How to Find a Head Covering Church

How to Find a Head Covering Church

When a person is convinced of the necessity of head covering they often desire to be in a church that shares those same convictions. It is a good thing when biblical gender roles and the symbol of head covering are celebrated and encouraged. I personally, as the founder of the Head Covering Movement made the conscience choice to join a non head covering church (and I don’t regret it). However, for those who do desire to be in a church that practices this symbol, I’d like to offer help on how to find those churches and some advice if you’re currently a member of another assembly.

The first thing you need to know about finding a head covering church is that this practice will vary assembly-to-assembly. There are a few denominations where this practice is a part of their faith statement but for most it will still be on a church-by-church basis. Read more

À qui est l’Exousia (l’autorité) mentionnée au verset 10 ? À l’homme ou à la femme ?

Head Covering Questions

Dans 1 Cor 11:10 Paul écrit que “la femme doit avoir une marque d’autorité sur la tête“. Le terme grec traduit par “autorité” est “exousia” et il apparaît 103 fois dans le Nouveau Testament. Il y a deux façons de comprendre l’autorité dans ce passage.

L’interprétation traditionnelle entend l’autorité comme celle de l’homme à laquelle la femme se soumet. Le voile devient alors le symbole de la place de la femme dans la création.

L’interprétation moderne comprend l’autorité comme celle exercée par la femme. Le voile devient alors le symbole de son droit à prier et à prophétiser dans l’assemblée. Le but de cet article est de vous familiariser avec ces deux positions. Nous donnerons une solide argumentation pour chacune d’entre elles, puis nous conclurons en vous partageant notre point de vue.

主人が「ベールを被るというのはやめてほしい」と言っています。その場合、どうすればいいのでしょうか。

Head Covering Questions
相談：主人が私に「ベールを被るっていうのはやめてほしい」と申しております。私自身としては、これが聖書的な掟であり、遵守する必要があると信じているのですが、、、でもその一方で、祈りのベールというのが本来、「主人に対する私の恭順さ」を象徴するものであるということも分かっているんです。この場合、私はどうしたらいいんでしょう。

これは非常に難しい状況です。この事に関し、まず私は二つの異なる意見をあなたにご提示しようと思います。その後、何かあなたの助けになるような具体的な案をこれからご一緒に考えていけたらと思います。

Should Women Wear Head Coverings?: A Response to Benjamin L. Merkle regarding Inconsistency

Response to Benjamin L. Merkle
The following article is a response to Benjamin L. Merkle’s paper entitled “Paul’s Arguments from Creation in 1 Corinthians 11:8-9 and 1 Timothy 2:13-14: An Apparent Inconsistency Answered“. It was published by ETS in 2006. Later in 2015 the Gospel Coalition published an abridged version entitled “Should Women Wear Head Coverings?”

In 1 Timothy 2:13-14 and 1 Corinthians 11:7-9, the Apostle Paul appeals to the creation order to explain and defend his teaching on gender roles in the church. Here’s what he says in each passage:

But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve. (1 Tim 2:13-14 NASB)

For a man ought not to have his head covered, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. For man does not originate from woman, but woman from man; for indeed man was not created for the woman’s sake, but woman for the man’s sake. Therefore the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head… (1 Cor 11:7-10a)

Since both passages appeal to the creation order, consistent treatment is needed. This means Complementarians should affirm that both practices and teachings are trans-cultural.

Dr. Benjamin Merkle (Professor, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary) believes in complementarian roles and affirms the truths taught in 1 Timothy 2. However, he believes that head covering was a cultural practice that women do not need to implement today. His paper is a defense for why holding to these two positions is not inconsistent treatment.
