@Blueberry FYI...

Yes, well, I tend to be the scribe...

@Blueberry The word graffiti is loaded, I guess; but if in the Gospel age Bible quotes, etc. can be used in thought-provoking witness...?

I guess if one views the matter from the point of view of a lot of things in the church age - as a dispensationalist I would see the Gospel rather than the law as the rule of the believer's life - then if it can be used in Gospel witness, then it has value. Marriage is not for heaven, for...

Oh I've been writing Christmas cards... :)

Well, maybe ear piercing vouchers would be something to fall back on, on another Christmas or granddaughters' (or even grandsons') birthdays. (See as doing it seems to have become so popular, right?)

Oh yes, this was being discussed earlier; you're right.

I think a lot of ppl who do it — see for example the quote from the Bible Belt, below — would say that it's a way of using a proven means of witness as a conversation-starter. FYI: forums dot thewelltrainedmind dot com

Good verses there...

You're talking about scars now; Isaiah 53 comes to mind very solemnly and wonderfully...

Interesting. Isaiah 49.16 says: "Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me." For 'graven', the Amplified Bible has 'tattooed'. Did you marry her, btw? I don't suppose you did, though maybe it was for other reasons entirely; I'll reckon that true...
