I prefer living by grace, not by the law. My husband has a tattoo and this doesn’t make him bad at all. He loves God and people even more than some christians who hasn’t tattoos. However, God uses him to serve others and shows his love everyday.

Before tattoo was an “in” thing nobody wanted to “express” themselves. But now that it has become a trend promoted by Hollywood, suddenly everybody has the urge to “express” themselves through tattoos. Wonder where the urge come from.

Are they no better ways of expressing themselves besides tattooing? Is it necessary to go through the painful process of bleeding for the sake of “art”? What if after some time it’s no longer an “in” thing to have a tattoo? Remove them as there is no longer any urge to “express” themselves? What a silly thing to do!

Arts are meant to serve man, not the other way round!

Pastor Kong you are always encouraging Christians to live on the edge as close to the world as possible, have as much of the world as possible, just on border of but not offending God.

Always looking for loopholes in situations where the Bible is silent about and say it’s personal preference.

The Bible is silent about gambling, 4D, lottery etc. Can I do it?

Im a baby christian, after my acceptance, i only found joy and delight in the lord word’s and his world. For my eyes become aware of the fallen world and all the worldly sins around us. i also become more sensitive to how carnal the flesh is. i also become more sensitive to my own actions because i realise it does have an impact to my surroundings.
We all deals with our own individuals’ deeply rooted sins of the flesh daily. We all find ways to let the pressure out. We all have our own preferences and ways to identify or project our own individuality or identity, similar to our own name. (be it a tatoo, a LV bag, a unique pair of earrings). these we deals with daily.
As a baby christian, i do not think i have the wisdom to comment or dictate the rights or wrongs of the issue, but as a christian, i speak my mind. “lest not i cause stumble to my brothers”
To me, a tatoo is a picture on the skin, a picture tells a thousand words or decipher a thousand meanings. If my hearts tells me my tatoo maybe offensive to someone, i will hide it or do it on my back where its always away from sight if i had to do it.
But to those who wrote strongly and gave a strong affirmation on whether tatts are right or wrong, will you be able to accept a fellow brother or sister wholeheartely with tatts after your such a conclusive or even near jugemental perception is give?
To those who wrote freely on agreeing, are we sure our tatts are not offensive, are we sure we might not mislead in anyway to our friends or brethen or those of a lesser faith?
To me the above issue is a form of personal enjoyment and a personal choice to make, but all our choices now will comes with a form of responsibility to our master/lord and to our brethen.
To me, we are given wisdom and knowledge to consider and act for the benificial good of the main body but we are not given wisdom and knowledge to judge.
apologies if i offend anyone with my comments.
God bless all.

LunaG,

WOW! I’m really impressed with your comment. Full of grace, wisdom and love.

Put me to shame really.

God bless you, LunaG

Pastor Kong I heard some time ago you talk about Esther submitting herself to go through the perfuming process and others in the “beauty contest”. You used that to deduce that it’s ok for women to use cosmetics etc.

Well by the same logic then it’s must also be alright to marry non Christians because she married a pagan in the same passage.

Pastor Kong Hee’s blog “What about tattoo.” Here is a real life example of a inmate whose only way is to remove tattoo. “It’s not difficult to cut ties with gangs but the tattoo removal is painful. But it must be done if I want to change my life,” Ahmad added. Only inmates who have shown good behaviour and are committed to severing gang ties will be considered for this free treatment. Our CG have 2 tattoo brothers, and we love them. If you read Pastor Kong’s blog, there is one witness of how Lord Jesus had helped to remove tattoo. You need faith and believing in 4th dimension that tattoo be remove and it will. But most importantly, you have to have the Tattoo of sins being engraved in your mind and heart removed by receiving Lord Jesus as Lord and Salvation, freely receiving Eternal life.
