Thread: OK, Brothers-in-Christ, Need Your Opinions...

I have noticed quite a few of you wearing hats here in the forum.









Not cool!

Much better than having them wear their hat in bars and keggers. I rather they not wear the hat but at least they are in church.

To the many churches that don't have a cultural dress code then it doesn't apply but we can't ignore the many churches across the globe which have cultural standards.

I would rather submit to a cultural dress code and be invited to minister in a church and hopefully be a blessing than dismiss them as old fashioned etc.
Ministers have to be aware of these principles when dealing with missions internationally as many doors will shut or open.
The great Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke at times dressed specifically to the customs of the nation. He lead millions to Christ and he submitted to the cultural dress customs when it was relevant.

Personally I am happy to wear shorts and casual clothing to Church because I feel free from any cultural dress code standard but I believe God expects Christians to honour the standards of a church if they visit, attend or minister.

Even believers that are liberated to wear casual clothing would get offended if someone sat in front of them with certain attire.
There are some that can sit in church with the most revealing outfit and tell everyone..'hey times have changed get with it'

I'm just speaking in general. I know there are cultural things and I wouldn't purposely go against them just to make a point. In general, is there anything with wearing a ball cap in church. Nope. That's all I'm addressing.

My hat is anointed so I can't take it off

In general I agree with you

Hence, why is it ok for a woman basically in any culture but not a man?

Yeah TT, I know, head covering.

I want to see a bunch of men wear these hats to church and sit in front of those who say hats are cool in church
