Can men with man buns be saved?

[Cristo Rei]

One like this... The bigger the better... U can stash food in there and save it for later on in the day
U can even build a double moe man bun

So can men with man buns be saved?

I personally have never have had a man bun hairstyle, should I grow my hair longer and get the bun? Apparently they are a popular thing of my generation.

You probably get discounts at the coffee shop too with the bun!

I threatened this to my kids, and the look I got back was classic.
But young people, tatoos, rings out of everything, swearing, and generally doing everything and anything and no one is allowed to say there might be a problem with this, I mean square people hate drugs, getting drunk, watching extreme violence, pornography, humour that is so without boundaries it is hard to say where the humour actually is.

So a man bun is a bun too far, lol. Whatever this generation are trying to achieve it is not really working.

Nazirite - a vow to not cut their hair. In this case a bun to keep the hair under control could work.

That's IT! So you know of what I speak! What is more manly than that? A parted beard (man bun notwithstanding)

Well, it's definitely better than a mullett!

Ye come on, all Americans, come over to metric it's so much easier, less errors

Ha Ha yes, see science knows what the deal is. I don't think we can express an imperial unit in scientific notation.
Im not sure, like 9.87x10^3 i think that only works with metric.
I heard a rumour that America didn't switch to metric because the Soviets had switched to it. Sounds silly

I really doubt that that had anything to do with it. [I really don't know,] People don't like to change their daily routines and that would have required such a change. My teachers for the most part in high school and college were for the change... but I guess they were too small of a voice to make the difference.

Oh mate I remember when I started uni I thought I was good at maths... I was sorely mistaken... Physics was almost like magic for me

I used math quite a bit in chemistry and I love algebra. When I went to work for Social Security I quickly learned how useful algebra and the other math really was. I always enjoyed the challenge of it. Between the scrambled earnings messes, the family relationship decisions, proof of age investigations, et al., I had to make there was never a dull moment. I still enjoyed it even when close to retirement it was killing me because of the pressure. Sometimes I look back with a little longing but I am sure that if I had stayed on I'd be dead by now. When I was young I thrived on the pressure, but later on I was getting the most severe headaches that nothing short of the strongest prescriptions medicine would help.

Calculating money is almost like metric. 100 cents make a dollar so it is similar.
I propose we convert to a metric clock. 10 hours in a day with 100 minutes in each hour. It would help a lot with physics equations

Calculating money is almost like the metric system in most countries now perhaps , but...
I spent Christmas in London, England in 1969. They were in the process of changing their monetary system from the mess they had to metric. They did not suddenly change it but did it by a complex gradual process over a period of months. I would have had rough time with just the pounds, crowns, schillings and pence, but the mixed bag during the changing was unbelievable. I simply trusted the English when I bought anything. That is I trusted that they would give me the correct change for I really did not have a clue. Without using the current chart of formulas it was impossible and even with that chart, wow! I was only there for a few days so I really did not have time to learn something that soon would be obsolete anyway.

Why would external appearance matter to God?

 

[farouk]

I can't be bothered to read the whole of the thread but my thoughts turn away from peripheral stuff like 'buns', and onto "the sin that so readily besets men", such as 'adultery" as defined by Matthew 5:28, and which bars entry in the Kingdom of God, as per 1 Corinthians 6:9.
Can such an 'adulterer' (with or without a bun) be saved?

I would have thought that in context the sin that doth so easilty beset us, would be unbelief.

Well just to prove a point, I have commited the sin of unbelief by not believing that to be the sin that doth so easily beset me.
But I believe everything else so perhaps I can be excused.

Ahahaha true true... It is nice and green over there
We were young guys, being silly, hanging out the car yelling out BBBAAAAA every few minutes... LoL
But the source of lamb is just another reason why they should join us

Must admit I wouldn't say no to a tasty lamb chop.

@JunChosen
So are you telling me that because I hadn't "read on for a couple of verses" Christians can continue to commit adultery as defined in Matthew 5:28 and still be saved and enter the Kingdom of God?
And is the same 'passport' available to Christians who also continue to commit some of the
"Works of the flesh such as fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God"
simply because had I read on for another couple of verses I would have seen that:
"They that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts" (as per Galatians 5:19-24)

5:19-24 is a fundamental principle. It must be read in light of 1 John 3:9 that declares:
"Whosoever is born of God doth NOT commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God."

Most confessing Christians does not understand salvation, they feel they have to do works in order to enter the kingdom of God. Yet Jesus told Nicodemus, "except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God" (John 3:3).

"No man can (have power) come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him..." John 6:44.

And so on, and so on, and so on.

God saves and NEVER man!!!

I too could quote cherry picked scriptures which refute yours.
Indeed scriptures can invariably be cherry picked which undermine scriptures that underpin contrary convictions.
It's the essence of the plenary Biblical standpoint.

14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.

16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

God spoke in parables and without a parable He did not speak unto them (Mark 4:34).

There may seem apparent verses that contradicts other verses, but God is perfect in everything He does!! Therefore, scripture cannot refute another scripture. It is man's interpretations and misunderstandings of Scripture that are flawed.

I guess that you must be ‘young in the faith’, either in terms of ‘time’, or in terms of having spent your fellowship in the shielded environment of a very narrow minded ‘sinless perfectionist’ sect.

You jump to your cherry picked verse to prove that the reason why so many scriptures appear to contradict others is because they are of variable parabolic interpretation.

But the fact is that Jesus only spoke in parables when in mixed crowds containing both disciples and unbelievers

“Jesus’ disciples asked him, saying, what might the parable of the sower and the seed be? And he said, to you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others the mysteries are given in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand”

Show me a verse I have misinterpreted and I'll show you a person who lacks knowledge and/or understanding the things of God! Even a six year old who is a child of God, knows how to prophesy.

But the fact is that Jesus only spoke in parables when in mixed crowds containing both disciples and unbelievers

REALLY? Where do you read that!!?? Mark 4:34 states: "...and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples!

I guess that you must be ‘young in the faith’, either in terms of ‘time’, or in terms of having spent your fellowship in the shielded environment of a very narrow minded ‘sinless perfectionist’ sect.

What is your criteria for anyone to understand the things of God? What has the above have to do with anything? Consider John the Baptist.

Purely a result of homophobic programming.

 

[quietthinker]

I wonder how far supposed "men" will choose to let themselves be feminized? They have already begun wearing feminine jewelry and are shaving their body hair.

I don’t hear any objections to the pictures of Jesus with long hair.

If he did have long hair, which personally I don’t think he did, can you imagine it swinging around his face in the carpentry shop? Practicality in this situation dictates that the hair be contained; the method is personal choice. It has nothing to do with feminisation any more than a shaven head or being bald has to do with the ‘skin head’ phenomina

Nahhh, we need to differentiate between a homophobic program and homosexuality. Confusing the two results in poor judgment.
