11
1 Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.
2 Now I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.
3 But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.
4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head.
5 But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonors her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved.
6 For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.
7 For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.
8 For man is not from woman, but woman from man;
9 for neither was man created for the woman, but woman for the man.
10 For this cause the woman ought to have authority on her head, because of the angels.
11 Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord.
12 For as woman came from man, so a man also comes through a woman; but all things are from God.
13 Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled?
14 Doesn’t even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?
15 But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering.
16 But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God’s assemblies., from our October 28th Sunday morning worship service.

Dry Creeks Beds and Answered Prayers
October 9, 2007
Every year when I go back to San Diego to visit, my pastor, Ray Bentley, graciously gives me a generous allotment to purchase books at the Maranatha Chapel bookstore. I spend hours there, choosing every volume carefully. This year I acquired a character study on the life of Elijah. When I returned home I realized I had two other character studies on this fiery prophet in my library. Having my interest sufficiently peaked, my daily devotions transpired into a three book, month long look into the characteristics of a very natural man that was used supernaturally by the Lord. Here is one of the many things that stuck out to me. May the Lord bless you as He did me. [Read more]
