1 Corinthians 11: 2 -16 Worship Service Problems

1 Corinthians 11: 2 -16 “I am so glad that you always keep me in your thoughts, and that you are following the teachings I passed on to you. ”

v 3 “But there is one thing I want you to know: The head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. ”

Ephesians 1: 22 “And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, ”

Ephesians 5: 22 -23 “Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. ”

“But also the husband being the head of the wife is commanded to love their wives sacrificially as Christ loved the church. Earlier, in the context of sexual purity and conjugal obligations, Paul pointed out that wives have authority over their husbands’ bodies and that husbands and wives should not deprive one another sexually (1 Co 7: 3– 5). ” Ted Cabal, The Apologetics Study Bible

1 Corinthians 11: 4 -6 “A man dishonors his head if he covers his head while praying or prophesying. But a woman dishonors her head if she prays or prophesies without a covering on her head, for this is the same as shaving her head.

Yes, if she refuses to wear a head covering, she should cut off all her hair! But since it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut or head shaved, she should wear a covering”

“It is best to understand that Paul is here referring to activities of believers in ministry before the Lord and the public, where a clear testimony is essential. ” John F. Mac. Arthur Jr

1 Corinthians 11: 7 -10 “A man should not wear anything on his head when worshiping, for man is made in God’s image and reflects God’s glory. And woman reflects man’s glory. For the first man didn’t come from woman, but the first woman came from man.

And man was not made for woman, but woman was made for man. For this reason, and because the angels are watching, a woman should wear a covering on her head to show she is under authority. ”

“As has been mentioned, covering the head appears to have been a customary symbol of subordination in Corinthian society, as in much of the ancient world. But the principle of male headship is not a matter of custom but a matter of God’s order and creation and should never be compromised. ” John F. Mac. Arthur

1 Corinthians 11: 11 -12 “But among the Lord’s people, women are not independent of men, and men are not independent of women. For although the first woman came from man, every other man was born from a woman, and everything comes from God. ”

Genesis 2: 18 “And the LORD God said, "It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him. " him

Galatians 3: 28 “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. ”

1 Corinthians 11: 13 -15 “Judge for yourselves. Is it right for a woman to pray to God in public without covering her head? Isn’t it obvious that it’s disgraceful for a man to have long hair? And isn’t long hair a woman’s pride and joy? For it has been given to her as a covering.

1 Corinthians 11: 16 “But if anyone wants to argue about this, I simply say that we have no other custom than this, and neither do God’s other churches. ”
