  1. He is not correcting or contradicting he is bringing balance to the message . This doesn't mean you don't cover your hair. He means both inward and outward should be the focus . Don't get it twisted covering of hair for woman based on the scripture is a must .

  2. I think you were quite harsh to say that he was addressing "hypocrisy" in Deeper Life. It is not hypocrisy to ask a lady to cover her head before entering into church, it is rather obedience to the Word of God. The Word of God admonishes female believers not to appear in the Presence of God with their heads uncovered. At a point in this video, during 4:01 to 4:17, Pastor Kumuyi said that a sister who is born again knows that she should cover her head when she comes into the church. So the Man of God is not encouraging the unscriptural practice of going to church with head uncovered. What he is simply counseling us against is the idea of rushing to cover a female's head as she enters the church without knowing whether or not she is born again. We should let her enter the church just as she is. After she listens to sermons and becomes born again, when next she wants to enter Church she will cover her head. Salvation first before adherence to the commandments of God. We should not try to make them adhere to God's Commandment of head covering when we don't even know if they are already saved or not. That is the Man's point. Don't misinterpret his message, please.

    And it is quite unchristian of you to refer to Deeper Life as hypocrites just because you do not share our religious beliefs. We are all members of One Body in Christ regardless of denomination. Let there be unity in the Body of Christ.

  3. I've always wondered whether the church is only for its church members. The church needs to repent on how many should have been rejected. God bless you sir for correcting this anomaly. I must say though these instructions were given by leaders. So . . .

  4. I think we all need to examine our hearts and take the word of God in the right perspective. The church has NEVER taught sisters to cover their heads 24/7. I have been a member since I was a Youthouth. I was at the first Sunday service in 1982. Some members have always misunderstood and misapplied the word of God, according to their past religious background and personal preferences. As such people grow in the church heirachy, they tend to impose their preferences on others under their leadership. However, some sisters actually cover their heads most times because of dust and some others, to be able to pray anytime the Spirit lays something on their hearts to pray about without needing to look for a covering.
    When we have heart conversion, we neither disobey the word of the LORD, nor condemn the guiltless on matters of no eternal value.
    I believe this correction and others like it being made by our GS are necessary for those who wrongly think everything everybody does in Deeper Life is what the church teaches. For those who have always properly read their Bibles and understood it, the teachings are always the same.

  5. After putting some of us in bondage for so long. Thank God for the Light of the word. Everyone needs to read the word of God and be led by the Holy Spirit not human doctrine or human believes.

  6. The Bible says it very clearly : She should cover her head, not her hair . Her hair has been given to her as a covering. I Corinthians 11 v 15b. So she is to cover her head with their hair, not shave her hair like a man. Why can't people read their bibles keenly??? Why bring your tradition to superimpose it on the Bible?
    And there are more important things a pastor should address, than spend precious time on head covering

  7. From watch TV and go to hell to drink coffee and go to hell of the early 70s to this! Some progress. So she will not be saved with her head uncovered!? If so why not wear the Burqa or Hijab! And do so always so as to go to heaven!.

  8. Pastor WF Kumuyi is correcting a lot of erroneous believes and practices amongst his followers due to religiousity , hypocrisy and ignorance of proper application of the Word of God. It is good to see this correction done by himself so that those "self righteous and Hollier than thou " members will know better. GOD BLESS PASTOR WF KUMUYI in Jesus Name .
    Praise ye the LORD !!!

  9. I will tag this as , the golden message of Daddy Kumuyi. He never told anyone to be dirty or poor to prove holiness but some pple just chose to be fanatics. God bless you my sister, I just subscribed for this.

  10. This is what a great man of God is ,he just clarified what it means for women to cover their heads,not any correction about the church in particular,moreso he already noticed or probably there had been a lot of complaints about overzealous ushers In deeper life and their holier than thou attitudes,he should be applauded for not concealing it and blurting out the truth, meaning he respects God more than what criticism humans has to offer. Simple!!

  11. The scriptures talks about covering the head and not covering hair. The Bible tells us what the covering is and it is not headtie or hats etc
    1Cor 11:13-16: "Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered? Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him? But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God."
