Dake Bible Discussion Board ⇒ sin to have a beard

[branham1965]

i was watching Frances and friends and they said some people think its a sin to wear a beard.i had never heard that.they dont believe that way.

also they are teaching that if a child's parents are lost the babies and little children will NOT go in the rapture.i have NEVER heard this before.

Looks like they make it up as they go....

Orthodox Jews do not shave their face. They base this on their interpretation of Lev 19:27
Leviticus 19:27 (KJV)
27 Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.

also the discussion came up on Jesus' hair.

how long would the Lord's hair be??? one said it would have been short because the Roman statues showed short hair.

ive wondered about some of the beautiful pictures of our Lord.

G-Day Billy. Good question mate. I read where scripture teaches its a shame for a man to have long hair.

"Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?" (1 Cor. 11:14).

Long hair is a glory and a covering for women not men.

"But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering." (1 Cor. 11:15).

These Scripture being recorded in the Bible, I doubt Jesus would have had long hair as many icons show? That fake shroud of Turin also shows long hair on the face of the one depicted on it, another proof it is a fake.

And Scripture teaches Jesus had a beard.

"I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting." (Isa. 50:6).

Howdy Haz.


thanks much for the post.im aware of these verses(elder * used to tell me when it was time to get my ears lowered) but we can never hear them enough.the beard of Jesus
the question is what is long hair on a man 2000 years ago.
all the movies show the Lord about shoulder or less length.my favorite picture of the Lord was done by Heinrich Hoffman.it depicts our Lord at 33 talking with the rich young ruler.
Brother Branham said in his Visions this picture looked like Jesus.
wow the shroud.ive often wondered about that.ive seen programs on it.the Catholics sure fuss about it.

Yea'h, that shroud billy! I have seen it. Its definately fake. If people would only get hold of their Bibles and read it they would know about these things and not get caught up in all this idol and icon worship. You should have seen the poor duped people I saw bowing and scraping, trembling, some old women nearly nearly fainting, and kissing the enclosure holding the shroud, blessing themselves mumbling jibberish, as if they were in fact truly seeing Jesus Christ Himself. Its sad mate.

The shroud of Turin is like a bed sheet. Its one piece from head to toe. Jesus was wrapped in linen strips as the Scriptures teach, and His head was wrapped in a seperate napkin so that negates the shroud for a start. You probably know this anyway.

"Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie, And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself." (John 20:6-7).

I'm surprised the Roman Church hasnt ripped an ancient bed sheet into strips, turkied up an old napkin and said hey, we were wrong here's the real cloths!!!!!!!!! Their followers would probably believe that as well.

hello mate.i was watching a show on the great reef over there.....

i actually know very little about the shroud.thanks for helping me.and i never knew that about the burial clothes.i thought they rolled up the bodies up ... again like we see in the movies.
were your people devout Haz??i wonder if macca's were.
my family and others i grew up with were nominal Catholics.other than my Great Grandmother from Italy.she prayed with me many times to receive Jesus or for healing etc.she was devastated when i got saved at 15.she said Minister not Priest in broken English...but God opened them all up.almost.
my uncle got saved in my old Church then got a burr and he left.my other uncle ..i gave him the RED GPFM.he loved it.underlined every page .he was preaching it to me.he was so excited!!
UNTIL he hit the chapter on Mystery Babylon and Romanism.then he put it down.i was crushed.that was about 35 years ago

My sister's husbands dad is a pastor of some off-shoot pentacostal church, and they believe that about the children...She asked them to give her the scripture that says that, and all they told her was "trust us, it is in the Bible...just trust us".

I told her to never trust anyone, especially when they tell you it is in the Bible but will refuse to tell where....

You guys may have forgotten that when a Jew took a vow as a Nazarite, he was not to cut his hair or shave his face. Numbers 6.

Numbers 6:5
All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the Lord, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.
