Lord willing, we will bring this long-forgotten truth to the attention of Christ's church; a truth that has been put aside for too long because of ignorance or improper handling of God's word. It is a saddening thing, that so many sisters are not proudly declaring their submission to Christ and the God-ordained roles of men and women through this symbol.

This is such a wonderful video i have started to cover since a few days before 2018 Thanksgiving. It has been so wonderful seeing the changes around me men being more polite to me, holding the door etcetera and not leering. I have also seen that my relationship with God has grown stronger wanting to show him that listening to his commands are the most important thing! Also I've been wanting to dress more modestly and find myself on a regular basis wearing skirts and not pants and I have not worn pants for several weeks now because for some reason it had just made me feel like I was putting myself out there and I don't believe that's what should be done. So praise the Lord for this in which it has proven to me to be beneficial no matter how many family members disagree and no matter how many people turn me away I will always have God!!!

Head covering had never even crossed my mind until recently as I started to investigate Christian traditions outside my own. It immediately struck me as endearing, modest and respectful of something divine - almost as if it captured a feminine beauty beyond anything I'd experienced in my culture.

50 years ago when I was 10 on Sunday all the protestant and Catholic women wore hats scarves or veils to Sunday worship.Why do we all have collective amnesia about this now and act as if this practice was a strange new practice brought to us by aliens.In many other countries this practice has NEVER stopped but has gone on for centuries unbroken!

I am re watching this for encouragement. I am the only woman in my church who covers her head. I am consistent in church but not consistent in every day life. I don't think this will ever be part of the Christian community again for various reasons. Yet, I want to be faithful to this conviction that God has given me. So, the only way to get support is to watch YouTube videos and especially by pastors that I already follow. It's a real blessing to me that R.C. Sproul stood with this. He's probably in heaven saying " I told you it wasn't cultural ". I just kidding I know he is too busy enjoying Jesus.

I am new to covering and yes, it is difficult after 44 years of not but WOW, what I am learning about submission, false womanhood and also losing the makeup, jewelry and is PRICELESS! I have a long way to go.

I was recently convicted to cover my head after reading this scripture and fasting. I hurt for the people sitting under a preacher who refuses to believe this scripture is for today and teaches otherwise. Thank you

[amyharris]

Thank you for sharing this. Head covering is something that the Lord has placed on my heart and I've been digging into it recently and this explanation is wise and concisely explained.

[katherinedownover]

thank you wonderful to here have been covering my head for 2 days now and am so thankful that the LORD opened my eyes to this the changes where immediate, I pray to anyone wrestling with this to fast and pray about it. I have been a Christian 16 years now and am in my 50s so it has been a huge battle for me but GOD is good all the time and extremely patient .

[Thedevilisaliar]

I am near 50 and reading about head covering now 💥 it hit me like a ton of bricks and I now want to cover in church

[JCATG]

R.C. Sproul exposited that unending Scriptural dispute with intellect and wisdom. That was amazing.

Thank You Lord for Dr. Sproulʼs life.

Glory to God. † ❤️

Thank God for this man willing to speak the TRUTH no matter how unpopular!

[Getvictd]

This question has bothered me for years and finally today the Spirit has convicted me....my head is covered😁

In india we follow this tradition of head covering in almost all churches.

I just started covering a week ago. And wow, I just love this tradition as a women so much. It lets me know so clearly that when I go about my life I am under the authority of Christ. I’ve been able to just walk with Christ so much more in unity because of this amazing tradition, that sadly ended for most church’s. I think that it’s so important that when people from the church read verses unpopular with our culture like 1 Corinthians 11, that we study it. And put God’s word over what we feel knowing God’s plans are far better than our own.

[amycarlton]

Amen! Praise be to God! So glad to hear proper teaching on this! Let God be true and every man a liar! The truth sets us free!

[hopi-wan]

If the angels would cover their glory before the throne (Isaiah 6) - so should we. Hair is our glory, and nature shows us so per Paul's example. I agree w/ RC completely.

I appreciate and respect Brother Sproul. Woman cover their head in our congregation.

[holinessofthebride]

This is an excellent answer and very clear reasoning. He uses common sense principles we could use anywhere in Scripture to understand its truth.

[kvzacomics]

I always wear head coverings during church meetings on the Lord's day, that's what most Brethren Christians do. I believe it is a beautiful teaching of God's glory. I didn't come here to pick up fights though, I'm just saying I agree with Sproul.
