned, mocked and excluded from American thinking. Perhaps that is a sign of the rebellion of our nation.
