Do you still quite like some of your tattoos' designs, then?

Take care.


Honestly, I like the design , the way an artist can create something like that, tkaes talent but I do not like the heartagram part at all. and I sure do not go around showing it off, its always covered, if I can help it.And if I had a chance too do it over again I would not. I guess I do not get the meaninf of your question, except that ur trign too get me too take back waht I said or maybe your trign too get me too think deeper about it?

Oh I think you said: "I wouldnt get mine covered up too put my past behind me, not yet anyways".

I guess what I said was in response to that, anyway.

Some ppl also like the idea of a faith related tattoo that will be an effective conversation starter, anyway: like, a conbination of good designs that you appreciate but also effective in talking to people about faith.

Take care.

I see now :) what I meant was by not yet anwyas, was god has not opened my eyes too seeign that tattos are good and maybe some day he will but right now its not right too me is all. And yes tattos is related too god can open discussions about faith, that is true.

hi, the Leviticus passage is not infrequently quoted. It also refers to men not trimming the corners of their beards; I wonder if the context is Old Testament Jews under the law in the land.

Do you have a tattoo already, maybe?

My girl friend seems to think that if I had a tatoo before getting saved its ok. But, any tatoo's I get after being saved is against GOD.
Where does it state in the bible that tatoo's are bad?

I also recently just got an earing, and she thinks this is also against GOD.
Where does it state in the bible that earings/piercings are bad?

Her statement backing up her reasoning/beliefs are as follows:
- Clothes yourself with the armor of GOD
- Earings were made for women to enhance their beauty (this is supposedly in the bible)
- The bible states clothing that pertains to men, and clothing that pertains to women, and that we are not to interchange it.
- Isaiah 3:13-16, it talks about jewelry, nose rings, and other piercings.
- Leviticus 19:28, speaks of tatoo's and defying the lords temple

I dont wear the earing or tatoo for anyone else. But rather, I wear it because I like it. No different than me liking to wear clothes with ties or not, etc... All I want to understand, and get better details is to whether tatoo's and specifically earings/piercings for a guy are against GOD, per his word. Dont care about whether its accepted in the workplace, in society, etc...

Thanks in advance,

jcd
