How a Christian must look like

[slave]

I believe Christians cannot look the way they want, but the way God wants them to.

I will mention Bible verses to prove this.

You need to keep the law of God to be saved, see Matthew 19:16-17

Male Christian

- a full beard

- no bald head,

- do not shorten the sides of the hair on the head or beard

- no long hair

- no tattoos

- only decent clothes

- men's clothing only

Female Christian

- no beard

- no bald head

- long hair

- no tattoos

- only decent clothes

- women's clothing only

- she must cover herself

- no tight clothing

- no nudity

Sources: Leviticus 19:27, 21:5; Deuteronomy 22:5; 1Corinthians 11:14-15

Of course, there can be natural exceptions. For example, someone cannot have a beard or hair on his head. Such a person is excused.

Galatians 2:21
I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.

Romans 3:20
Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight

Romans 3:28
Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.

Romans 10:4
For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

Ephesians 2:8-9
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

Galatians 2:16
knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.

Guess I'm toast as I can't grow anything close to a full beard - just wasn't given the facial hair for it . . .

Well you understand when Christ walked this earth He/they lived by under the law. So you posted Matt 19:16-17 why did you stop there? It keeps going.. the man .. Christ going to the house.. there is so much more this. Then your talking what Christ said to that one man still under living by the law and you not GOD you took that out of context and try to apply it to ever believer after Christ rose from the dead.. that alone is shouting TIME! 

Its stuff like this that hurts so many young in lord weak in the faith for they don't know but we will answer to HIM for this. The 12 talked about this stuff. Yet I really don't have to say anything because you said "I believe" well you are incorrect.  For it is by grace you have been saved through faith.  See anyone that calls on the name of the lord shall be saved OT NT. For God so loved the world He gave His only son that who soever believes shall not die but have ever lasting life. 

Man still judges by what he sees as God said in Samuel God does not He see the heart. See heres the rub.. if this is what you truly believe then praise GOD you better be doing it.. no one else has to believe follow what you believe. Thanks for sharing though

Titus 3.5-7:

"Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

⁶ Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;

⁷ That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life."

So a man can have long hair, tattoos and wear women's clothing?

and why are my posts still need to be approved? Have I not already said I will not "abusive" others anymore? Do you consider me a liar? Do you think I don't keep my word?

I might think because of not following the TOC about not discussing admin actions on the open forums.   But since I don't decide that, I would just have to suppose things.

Give thanks to God for that. I have to live like it is 6 AM in the movie Groundhog Day and the alarm clock has just rung. I may shave every day, and still wake the next day with a full beard just like it was the day before.
