@Sabertooth Thanks. So is the Wonder Woman drawing that you mention in your Media selection? or are you referring to something else that you did? As regards artistry that is specifically tattoo-related, I do think that tattoo art can reside within the bounds of modesty (something that some...

Thanks to all who voted so far in the poll! NB: If you have not yet voted yet in the poll, please vote now! :)

Thanks for your thoughtful comments, @Sabertooth . Did you write points 1, 2 and 3, above? or are they from a quote from someone else? I certainly agree with your final paragraph.

@Hidden In Him Your post is very refreshing. I do sometimes get flak because I suggest that artforms such as hard rock, faith based tattoos can be done in an attempt to honour the glory of God; but when comments such as yours are made by way of personal testimony I do feel encouraged and...

Not as cool today; dry and sunny at times.

I think 1 Corinthians 10.32 is profoundly thought-provoking as to the three entities in the world... :) How are you doing, @Naomi25 ? good to see you.

@Sabertooth I guess the angle of my original question was as regards your artwork and skills; and I guess as well that the idea that a true artist won't become skilled in drawing human beings "in case someone / Fundies, etc. are offended" is highly unrealistic.

In NT Greek, 'salvation' — SOTERIA — can also be translated deliverance.

@Pearl Yes, indeed: I wonder what it must be like for a regular listener to hard rock suddenly to be confronted by the claims of Christ in such a hard hitting way, as for instance through Disciple's 'Radical'?

Good insight; Hebrews seems to pre-suppose this also: a true knowledge of Christ and a true knowledge of His work and titles and offices can't really be separated.

'Life' is a big subject and big theme for John's Gospel and John's First Epistle.

@soul man So did you get any impressions yet as to why they started with their inkings? so many of their contemporaries seem to do it, anyway; probably for a huge variety of reasons. (I guess it does to some extent beg the poll question also as regards the scope for parlor work, right?)

Thanks for the comments, ppl... :)

Some things in Scripture are just not merely metaphorical.

@Soverign Grace Oh I do agree about the precious principle of love, which should really be practised by the place that is 'the pillar and ground of the truth', which is the church of the living God (1 Timothy 3.15). Thanks for your comment. So in your family do the men wear earrings as well as...

I appreciate your conscientious approach to such matters. Fact is also, while 30 - 40 years ago many Christian parents might - for example - have been opposed to their sons getting ear piercings, yet now so many of them do it that it's much more widely regarded as a subjective and personal...

@Sabertooth Thanks for your comments. I think that likewise ppl are going to have all sorts of different views about Christians working in tattoo parlors; it's likely inevitable, don't you think?
