Being raised Pentecostal Holiness, I'll admit it has always been a struggle for me to not judge someone's character, that has tattoos. The more the harsher judgment I would seem to give. I know now that it isn't a sin and have grown much in my relationship with the Lord. I also know some very good people that love the Lord and in some areas of their faith are probably stronger than mine. I still don't like it, but my flesh likes strategically placed tattoos on females sometimes. I feel like such a hypocrite at times but reading Romans 7 reminds me that all of us have the same battle with the flesh. It just may show up in different ways. Being raised though in a belief system to where just about everything was a sin and you were bound for hell. Has taken years to undue the self-righteousness it caused.

That's about as honest as I can be.


Romans 8:1-2
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, for the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of Sin and Death"
