Case for Head Coverings: Part 1 – The Order of Creation (Living Transformed) “Women bring honor to the male authority in their life and ultimately to the Lord by following the instructions given by God. Don’t abandon these principles, for it brings dishonor to your head as well as to the authorities in your life…and more importantly, it is a direct disobedience to the Lord.”
A Smart Man’s View of Headcovering (Truth at Home) “I labeled this post “A Smart Man’s View of Headcovering” because first of all, his analysis does seem to be very biblical and logical; and secondly, because he is well-educated academically, which gives his opinions even more force “

Objection : Le voile c’est légaliste, c’est revenir à la Loi. Nous sommes sauvés par le Christ et non par ce que nous faisons. Aussi nous n’avons plus à pratiquer ces choses inutiles pour notre salut.
Beaucoup de ceux qui pratiquent le voile sont perçus comme des légalistes. Avant de commenter cette accusation, nous devons nous entendre sur la définition des termes. Le mot “légalisme” n’apparaît nulle part dans la Bible, d’ailleurs personne n’est taxé de “légaliste” dans les Écritures. Ce sont des expressions que nous utilisons pour parler d’un certain rapport à la Loi qui est erroné. En général, on dit de quelqu’un qu’il est légaliste parce qu’il commet au moins une de ces deux erreurs :
Il croit que son obéissance à des règles est ce qui le rend droit aux yeux de Dieu.
Il réglemente des sujets où le chrétien reste normalement libre de décider selon sa conscience.
Pour la première définition du légalisme, il est possible d’être légaliste à propos de n’importe quel enseignement de la Bible. Le voile n’a pas à en être accusé puisque que toute commande biblique peut donner lieu à une application légaliste. Quiconque croit se justifier devant Dieu en obéissant à Sa Parole, peut faire l’erreur avec n’importe quel passage biblique. Mais soyons clair, ceci est une hérésie. Toutes nos bonnes oeuvres et toute notre obéissance ne pourront jamais nous rendre justes aux yeux de Dieu. Notre salut est un don gratuit de Dieu, obtenu par la vie parfaite de Jésus et par sa mort pour nous. La foi au Christ, voici ce qui nous sauve, et non notre obéissance. Si nous obéissons à Dieu c’est par amour pour Lui (Jean 14:15), et non pour être aimés par Lui. En ce sens, on peut tout-à-fait pratiquer le voile sans être dans un esprit légaliste. Read more

2) Where do you attend church? Tell us a little bit about it. Do others practice headcovering there?
I started attending an independent Church this last spring that is very much like the Brethren denomination. Almost every woman covers her head in church with a mantilla, scarf, hat, or head wrap style. It’s not mandatory for women to cover their head if they’re only casually attending. However, If you want to become a member head covering is one of their imperative beliefs. Read more
Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981), minister of Westminster Chapel in London for 30 years, was one of the foremost preachers of his day. His many books have brought profound spiritual encouragement to millions around the world.
Transcript: “In the first epistle to the Corinthians in the eleventh chapter and the 10th verse, Paul uses these words, “For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.” You will remember that he’s considering the question of women praying without their heads being covered. Apparently some of the women in the church of Corinth were taking part in prayer with their heads uncovered. And the Apostle tells them that that’s quite wrong. It’s not only wrong because a woman should have her head covered to show that she is under the authority of the man, but in addition to that he says to that she should be covered because of the presence of the angels. In other words, the Scripture teaches that when you and I are met as we are at this moment and when we’re met together in prayer that the angels of God are present and are looking upon us. And the woman is to be covered when she takes part in public prayer because of the presence of the angels. It’s a tremendous and a remarkable thing. Let us bear it in mind.”
