Hi lgillems, welcome to the Forum and thank you for your question. Let's start with the above verse, you can sense the idea that the inspired author was attempting to convey. There are very many different ways that very many people interpret the Word of God. When plain sense makes the most sense... -well, we are not here to make judgements, so let the scripture verses speak to you for themselves. Since you came to this particular forum for an answer to your curiosity, it is likely that you are interested more than what just men and women in this world have to say, but what is the feelings of our Lord and Creator, as revealed through His Word. Remember, -It is always best to pray first to quiet your soul before you read the Word of God, and then you are better able to receive your answer. The common argument against the type of sin that involve body piercing as well as tattoos is that the bodies of Christians are the temples of the Lord. This happens when Christ is accepted as Savior. The Lord dwells in them, and they understand that they have received their body from God. This is the picture of a temple: —a place where God dwells, and sacred to his use, by his own claim and his creature’s surrender. Here is a companion passage for reflection, from the Book of Romans. Rom 6:16 Do you not know that when you present yourselves to someone as slaves for obedience, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or of obedience resulting in righteousness? Rom 6:17 But thanks be to God that though you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were committed, Rom 6:18 and having been freed from sin, you became slaves of righteousness. Rom 6:19 I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness, resulting in further lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness, resulting in sanctification. Rom 6:20 For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. Rom 6:21 Therefore what benefit were you then deriving from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the outcome of those things is death. Rom 6:22 But now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome, eternal life. Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. May our Lord bless you and guide you in your decisions as you seek Him. Keliy |
