Head Covering (Understanding Christianity)

The lack of wearing of head covering seems to reflect a deeper feeling on the part of many that Christian behaviour can be adapted to prevailing social practices as the individual chooses. The authority of Scripture, and particularly its teaching on church order, has been largely set aside. Nevertheless, it is still true that “all Scripture is given by inspiration of God (literally ‘God- breathed’), and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16). The great Reformation cry, “Sole Scriptura” (the Scriptures alone) still challenges Christian behaviour today. That cry needs to be heard in our land again!
