We're talking about Christianity, not African culture... So don't get it twisted.

Jokerman:


Long hair is not the same as plaiting of hair

Iseoluwani:


Kindly get a book on culture as it affects church

Check on Kenneth Hagins bóok THE TRIUMPHANT CHURCH

Samantha124:
Black hair doesn't have the same texture as white hair... So we plait our black hair to make it easy to manage.

White people don't plait or hardly plait their hair because it's easy to manage.

It's like you're saying managing black hair is a sin and demonic.

Samantha124:
Where in the Bible does it states that plaiting hair is a sin?

Jokerman:


Why would you as ah African or black man will want to keep long hairs or plait your head?

ebubeson:
If you check some churches, you may see guys plaiting their hair. You may notice such amongst the instrumentalists, drummers, bass guitar players etc.
The question is, should a genuine Christian guy Plait his hair?

To me, it is not a good appearance for a genuine Christian guy. Such appearance cannot be easily used to preach, and it may not allow sinners to be convinced to repent.

Glory2DLamb:
I Cor. 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor EFFEMINATE, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.


Rom. 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

Freeko4:


The question of whether a genuine Christian guy should plait his hair is a matter of personal interpretation and cultural context. Different Christian denominations and individuals may have varying beliefs and practices regarding appearance and grooming.

In many Christian communities, appearance is seen as a matter of personal conviction and not a strict religious requirement. Some may argue that one's hairstyle does not define their faith or ability to preach the Gospel, while others may hold conservative views on grooming.

Ultimately, the decision to plait one's hair or choose a particular hairstyle should be based on individual beliefs, personal conviction, and the cultural norms of their specific Christian community. It's important to remember that Christianity encompasses a wide range of interpretations and practices, and there is no universally correct answer to this question.

Righteousness2:
A man plaiting his hair is an abomination. It Don't deceive yourself with grammars.

godofuck231:
If Sampson, moses and elijah in the bible had dreds who will say otherwise, except a white man who needs to turn us away from who God truly is , any black man and holy man who is spiritually gifted with strength and ruggedity does not cut his hair, its a pact between him and his God and the physical strength of these men are nothing to contest with

AntiChristian:
Christians will say God looks at the heart not the body!

Can a lady wear only G-string under micro skirt and short crop to church?

No!

Shebi Jesus dey look only heart not outside body!

Sampson had dreadlocks
John the Baptist had dreadlocks also

Why do you condemn without giving biblical references?

Emma09:
Plating of hair is different from natural dreadlocks.

Botragelad:

The physical appearance does not always reflect the heart. The Bible also said that man looks at the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart. Outward appearances can be deceiving, misleading or influenced by many factors.

For example, some people may dress modestly or wear religious symbols, but they may be hypocrites or criminals. Some people may have scars, tattoos or piercings, but they may be kind, generous or brave. Some people may have disabilities, illnesses or deformities, but they may be happy, hopeful or talented. You can't judge a book by its cover, mate. You have to look beyond the surface and get to know the person. Simple sense.

Samantha124:
So it's a sin for a black man to grow his hair and put it in a neat way, but it's okay for white Christian men to grow long hair?


I mean most men in the Bible had long hair, Jesus included.
