Scriptural Teaching On Hair

Is it possible that the length of a person's hair could have anything to do with pleasing God?
You may think it strange, but before you dismiss the question, consider this: "If a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him… If a woman have long hair, it is her glory: for her hair given her a covering (I Corinthian 11:14-15).

In the bible, divinely appointed symbols represent holy things.  example; He gave His disciples bread to eat and a cup to drink. The bread, He said, represented His body, and the cup, His blood (I Corinthian 11:23-25).
 God has chosen for the length of people's hair to symbolize their relationship to Him and to the authority He has placed over them. This truth is presented in I Corinthian 11:3-16.

Dressing in Modesty.

What does it mean to pursue holiness?
With respect to humanity, holiness simply means conformity to the character and the will of God. Pursuing holiness, then, involves continually striving to be pleasing to God in every area of life. It means that we must give our greatest consistent effort to apply the principles of God’s Word to our lives.

So WOMEN!... what does God's word say about the way we present ourselves?


"Here's a few of the outward steps we take as Christians ladies to be set a part from the "world" or the society that is against God. We were born this way, and God doesn't make mistakes. We know you don't have to change a thing about you to be beautiful. Be proud that you're a lady, and sport your natural beauty with pride!

Modesty is a given, so this is where it gets more specific.

Everything is to be done with the right heart and spirit. We are not telling you that you must do these things, this video is just educational. It's to help you see where we are coming from when it comes to being "separate from the world"

Romans 12:2 "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."


Couldn't have said it better myself.

So that being said, we are here to let you know that you don't have to dress like this....(*ahem*grandma like)  to be in Modesty!

Dressing in Modesty and following these standards can be fun too, and our purpose is to prove this to you, and to show the world that as APOSTOLIC women.. we can be stylish and look good too!!

(standards: 
Clothing is not to be revealing or tight, 
skirts/dresses below knees, 
no cleavage, 
no jewelry, 
no make up, 
uncut hair.. etc etc.. sound like alot.. 
but its not.. 
its just the natural beauty that God has blessed us with!)

So keep checkin'.. it'll be fun!
