Popular Lagos pastor, Tony Rapu, in a new Instagram post has come out to discredit the argument in some quarters that it is ungodly to have enhance your body.

In the video he posted on his page, pastor Rapu pointed out that the holy book is silent about the subject of plastic surgery.

He, however, noted that if the surgery is done solely with the aim of becoming more comfortable with one self then there is no problem with it.

Here is an excerpt from the video below:

"The bible is silent about plastic surgery and there is really nothing in it that tells us it is wrong, so there has to be other considerations. If a person If a person is concious of a deformity or physical aspect of his or her body that is causing them some emotional discomfort, then cosmetic surfery is certainly an option. There are women who have had mastectomies and have had to have breast implants and we know many people who have benefited from surgerues, especially when the surgery is non-invasive and the side effects are minimal.

There really is nothing wrong with enhancing the quality of a person's life by surgery especially when the person is able to breathe better, walk better, or talk better and especially when psychological health is improved.

The challenge is when surgery begins to be an attempt to meet an emotional void in a physical way or to attract unnecessary attention to a person, or to seek approval from other people. In some of these cases, we are then beginning to deal with psychological issues or deep seated insecurities in a person. If surgery is for sexual attractiveness, simply because you want to be found more sexually attractive, then perhaps you are dealing with a deeper issue in terms of esteem.

So if surgery is for enhancing a vanity, then we are dealing with issues internally that surgery would probaby never be able to satisfy."

People should be careful with blasphemy

NOBODY:

Tomorrow now tonto and her gang go become choir in your church

This is a very good man and a philanthropist

The bible did not talking about television, telephone, aeroplane,surgery, organ transplant ETC, use your brain

Pretty confusing! What if someone like our own gay king says she feels comfortable being a lady. Does that narratives justify surgery?

Surgery in all it’s entirety to modify what God has given to you is totally wrong and should not be condoned!

LOW SELF ESTEEM is a major reason for cosmetic surgery

Pastor, the e-bishops are coming for you...to blast u silly with scriptures they don't even understand

okay

Maybe his wife has gone for butt enlargement

Laws,Religions, Philosophies , beliefs and ideologies are all man made . Humans will say dont kill it's against the law but you can do so if you are a soldier, so you have license to kill. Dont commit fornication but you can have sex if you are legally married...mehn! Who owns the legal system, God or man?

The US sanctioning countries against nuclear weapons , have the highest stockpile of it.

No action is wrong or right, it all depends....on so many things(pls dont ask me) which God is not even interested.

I support the pastor on this.

WIZGUY69:
Nairaland is filled with Sadists, haters and Nazists, go to Quora, twitter, Instagram, Reddit it's totally different from this place.
This forum is unique in a negative way.

Spot On! It's getting annoying and crazy, you will log out of twitter to nairaland and meet the same news, but different comments, while the twitter comments are always sensible and positive. The nairaland comments are always the positive. Like this place is a breeding ground for tribalists and illiterates.

You sure?

the Bible is an old book, so it doesn't know about modern technology and modern sins,
we just have to use our head, do what is right and run from bad things

your body is God's temple, any alteration on it is sinful

Na so

Is oka
