@Pearl PS: My wife and I talked to a young lady with the whole of John 3.16 tattooed on her wrist area in a tasteful lettering style; it was her favorite Bible verse and mine also. I'm sure other conversations have arisen as a result of the young lady's willingness to have that particular skin...

You must have felt startled...

Saving faith does indeed often give confidence and equilibrium. :)

It does seem that in some areas quite a lot of Christian younger men seem to be at peace with studded/ringed ears, anyway.

It's a spiritual unity which in principle is already there, and not something that has to be imposed.

@brakelite Tattooed men and women might sometimes be portrayed as being somehow very modern and avant-garde, but actually they evidence a deep-rooted, traditional and historic manner of expression when they are prepared and willing to allow various artistic languages and patterns of inking to be...

It's good in our waking moments to assess notions that may occur to us from time to time in the light of the Scriptures.

Good reference from Philippians 2, which wonderfully continues: 'For it is God that worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure'. :)
