Do you not suppose it na- tural for a women praying in the church without covering (un- covered) her head and appe- aring in shameful to her? 7 When it was written that wo- men having long hair is honor and glory, do you cut your hair and live in dishonor and not glorifying member? 8 O women, judge among you. Do you seek Lord’s praise or pr- aise of men? 9 Is it not the reason women ought to have a cover her head on a symbol of authority so, why do virgins and woman feel shy to cover their heads? 10 I write to you that women and virgins are faithful children, obe- dient children, who showed obe- dience to Sarah who obeyed her master. 11 So, correct the women and virgin who do not cover their he- ads with the word of God and if they do not head exhort them in the light of the word of God say- ing that have sinful leprosy on their heads. 12 If they do not listen, send th- em out immediately as disobedi- The Salvation is the Gift of God ence to the word of God in the church of God is character of Satan. Refrain partiality in this issue. 13 II It is a shameful to grow hair for a man, so exhort them that men should not cover their heads in the presence of God. 14 Understand that all men are examples in Christ as holy ex- hibiting priests and they are not under the bondage of law or law of Nazirite. 15 If anyone determines to rem- ain unmarried according to God’s will not only it is a profit for him but also becomes a stro- ng vessel in God’s hand. They received the God’s grace. 16 Men should not tonsured his head, even if one’s father or mot- her or one of his blood relatives entered into glory after taking new birth, he should not tonsure his head for them. 17 He cannot give three cuts from his hair and should not be shaven his beard with sad count- enance. 18 Because death is a rest of sl- eep for the saints and a holy man should not let his hair grow more and having his hair cut short Salvation through Born Again 79 (trim) with scissors, have his bea- rd fully cut which reveals that thi- nking is unlimited, and prove that their mind is in their control. 19 No man should have fancy hair cut which displays sinful lep- rosy, and no woman should have her hair with variant plaits. You are to understand that this is God’s commandment and also our counsel. 20 Through this all the saints and the whole church are leaning to obey JESUS Christ who shed His blood. 21 II Regarding the dead ones: we write to you that no one sho- uld die without being born again. 22 Is the one who does not kn- ow to swim will jump into the wa- ters? So we exhort you all to re- ach ashore by swimming. 23 We tell you not to smite upon your breasts and clamorously weep for the dead ones as the gentiles do. 24 Because - a heathen who do- es not know God does like that, and you who know God and ev- en more known by God do like the same, then when will other know your hope which God gave you? The Salvation is the Gift of God 25 Will the scripture become vain which says Christ who is in you is glory and hope? 26 In this regard – do not weep over the dead one (sleeping) or do not mourn, weep about who is going for he will not come back or never sees his native country. 27 In another place the scripture says, that the dead in Christ will rise first? 28 And in another place it is written that the day of death is better than the day of one’s bi- rth.
