(AKA, headcovering) by DavetteB http://anneelliott.com/2009/11/are-you-ready-for-some-controversy-aka-headcovering/#comment-2846 DavetteB Tue, 15 May 2012 06:04:51 +0000 http://anneelliott.com/blog/?p=1037#comment-2846 At our worship meetings and Bible study, we don't have to wear a head covering unless we would serve in a capacity normally held by a man, ie. if a woman was translating or signing for the elder preaching or praying, or if there was a group of all women and one is acting as a leader and praying. But in our last written information (organization-wide), it was left that you basically couldn't go wrong by choosing to wear a head covering, especially if you were unsure. As a single woman, I thought that if I was married I would probably choose to wear one, because I figure I would pray for my husband (both in and out of his presence), though I didn't think of what if he didn't care for it. I think something like a snood wouldn't stick out too much, but would look like I meant to do it as opposed to a bandana, which I associate with covering for a task (like painting) or I didn't get my hair done. African-american women tend to wear more hats than others (historically and culturally), but usually it is limited to special occasions. I like what someone else said above that it reminded them to be conscious about their prayer time and be modest. I also never thought of the protection aspect. At this point I'm undecided, but I don't criticize anyone that chooses to use one.

Is because in the book of revelation it says for eg "Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write;...." So since the letter is for real people, a real church and its leader. the leader\pastor seems to be called "angel" sorry forgot to add that the reason why i say Pastors or Angles.

By her covering her glory, (naturally).. which is also herself (the glory of man). She is showing that the glory of man ought to be covered in the presence of God glory (symbolisms for the benefit of the angels) real ones or possibly angels might refer to pastors... which again is a sign of honor submission to Gods order in the church...maybe) I was also thinking, that covering the hair, is a symbol of covering the glory of man:

]]> Comment on Should a Wife Work? by uzo http://anneelliott.com/2009/04/should-a-wife-work/#comment-2809 uzo Mon, 23 Apr 2012 17:39:22 +0000 http://anneelliott.com/blog/?p=351#comment-2809 thanks for your insight. i think that women should and must get their priorities right if they will raise godly children in this generation. A woman should work but must give her family top priority. the type of work matters as well. Proverbs 31 woman has shown us the right example to follow. A christian woman should have her own business from home. She will be able to keep an eye on her family. As the children grow she can then explore other opportunities.But, i bet she wouldn't because she would have been tremendously blessed by GOD. thanks for your insight. i think that women should and must get their priorities right if they will raise godly children in this generation.
