Long Hair.....
A young boy had just gotten his driver's permit and inquired of his
Father, an evangelist, if they could discuss his use of the car.
His father said "I'll make a deal with you. You bring your grades
up from a C to a B average, study your Bible a little, get your hair
cut and we'll talk about the car."
Well, the boy thought about that for a moment, and decided that
he'd settle for the offer, and they agreed on it.
After about six weeks they went into the study, where his father
said, "Son, I've been real proud. You brought your grades up,
and I've observed that you have been studying your Bible, and
participating a lot more in the Bible Study groups. But, I'm real
disappointed, since you haven't gotten your hair cut!"
The young man paused a moment, and then said, "You know,
Dad, I've been thinking about that, and I've noticed in my studies
of the Bible that Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long
hair, Moses had long hair and there's even a strong argument that Jesus had long hair."
To this his father replied, "Did you also notice that they all walked everywhere they went?"
