Believers Marking their Faith with Tattoos

Christian TattoosThis is a story about a pastor who is expressing his faith by tattooing his body.

The pastor said “A lot of people get tattoos to represent things in their life that are
significant,”
“Religious tattoos are just kind of something that we desire to have as a decoration and as a proclamation to others that, ‘Hey, we love Jesus.’ ”

So is it OK to get a tatoo if it is telling people about God and/or His son Jesus the
Christ?

The pastor said: “For me personally, it’s a great witnessing tool,”
“A lot of times it’ll bring up the conversation and where we can just sit and start
talking about God. … That conversation would have never happened without the tattoo.”

FREE Bible Study: Genesis 1:1 – In the Beginning

Dark-Planet

Have you ever thought about this or asked yourself these questions? How did this all begin; the world that is?  How can we believe a God that we cannot see?  How can we know that He exist?

This is a lesson about the beginning!

Many of you probably heard the phrase making something out of nothing before.  You know when somebody takes something that is old that appear not to be worth much but is then fixed up or dressed it up to look presentable or may be even valuable.

However the truth of the matter is they really did not make something out of nothing.  They actually had something to start with or work from.  This is not the case when God created the world as you read per Hebrews 11:3.
