I've done a bit of research here on the issue of facial hair. When I went to college we men students were to be clean shaven, with nary an 11 o'clock shadow permitted. As I've grown up and as God has brought me to South Liberty Baptist to pastor, I of course, want to be as obedient to the Scriptures as I can.
Therefore the tiniest of minutiae, the most insignificant of details are important to me.
With that in mind, I would like to present to you the compilation and list of Scripture references that have led me to believe that it is wrong, (i.e. ungodly or sinful), for a pastor, preacher, or man of God (per your acceptable descriptor) to have facial hair (i.e., a "goatee," beard, etc.)
List of Scripture verses against facial hair:
Have a good day. :)
