1 Corinthians 11:16

“But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God's assemblies.”

Verse in context — 1 Corinthians 11

Doesn't even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?

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

But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God's assemblies.

But in giving you this command, I don't praise you, that you come together not for the better but for the worse.

For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it.
