Christianity EtcRe: Most Tattooed Man In Brazil Finds Jesus, Undergoes Painful Laser Removal(Photos) by advanceDNA: 1:33pm On Jan 11
Originalsly:
Why would he be drawing more tattoos if he's now a Christian? ..
because or this kind of person its an identity, the tattoos are a way of life And pple who repent do get tempted on their past life..
Originalsly:
. is this what you understand he should show his faith by action means?
drawing of tattoos is an action....if he doesn't dissociate himself from that life he can still be drawn into them
Originalsly:
If he has become a Christian then he is "born again"....correct? ...old things are passed away
.....he should be moving forward in his new life.
so why don't u see getting rid of them not be part of his moving forward....why do you think his change has to be inward alone..
Will u say the same of a woman who used to dress nvde and later met christ ....will she continue in her old appearance? Will her new change of heat not impact her appearance??

Originalsly:
If the tattoos were symbols of evil ...I can understand his need to remove
so looking at that man, u feel humility, kindness, love, inspired the way he looked before?? I mean seeing someone like that should let you know why he ddnt want those tattoos anymore
Originalsly:
. If not ...it can even be used to bring others to the faith ..
like a woman that used to dress nvde can bring others like her to the faith by continuing bin that old lifestyle??

Originalsly:
.. on the grounds that the outward appearance doesn't matter. It's like some poor people will never enter church ...because of outward appearance ... they can't afford to buy clothes that will make them look like Christians.
What has poor pple got to do with this conversation...
Buy clothes that will make them look like Christians?? Please what are you saying?? I think your understanding of the context of this dialogue is way off

Can you quote where i said Paul's approach remains the same?
I been talking appearance since..u should get that was a typo error from auto correct

Soon (Paul) began to go to the synagogues and tell people about Jesus. He told the people, “Jesus is the Son of God!” All the people who heard Saul were amazed. They said, “This is the same man who was in Jerusalem trying to destroy the people who trust in Jesus! And that’s why he has come here—to arrest the followers of Jesus and take them back to the leading priests.” Act 9:20-21

So they recognized him but Barnabas is the one who introduced Paul to the Apostles telling them that he's now a changed man. That's what i meant saying appearance doesn't really matter but a change of heart! Act 9:27
How is this text prove your earlier point that Paul's approach remained the same way as the pharisees??
Christianity EtcRe: Most Tattooed Man In Brazil Finds Jesus, Undergoes Painful Laser Removal(Photos) by advanceDNA: 12:32pm On Jan 11
MaxInDHouse:
I am not against his decision rather what i'm saying is the real change should be from the inside just as Jesus reaches!
Mark 7:20-23

He's changes should be felt by people who sees his new behavior not appearance!
The thing is you are trying to separate his appearance change from inward change....I'm just saying both can go together ..

his appearance is part of his overall changes and both his new behavior and appearance can actually be felt by people weda they knew him before or not......
Christianity EtcRe: Most Tattooed Man In Brazil Finds Jesus, Undergoes Painful Laser Removal(Photos) by advanceDNA: 12:08pm On Jan 11
MaxInDHouse:
You are misconstruing the whole thing.

Since he has changed do you think he will still continue to draw tattoos on his body again?

Of course he will tell everyone that's his former lifestyle but now he's a changed person!
this is not just one tattoo on the wrist or finger he got when he was high.....this was a way of life inspired by old lifestyle....for pple like that it's an identity.....it's possible for him to feel a strong temptation after repentance for


Lets even leave all of the above...why are u against his need to remove all these things inspired by his old way of life that he no longer finds appealing?? ...

Isn't the inside supposed to influence the outside??
Christianity EtcRe: Most Tattooed Man In Brazil Finds Jesus, Undergoes Painful Laser Removal(Photos) by advanceDNA: 11:59am On Jan 11
MaxInDHouse:
Paul's appearance didn't change rather it's his attitude that changed.
how did u reach this conclusion?? Did the Bible give account of the appearance of paul after encountering Jesus??
Pharisee are know for their notice-me, proud, public validation seeking appearance....if u think Paul continued like that after encountering Jesus...u are just desperate to prove a point..

MaxInDHouse:
So when Christians saw him they were running away thinking he's still coming to persecute then not until they saw him preaching and teaching zealously about Jesus as the Christ.
Lol......so it's because of dressing they were running?? ....it's not because the recognized him as the man who was zealously persecuting and killed them?? Baba u don't have to be desperate to prove a point...

If u think a woman who dresses nvde should not feel a sober as humble need to change her outward appearance after encountering the son of God then I don't know what repentance means to you JWs.... U that u dress modestly with your tie and bag and your women dress decently is saying appearance will not be impacted after genuine repentance

...welldone sir ....
Christianity EtcRe: Most Tattooed Man In Brazil Finds Jesus, Undergoes Painful Laser Removal(Photos) by advanceDNA: 11:51am On Jan 11
Originalsly:
If he's really Christian then it should be about faith .... not appearance. He's still into vanity ... how he looks ...his appearance. What's on the inside ...his belief and faith should be reflected in action ..behaviour ... outpouring of love and humility etc .... not on the skin. He just confused ...tattoo ink be messing with his brain.
So he can keep drawing more tattoos?? U mentioned his faith should reflect in his action, behavior??
But drawing tattoo is an action.... and past way of life can be a temptation for a someone who repents........ So why do y'all see something wrong in disconnecting totally from his past ways which may be a temptation to go back??

....me I don't understand how y'all think anyone who encountered Jesus will not feel a strong sense of outward change from old life style and appreciate.....
Christianity EtcRe: Most Tattooed Man In Brazil Finds Jesus, Undergoes Painful Laser Removal(Photos) by advanceDNA: 11:42am On Jan 11
MaxInDHouse:
What changes do you think Jesus wanted?
Inward or outward? 2Timothy 3:5
Did Paul remain a pharisee after encounter with Jeus?? I asked you but u dodged it....

U cannot encounter God and it will not impact both your inward and outward.....it is the inside that is expressed outward ......

How do u encounter God, truly repent and say it's only inward changes but your outward remains complaint with your old life??

He did not find Jesus, his priorities have changed. It's a normal thing in life

Wasn’t this the same child who was born through surrogacy? I keep hearing her say “my child, my child,” as though the child was biologically hers. In reality, the child resulted from an arrangement that didn’t turn out as expected. If she truly wants a child, she may need to consider a different approach.

What I'm saying in essence is that he does not necessarily have to remove those tattoos before he can please God.

Raising pass mark is not the solution, after all, there have been cases where people with very high scores made blunders in practice.
its a start...we can attack issues from multiple angles.....we need to first produce high grade doctors from college .....not these doctors that buy let my pple go scores, doctors whose father's donate senate buildings and are pushed to graduate...

Jman06:
The solution has to do with curbing corruption in the sector, ensuring strict adherence to standard operating procedures and punishing severely those who failed to comply with set standards.
sir..u cannot give what you dont have..... ..see our leaders naaa.... the standard of fighting corruption will always be low because those in charge have low standards, they are full of certificate forgers, embezzlers, etc

Jman06:
There's need to encourage patients to seek legal redress when they suffer from any consequences of medical negligence.
agreed .......that's the purpose of education, knowing you have a right to sue..

but look around you ...the govt rapes us everyday with no consequences....Nigerians are subjugated by default....most that even know they can sue have lost hope in the corrupt justice system
.u cant tell an organization not to do damage control though

Jesus specifically chose Paul a violent Pharisee to serve as one of his Apostles and see what Paul did as many churches were built through the active preaching and teaching of a former Pharisee!😟
Ure just contradicting yourself....

U called Paul a former pharisee... Did he remain a pharisee while preaching and teaching?? ..how does one encounter God genuinely yet remain the same outwardly and only change inwardly?? I don't think its possible......tbcos the outward is an expression of what's inward

I don't see how getting 55/100 in anatomy should be allowed as pass mark for someone that must know every single aspect of the human body flawlessly or something could go terrible wrong

That's how one doctor suture the rectal passage and the vagina plus the urethra and everything thats close to that area together after fibroid removal......it was a very messy post surgery issue...and they still had the wicked guts to tell the poor woman to pay for corrective surgery.

I used to be a diehard Buhari adherent but looking back now I realize he didn't have any business being a president in a highly socioeconomic challenging and highly corrupt country like Nigeria, he shouldn't have done more than a term then, I do think that most of our presidents are usually not so corrupt but their aides and appointees are the ones who steal mindlessly, so about time we citizens initiate petitions and signatures to the national assembly for the introduction of death penalty like in China
They are all corrupt from the president, down to the appointees........and its the same outcome u will see after tinubu's tenure is over... because every president comes to play politics with the lives and. commonwealth of nigerians......it's the same script

Corruption & embezzlement is a norm...it's part of how each presidents runs the nation...

...each president allows a very significant amount of corruption and embezzlement....from.the executives to the judiciary and legislative arm without accountability otherwise they will frustrate his bills, appointments, and his proposal to borrow money for fake projects to steal more..

It's the same reason bulk of fuel and currency subsidy gains has ended as mere on-paper gains but masses feel nothing....

A woman who has experienced 8 miscarriages should, in my opinion, be subjected to further medical research to know why she had 8 of them. What were the possible causes? Are they genetic? Who else in her lineage has experienced such difficulties during pregnancy? Through this research, we can determine possible causes and solutions before it continues.
