Sometimes we "can't see the wood for the trees"; but if Scripture repeats a point, it's good to take note... :)

@Waiting on him Not sure I quite agree with the analogy in @Hisman's post, above... :)

Just a good idea health-wise; and subsequent health problems bore this out...

@Hisman FYI, I saw this report in Huffington Post: ' "...Most of my clients are in the older bracket," Gallo-Kohlas told The Huffington Post. "We see a lot of women in their sixties and seventies getting their first tattoos." Gallo-Kohlas recalls a woman in her sixties who got a tattoo because...

BibleGateway.com Dictionaries: MATTHEW, GOSPEL ACCORDING TO

We need to keep looking up (Hebrews 12.2; 1 Corinthians 11.26) in an age of unbelief.

@Waiting on him It used to be such a man thing to do; like, "Do it to feel macho" (military men, bikers). But this has changed so much; now it seems to be about expressing something specific, right? Like yours would be really specific.

The extent to which a "rights culture" blends with following the Humble Servant Who was obedient unto death (Philippians 2), is something which has doubtless exercised a lot of Christians down the years.

Well, I know that in the US particularly there is very much a "rights culture".

There is always blessing in being at peace Godward, rather than in making moves which while technically within one's rights could also be a form of self-assertion.

Do you think your daughter would get a "SOLA" tattoo? (to complement the ones she already has)

Sounds like a good question in whatever context... (But I'm having trouble following the thread of argument, actually...)

I myself do love and use the King James, anyway...

While I don't like smoking, I think it's one of those reasonable freedom issues between spouses.

What a great truth about the constant intercession of the Lord Jesus in Hebrews 7.25; and it is also asserted strongly in Romans 8! :) I do appreciate J N Darby also!
