We Are Complete in Him - PART 106

I am anxious that you should understand that Christ is the Head of every man. I Corinthians chapter 11 verse 7 states, "For a man ought not to cover his head (veiled), forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God." Man represents the likeness, image and supremacy of God. Every man praying, prophesying or preaching with his head covered dishonours his head. He disgraces his head. He dishonours Him who is his head.

Does not even nature itself teach us that if a man has long hair, it is a shame to him? This is a natural irreversible principle illustrated by natural law to all generations, that it is degrading for a man to wear long hair. Nature simply teaches by illustration making a man to have thinning hair or he simply goes bald.


On the other hand, every woman who prays or prophesiess with her head uncovered dishonours her head. Eve was taken from Adam to be loved of him and to be cared for by him, inasmuch as she is a helpmate. Both together ought to function as one flesh. A woman’s long hair by nature is a glory to her. Nature provided a covering of long hair which is a glory to her. There is no need to cover her natural covering with another material covering unless her hair has been shorn. Then she ought to materially cover her short hair.



These ordinances are delivered to us so that we, both male and female can respond by saying. "Be it so done in me according to your word." We observe that the aforementioned ordinances are discarded by most today. However, by mankind’s non compliance, the Word of God is not rendered irrelevant. Each person will still stand before his or her creator and give an account to Him as to their stance. Let God be true and all those who oppose these truths bear their own burden.


God has sent His Word for the healing and restoration of a fallen race. As such, His Word is coming to you so that you can decide. This short presentation hopefully asserts that God is a God of order. We might say there is a pecking order which, when maintained as God’s plan, we the created, now redeemed children of God, can willingly bow the knee to our great God who is one Spirit. The Spirit of the Holy One. God is the master mind, and He has made Himself known in created form as Jesus. His only begotten Son (not Begat, Begotten) of the Holy Spirit. He purchased us at Calvary redeeming us, by and through the sacrifice of Himself. Once and only once was He sacrificed. ONLY ONCE. We are complete in Him! 

In verse 3, we read that the Spirit of God is the Head of the Man Christ Jesus (I must be about my Father’s business). And Christ is the head of man (if any man be in Christ Jesus he is a new creation). And man is the head of the woman (Adam was first formed then Eve). All of these things originate from God. Peace to all in Jesus!
