Subject: body piercings and why not |
Bible Note: You seem to be supportive of body piercing. Can you post anything from the New Testament which lends support to that practice. I know the following verse in the New Testament is addressed to woman, but I also believe it should apply all the more to men. 1 Pet 3:3 Whose adorning let it not be the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on apparel; 1 Pet 3:4 but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. In other words we should be more concerned about the internal inward condition, rather than outward external adornment. |
