Bruce S. Bertram from The Word of God Ministries and www.wholebible.com takes extra time to go through the issue of head coverings along with some Bible Study techniques because there is so much misinformation and authority abuse involved.
It's sad that this teaching takes up so much of believer's time. The article on which this video is based www.wholebible.com/head_coveri... is one of the top ten pages visited on our site. Why? Why does this subject generate so much passion, aggravation, splitting, and false teaching? There is so much else we need to learn and practice in His Word without throwing something in there that is only mentioned vaguely in one small section.
In this video (and the article) Bruce uses some of the concepts of Bible Study to look at 1 Corinthians 11:1-16. Since we've already been through this ourselves, we can also tell you that a head covering as proponents practice it is simply not there. There. Now the people with minds already made up and a cloth on their heads can move on to another video that will confirm what they already believe. The rest of us can take some time to look at the subject objectively and arrive at the truth.

A wonderfully detailed teaching which I will bring to my Bible class as I asked that we do a study on headcovering. Bless you.
Thank you. I hope in turn you are blessed in your study, teaching, and practice of the whole of His Word. Let me know if I can add anything.
The Whole Bible Christian I've always felt that too many are stumbling and debating over this passage and not seeing the whole of the scripture. When I was growing up, all females (adult and children) covered their heads in church (hats, not scarves), yet there was never any teaching to effectively explain 'why'. It was a tradition that everyone followed; and horror was expressed if a woman entered the sanctuary without a head covering of some kind. In fact, I remember my parents stating that that little doilies some wore, weren't good enough headcoverings-that they were disrespectful. In the late 60s-70s the practice began to phase out for women, yet still the church clings to the tradition of headcoverings for men in church as being inappropriate or sacrilegious (including myself). I have never been comfortable with anything on my head (except my hair) and to this day, only wear hats when it is very cold or the snow is falling. In addition, I rejected the 'thought' that somehow my salvation was tied up in a piece of cloth. This is a topic however that should be introduced with each new believer, each new generation so that they (male and female) will understand the significance of the passage. Blessings.

Funny, isn't it, how people reject God's Laws but come up with so many of their own? I have to conclude the reason we do is we still want to be in charge. Just as we wanted to be in the Garden, and pretty much ever since. We humans have great skill in deposing God from the throne, just to take the seat ourselves.
I hope our material will continue to be useful to you. Especially there is a related video you might include in your study titled 'Whole Bible Applications: Modesty' czcams.com/video/jTr-wSYKHu0/video.html. There I speak more about clothing in general and the application to the topic of modesty. Shalom.
The Whole Bible Christian Thank you.
