This statement was made at a service held yesterday, Sunday January 13th at Pastor Chris Okotie's church auditorium. He told his members that tattooing their body or even undergoing plastic surgery is not a sin before God. He said a lot of people misinterpret a scripture in the bible which is supposedly against body art and enhancement. He said getting tattoos and plastic surgery is an individual decision and has nothing to do with God.

What are your thoughts on this?

Come again Pastor?

ok

and my patriotic moronigerians will always sit quietly waiting for someone to tell them what is wrong or not,
waiting for someone to read out chapters and verses of the same bible they have at home,
waiting for someone to tell them what god said and what he did not,
Let me ask you....Why does God talk to your pastor but doesn't talk to you??

Expecting NL Christians to quote this verse

Lev 19:28
You shall not make any cuts on your body for the dead or tattoo yourselves: I am the Lord

And leave out these ones

v.19 “‘Keep my decrees.

“‘Do not mate different kinds of animals.

“‘Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed.

“‘Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material.

v.27 “‘Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard.

Heehehee...

If you give that guy chance ihn too go place one tattoo for ihn face.

Okotie again

This guy is a publicity seeker. He should go and sit down in one place and keep his mouth shut abeg. I'm sick of seeing his oily/greasy face

I guess fornication, adultery and divorce are individual decisions and have nothing to do with God.

Mumu.

hw did i get here?OMG.....infact wu b chris okotie?

But Why Always Pastor!

.

IM NOT SURPRISED SINCE HE SAID DIVORCE AND REMARRIAGE IS NOT A SIN THEN WHAT IS TATOO AND PLASTIC SURGERY?

All religious books are contradictory. Doesn't matter which. This is why we have different beliefs and sects in one religion.

All you have to do is to provide proof from the bible to dispute his claim. An act is a sin not just because it doesn't sound right. It has to be backed up with the bible.

Psylas: he is not a man of God!

chalay, you are going too far with this one oooo....i want no part in this.....ill leave you to God....
