I have been kept from getting tattoos as well in my 41 years. But before coming to Christ I could see in myself a proclivity for something to show off on my body. I'm glad I confined it to mostly t-shirts. I think the problem is when we make our boast in our flesh. With tattoos it's just something permanent unlike clothing, hairstyles, etc. I'm glad also that while growing up in Bulgaria getting tattoos wasn't popular at all among my friends. Now it's everywhere really and it's difficult for me to keep my eyes away from conspicuous tattoos. Kinda like it's nakedness. If I had old tattoos that I no longer identified with, I would definitely try to keep them covered. But isn't it similar with scars or missing teeth? When we are less than perfect outwardly it's a struggle. I've recently found out for example that root canals can a be cause for serious health issues and I have three (I've developed a form of arthritis after haviing them done). So losing three teeth is something I'm still wrestling with. But I digress. I know God is more concerned with what's on the inside, in the heart, but still I don't think we should be too negligent with our appearance to the point it causes people around us to stumble.
I'm 54 and just never felt any desire to get one....crazy how these days the person who doesn't have one is the exception. A retired radio talk show host named Neal Boortz used to say of tattoos: "A permanent reminder of a temporary emotion." Subbed to your channel today...catching up on your past videos. I've been a professional performing piano player for the past 25 years in night clubs. I've tried to be a light in a dark place for many many years now...but recently I've been asking the question, "Am I honoring God?" God may be pulling me away from that career. Please pray for me...that I will have clear discernment and direction from Him.
@@Pianodean Prayers your way for a clear answer. I’m 59 years old - I never got one scared 😨 since I was a child it was the mark of the beast- but I have my share of sin - I walked away from God 30 years ago Till finally my addiction brought me to my knees - Jesus was there - 23 months sober walking with him old things falling away and new things take its place- One crutch though is Porn - less frequent but I still fall to it. I need prayers in overcoming it
Amen Sis 💗🎉 I stumbled on your video and saw Romans 12 thinking “oh this is gunna be good.” You said it all my girl. I have been feeling the exact way about my tattoos, makeup, clothing. He washes us clean. Our God is an Awesome God 😍🙌
Even during my 30 years of walking away from God. Plus during addiction- part of me always told me don’t mark it and be proud of how I was. 23 months sober and back with Jesus- I’m so, grateful for not getting one.
I appreciate your perspective. Whenever I see someone who is still getting tattoos or body modifications and thinks it's cool, it tells me where their values are. If they claim to be Christian, I have a hard time taking them serious, unless their tattoos were done long ago, in which case I would see them as battle scars they received before waking up to the false idols that held their minds captive to a shallow mode of thinking.
I just watched your video and I was wondering what you thought on the subject. I got tattoos in prison when I was younger but about six years into my sentence Jesus saved and I never got another one and that was eleven years ago. I man glad you brought up first Corinthians 6:19, it is a very important and powerful verse. Thank you for your message 😊😊
@@JohnGriffin-n4r it is slightly controversial as you will hear many Christians say it is not a sin, and I was once in that category, but I believe as you mature and hear what God is saying in his Word… you naturally will not want to do it anymore. ♥️ thank you brother for your comment.
I have many tattoos, all but 1 were added after my born-again experience at 19. Now by God's grace as I mature in Him, (over 30 years), have not added more. Your take on letting things be done with love is crucial! You refer to scripture in a very balanced way. Thanks for doing this video! I've prayed for you and your family often since joining the channel. Your constant smiles add pleasant seasoning to hard topics.....😊We thank our Lord Jesus Christ for who you are, Sarah.
Congrats sis. It's not the tatts that are the issue, it's being willing to allow God to sanctify us in every area of our lives...supernaturally. It's always a beautiful thing when God changes our minds and hearts in a loving way. He is truly good and loving towards us.
I like how you are thinking. My last tattoo took me about 6 months put through. I will say though the artist was kind and looked at me and said thank you for letting me be the stained glass artist of your temple to your God.
@@sarahspeaksup yeah she it was a tattoo for a pilgrimage I did. She wants to take her partner on it. Told her if she gets to go give me and my wife a call we would walk with them.
I'm an Holiness preacher and I enjoyed what you had to say and you are beautiful just the way you are your saying God I'm pleased with the way you made me.thats a good word
This video shows a lot of Christian maturity and says a lot about your character. Well done! As I talk with young people about getting tattoos, I remind them that what is important to you now may not be so important to you in the future. I can think of a lot of things that were priorities in my youth that I no longer care about. A tattoo seems like a lifetime commitment, so ensuring that this is what you want to say about yourself for the rest of your life is important. As for Romans 12, I was challenged as a kid to memorized the entire chapter in fifth grade. That was way, way back in 1973. I still remember at least some of it, to the point where if I hear someone reading it then I'll immediately pick up that it's Romans 12. I am thankful that by God's leading you are able to see this text as something that you need to do. Perhaps your example should be a reminder to us all, myself included, to make this a priority in our lives.
@@Damonlee86 you are,don t know about sarah,lol,just kidding,i mglad you know how luckynyou are,i ve been alo e for too long,but maybe its my karma,take care guys and cherish one another,jesus loves you.
Sometimes difficult issues are explained in such a simple, succinct way...anyone can understand it. Thank you for articulating this in a such a non judgmental yet truthful way. It changed my mind about some things as well
I'm completely new to your channel! Thank you for such an inspiring video! I've never been interested in tattoos, but everything else you meantioned was my spiritual growth as my relationship with our Lord became more personal and more strong! I really related to what you said about even music! I loved secular music, but with time that love was gone, the songs became sad and lifeless and I honestly do not miss secular music one bit. I'm not saying Christians have to give it up, its just how I feel for myself. Thank you for the reminder of 2 Timothy 2:21!
@@pjshaw8608 regarding your last sentence, Exactly! We are led at different paces in different ways from certain things and towards other things. Appreciate you 🙏
i am a christian and by gods grace people do become enlightened and with that comes growth and positive change.. never had tattoos but there are many things that give the enemy a foothold such as pop culture, most movies, most tv shows, most music, social media, vanity, etc, etc..i dont have any interest or desire for any of this anymore. excellent message!
The Bible says, "he that is spiritual judges all things." If you wan't to conforn yourself to the world and be like worldy women ... get tattoos. It's not appropriate for a Christian woman to get tattoos but to gaurd her purity and remain wholesome. "Every tree is known by it's fruit."
I started the process of removing my visible neck tattoo, the biggest reason for me was that if new Christians in the faith joined the church and see my tattoo they might think that it is ok to do especially with how much the world has influenced the church to start makeing excuses to get them
And inner beauty amplifies outer beauty anyway... however, this message is timely for me. I've been going to the gym for 35 years and have male body dysmorphia disorder. I see myself completely different than other see me. I'm working through it and pray for the day that I quit the gym and remain healthy other ways. For the Glory of God, NOT for me! God bless you Sarah and thank you!
So very well said , l needed to hear this . I have been struggling with my own self perception. I realize now it’s time to move past those decisions made prior to knowing Jesus . Loving and accepting yourself and your past choices . Learning and growing and treating yourself to the best of your abilities. This lady gets real ……… just what l needed . Thank you !
Hi Sister, This really blessed me and encouraged me, I thank the LORD for this message and for using you for His Glory. I got a few tattoos and till recently wanted more and bigger ones but God has been removing this desire from me because as you said I was looking for some validation and my identity but my identity is in Christ Jesus - Yeshua. It's about everything as you said and God tells us in His Word. It's not just Tattoos but everything else inner and outer of the body- is it lining up with God's Word for His Glory and the motive behind it. Are we in full submission to God? Such great things to ponder on and God talking to us daily about. It is challenging and hard but God is helping us and I pray we all hear this and reflect and fully desire to submit to God in light of what He has done for us as you said. Lord Help us! We all struggle with different things but God is faithful to forgive us and help us live the lives He wants us to live for our good and His Glory. "Let love be our highest goal" as you said, that spoke to me and convicted me. We can only do it with His help and as we seek Him daily for how to live and walk in this world. Be blessed and encouraged Sister in the LORD! Thank you 🙌🙏❤😊 1Chronicles 22:19a "Now set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD Your GOD."
The Bible is very much like a tuner for a musical instrument We basically have to tune the instrument daily When we read the scriptures we are just checking if our life is in tune❤ Keep up the fight sister
What a beautiful word, with great wisdom and insight from such a young women, keep the faith and finish strong! Greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world
1 Corinthians 10:23-33 -- I believe that's also relevant to your message here. And what wonderful freedom there is in selflessness, that which comes from serving God and others. Humility. Forgiveness. Compassion and sensitivity toward the lost. Christ's Love is everything, it is the highest form of righteousness. Surrender: not my will, but His will be done. For His purposes and His glory. Forever. Amen.
Amen sister! Good stuff "is this choice propelling me towards the calling that God has put upon my life" I love that! .... The perfect Berometer for all things pertaining to life !
First time visitor here. God’s blessings and love to you and your family! I have been watching alot of videos of so many confused lost folks that seem to be just completely blinded by this world. Truly hating Christians and any form of godliness. Our country in such a mess it seems. Worse than ever. It is way refreshing and hopeful to see a video like this in which a young woman is just the opposite and wants to serve God. If family and this country has any hope of surviving, you, your husband and those who are like y’all are this countries only true hope in its citizens. Much encouragement to you and yours! You nailed it when you said the word “identity”. Misplaced identity (along with unrealistic expectations (rooted in pride)) is spot on. Our identity in Christ is first and foremost one of newness. We are new creations in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). Identity is defined as “the collective aspect of the set of characteristics by which a thing is definitively recognizable or known,” so our new identity in Christ should be recognizable both to ourselves and to others. As far as tats.. The Bible is pretty much silent on tats. I don’t like them, especially on women, because I think it just takes natural beauty away. And makes men look thuggy. But again, I don’t judge a person on tats or no tats. Its what inside and the inside change and sanctification that matters. As far as make up, there is nothing wrong with wearing makeup as long as it is done modestly and a Christian woman does not neglect her spiritual life like you mention. However, the Bible does say that women should adorn themselves in a way that is modest, sober, and shame-faced, and not with costly array or broidered hair. And yes LOVE is KEY… Have to be careful not to stray into legalistic attitudes though which underminds Gods love working through the believer. In other words, if I see a woman with tons of paint on her face and tats, I should not shun the person. Same for a tatted up man. Judge by actions and attitudes and what they truly believe and the fruits that come from that person. Judge righteously not piously. More to consider in this process… What is motivating the sanctification process? Love or compulsion to be perfect for God? The former brings freedom in Christ, the latter brings bondage and legalistic human efforts that makes us and others ultimately miserable. So something to always test and pray about. Otherwise we are leaning towards self righteous behavior. Some things to consider before tatting up ones body: Kids…thinking of getting a secret tat.. Children are to honor and obey their parents (Ephesians 6:1-2). For a minor to get a tattoo in violation of his or her parents’ wishes is biblically unsupportable. Tattoos born of rebellion are sinful. Concentrate on the inward you… “Outward adornment” is not as important as the development of the “inner self” and should not be the focus of a Christian (1 Peter 3:3-4). A person who desires a tattoo to garner attention or draw admiration has a vain, sinful focus on self. Whats the motivation… God sees the heart, and our motivation for anything we do should be to glorify God (1 Corinthians 10:31). Motivations for getting a tattoo such as “to fit in,” “to stand out,” etc., fall short of the glory of God. The tattoo itself may not be a sin, but the motivation in getting it might be. Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit… Our bodies, as well as our souls, have been redeemed and belong to God. The believer’s body is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). How much modification of that temple is appropriate? Is there a line that should not be crossed? Is there a point at which the proliferation of tattoos on one body ceases to be art and starts becoming sinful mutilation? This should be a matter of individual reflection and honest prayer. Stumbling block to others… We are Christ’s ambassadors, delivering God’s message to the world (2 Corinthians 5:20). What message does the tattoo send, and will it aid or detract from representing Christ and sharing the gospel? Are tats an expression of faith… Whatever does not come from faith is sin (Romans 14:23), so the person getting the tattoo should be fully convinced that it is God’s will for him or her. The bottom line is that getting a tattoo is not a sin, per se. It is a matter of Christian freedom and should be guided by biblical principles and rooted in love. Fear God and count the cost! The cost is full of rewards in Christ✝️ Motivated inwardly by Gods love to share His Gospel in a loving way, amen.
1 Thessalonians 4:3 For it is God’s will that you should be holy: You must abstain from sexual immorality; 4 each of you must know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, 5 not in lustful passion like the Gentiles who do not know God; 6 and no one should ever violate or exploit his brother in this regard, because the Lord will avenge all such acts, as we have already told you and solemnly warned you. 7 For God has not called us to impurity, but to holiness. 8 Anyone, then, who rejects this command does not reject man but God, the very One who gives you His Holy Spirit.
I have 12 tattoos and wish I had never gotten any! I forgive myself, and in heaven, I'll be given a new body without them ❤ You're right though, it shows growth!
Very wise discernment. I like how Paul says it in 1 Cor 6:12 All things are permitted for me, but not all things are of benefit. All things are permitted for me, but I will not be mastered by anything.
Absolutely wonderful This was my testimony years ago and is today… It’s beautiful to hear and see that the recipe is the same for us all .. when we really submit, this is the cleansing process. We are not of the world..
I found out also about body building! that's a very tricky thing for Christian men! is it for health? is it for working in your, or your job call's for it? like a cop, or fireman, etc. or is it to be professional body builder reasons? or is it to show off your body to the opposite sex's? pray for Christian men and women, who like to be in a fit body and in sports, or just want to work out?
I have been seeking God a lot over the last 4 years, recently I started exercising, lifting weights because my lifestyle of prayer had lead me to lose a lot of weight and muscle mass which made me feel quite insecure about my appearance. This last week I was struggling a lot in prayer and unable to draw near to God, I came out of prayer and lay down in bed and was telling my frustrations to the Lord about why I was unable to pray. He showed me that my body had become an idol and how my own vanity had become an issue for me that was creating a barrier between us. Since then I stopped working out and have grown much closer to Him. This issue is always about the heart, there can be nothing in the heart that comes between you and God, as even the slightest hint of idolatry divides the heart and makes it impossible to seek Him with our whole heart. Working out occasionally for fitness I don’t believe is an issue an I may in the future do a little bit of exercise to simply stay fit, but when it gets to the point of vanity it becomes sin, and even idolatry as it did with me.
@@EaglesNest1986 that's a real nice testimony, I'm glad that you came out and said that! it's important that others read what you said! because you can forget to Worship The Lord Jesus Christ! and worship your self! it's not easy to do good, but end up doing wrong, I found my self making excuses, to build up my body for my reason! it's always me that has the reason why I should build up my body! I had never asked the Lord for a reason why I should work out! but now I did! and the thought I got was for health reason! maybe ask The Lord Jesus, for a reason why you should work out? and please let me know what came into mind? keep the Faith! Jesus saves!
Totally agree 100%. I have two large tattoos but coverups. My new tattoo of a large wing on one arm and shoulder and armor on the other. However, if I had no tattoos, I would have preferred to have none. It's an even more expensive endeavor if you cover that sucker up like I'm in the process on one arm and shoulder.
Thank you. We will never be fully free of temporal desire until we are with Christ. That is not a license to sin but an encouragement to resist our pridefull desires and idolotry. The less we think of our pridefull selves the closer we come to God.
I had tattoos before I became a Christian also but the Bible is against it and so am I. Leviticus 19:28, which says, "You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead, or incise any marks on yourselves🙏
Thank you and bless you Please pray for me to find a nice job, I've been unemployed for more than 3 months. I pray for you all to be well, healthy and at peace. Bless you all
Hello again Sarah! I’m 51 and have never had tattoos, but I’m always curious about other’s and quite often ask them what they mean. I know that you’ve been saved, but has anyone in your church or Christian community still given you a hard time about your tattoos and make suggestions about you covering them up? I personally don’t see the big deal, but I know that many people of faith often judge a book by its cover. I am struggling to come back to God after failing far away 36 years ago. I never really cared for church or Christian podcasts, but you just make me feel comfortable and you’re so down to earth!!! You’re actually more like Jesus than a clean cut preacher in the pulpit! Your tattoos help tell your story!!! Sending hugs!!!
That was super kind of you. Some of the old school crowd has given judgey vibes here and there but I find tattoos to be so common people are more intrigued than judgmental. Yea they definitely do tell a story! And my very last one was “Yeshua” , I wanted the name of my savior to be the last and final tattoo I ever received after all the worldly tattoos I had gotten.
Hi Sarah Love your testimony. I am a man who is on the journey…my tattoos were much less about adornment and much more about being really meaningful moments to me, they represented different moments and events in my life that I believe shaped and formed my character, my story I guess. The day I broke and repented and surrendered to Him without condition or reservation, was the day my Tattoos and their stories ended…the chapter those wrote in my human timeline was finished, and a new chapter and timeline began, the one He writes for me, rather than the one I wrote for myself. Yes I still wrestle with things, I still am tested and tempted, but the direction of my choices, and life has flipped upside down. Everything the world brings me no longer is a trap to confine me, but rather an opportunity to overcome and develop me, to refine me, to shape me into what He asks of me…He never said it would be easy, He never said that we would be freed of pain or persecution, however He does promise that His inner peace is always with us no matter what the storm….for He is the Prince of Peace. Thank you Sarah for your testimony, you inspire many….He lives in you and it shows. 🪽✝️🙏

@@sarahspeaksupI think my comment might have been removed because I placed the link of the video I recommended to you. So the title is called “Godliness vs Legalism” & the UA-cam channel is called “Theocast.” I found it very helpful for me to learn how to be godly without turning into a pharisee (as you mentioned towards the end of your video). I don’t agree with everything John & Justin teach but they are very good at explaining how we can & should be godly people without allowing that godliness to puff us up & us weaponizing it. Thanks for adding that part to the end of your video. I think it’s extremely important to know why we do what we do.
1 Peter 3:3-4 - 3 "Do not let your adornment be merely outward-arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God." I'm sure your husband appreciates you not giving up on deodorant, LOL!!! Great message and right on the mark. God bless in all you do!
Leviticus 19:28 NIV✝️Thank you Jesus!!!! I’m so very proud of you my Sister, you are truly born again, look at you now, your light is shining so bright,lost souls are emerging from the darkness heading towards you. Just open your mouth and the Lord will fill it with what you should say 🌱🕊️🌸
Thank you young lady, I needed to hear this. I have plenty of skeletons in my closet. I will work on this now that I have heard this message that you have given. Thank you so much, I needed this message to rejuvenate my mind.

It's time to grow up in our thinking, and put selfish considerations aside. We must be able to consider things from the perspective of, the greater good! not our personal preference or bias, but what is best for society as a whole.
Awesome sister! I have been learning about the Catholic church lately, given the continuity and historicity, it is the true church of Jesus Christ, however as a protestant, I know he still loves me, but he is calling me to his Catholic Church, thank you, there is a lady on youtube called "The Religious Hippie" she is a Catholic and I like her, God led me to her, also "Pints With Aquinas" is a good Catholic channel. Thank you! May Jesus Bless you!
@@DanielParedes-m2r thank you for sharing. I know of a few people who are converting from Protestant to Catholic. I myself don’t feel led that way as I have trouble finding ANY church that hasn’t swayed from biblical truth. Stay grounded in the word and compare everything you see being done and said to the Bible. God bless you 🙏🩵
The Catholic Church was not started until at least 300 A D. Jesus never said anything about following a church or denomination, He said repent and follow Me.
As an artist, I really desired tattoos when I was much younger, but by the time I was old enough to get them something told me not to. It's like I have this instinctive feeling not to mark my body. I see nothing wrong with them. However, as you mentioned, we are already perfect, and everything else is an aesthetic. You speak a lot of truth in this video in general. Remembering God is like being at the summit of a mountain. Btw 12:43 Hair or spirit falling downwards? 😅
Oh heavenly father I love you so thank you for being there for me as I am for you . Without you I do not exist , without me you do not exist . Thank you my Father for giving me life so that I can appreciate you and love you
Well Sarah, this was a beautifully said message. You are a truly born again women who has her priorities set correctly. Glad your on UA-cam. I was in your position when i first got saved, but I got destroyed by an endless barrge of lies and confusion. If I knew somebody with your strength in the Lord, maybe things would have rurned out different for me. I have been trying ro get back into the graces of the Lord for decades and ti no avail. I probably forfeited my salvation around 3 years after salvation. I say thia to tell you to stay on this road your on and Gid will stay with you. Salvation us a gift and if i am reading the bible correctly, the gift can be recinded. To this day, He doesn't take me back. When I watched your video, I saw that I was where you are at now, but I am no longer. So do like you said in this video, and you will have a glorious welcome into His kingdom on that day. Keep posting.
I totally agree with you, I don't think tattoos glorifies our Lord, Most people try to justify having tattoos but if thyre being honest, we just want to be cool that's the reason why we want to have it.

"Does this honor God or does this amplify myself" great perspective... and perhaps, does it bring joy to my husband.
@@pbw8384 yes 🙌 I like what you added 👌
I appreciate your perspective. Whenever I see someone who is still getting tattoos or body modifications and thinks it's cool, it tells me where their values are. If they claim to be Christian, I have a hard time taking them serious, unless their tattoos were done long ago, in which case I would see them as battle scars they received before waking up to the false idols that held their minds captive to a shallow mode of thinking.
I just watched your video and I was wondering what you thought on the subject. I got tattoos in prison when I was younger but about six years into my sentence Jesus saved and I never got another one and that was eleven years ago. I man glad you brought up first Corinthians 6:19, it is a very important and powerful verse. Thank you for your message 😊😊
@@JohnGriffin-n4r it is slightly controversial as you will hear many Christians say it is not a sin, and I was once in that category, but I believe as you mature and hear what God is saying in his Word… you naturally will not want to do it anymore. ♥️ thank you brother for your comment.
The thinking and the keywords and the presentation match the Bible.
Amen.
I have many tattoos, all but 1 were added after my born-again experience at 19. Now by God's grace as I mature in Him, (over 30 years), have not added more. Your take on letting things be done with love is crucial! You refer to scripture in a very balanced way. Thanks for doing this video! I've prayed for you and your family often since joining the channel. Your constant smiles add pleasant seasoning to hard topics.....😊We thank our Lord Jesus Christ for who you are, Sarah.
@@rdetwiler5589 thank you for speaking words of life into me and praying for me. ♥️ I am encouraged.
Congrats sis. It's not the tatts that are the issue, it's being willing to allow God to sanctify us in every area of our lives...supernaturally. It's always a beautiful thing when God changes our minds and hearts in a loving way. He is truly good and loving towards us.
Amen. It’s about consecration. The Holy Spirit changes us.

I'm an Holiness preacher and I enjoyed what you had to say and you are beautiful just the way you are your saying God I'm pleased with the way you made me.thats a good word
This video shows a lot of Christian maturity and says a lot about your character. Well done!
As I talk with young people about getting tattoos, I remind them that what is important to you now may not be so important to you in the future. I can think of a lot of things that were priorities in my youth that I no longer care about. A tattoo seems like a lifetime commitment, so ensuring that this is what you want to say about yourself for the rest of your life is important.
As for Romans 12, I was challenged as a kid to memorized the entire chapter in fifth grade. That was way, way back in 1973. I still remember at least some of it, to the point where if I hear someone reading it then I'll immediately pick up that it's Romans 12. I am thankful that by God's leading you are able to see this text as something that you need to do. Perhaps your example should be a reminder to us all, myself included, to make this a priority in our lives.

I'm completely new to your channel! Thank you for such an inspiring video! I've never been interested in tattoos, but everything else you meantioned was my spiritual growth as my relationship with our Lord became more personal and more strong! I really related to what you said about even music! I loved secular music, but with time that love was gone, the songs became sad and lifeless and I honestly do not miss secular music one bit. I'm not saying Christians have to give it up, its just how I feel for myself. Thank you for the reminder of 2 Timothy 2:21!

The Bible says, "he that is spiritual judges all things."
If you wan't to conforn yourself to the world and be like worldy women ... get tattoos. It's not appropriate for a Christian woman to get tattoos but to gaurd her purity and remain wholesome. "Every tree is known by it's fruit."
I started the process of removing my visible neck tattoo, the biggest reason for me was that if new Christians in the faith joined the church and see my tattoo they might think that it is ok to do especially with how much the world has influenced the church to start makeing excuses to get them
Such a good message. All the points you made are correct. Thank you.
And inner beauty amplifies outer beauty anyway... however, this message is timely for me. I've been going to the gym for 35 years and have male body dysmorphia disorder. I see myself completely different than other see me. I'm working through it and pray for the day that I quit the gym and remain healthy other ways. For the Glory of God, NOT for me!

Hi Sister, This really blessed me and encouraged me, I thank the LORD for this message and for using you for His Glory. I got a few tattoos and till recently wanted more and bigger ones but God has been removing this desire from me because as you said I was looking for some validation and my identity but my identity is in Christ Jesus - Yeshua.
It's about everything as you said and God tells us in His Word. It's not just Tattoos but everything else inner and outer of the body- is it lining up with God's Word for His Glory and the motive behind it.
Are we in full submission to God? Such great things to ponder on and God talking to us daily about. It is challenging and hard but God is helping us and I pray we all hear this and reflect and fully desire to submit to God in light of what He has done for us as you said.
Lord Help us!
We all struggle with different things but God is faithful to forgive us and help us live the lives He wants us to live for our good and His Glory. "Let love be our highest goal" as you said, that spoke to me and convicted me. We can only do it with His help and as we seek Him daily for how to live and walk in this world. Be blessed and encouraged Sister in the LORD! Thank you 🙌🙏❤😊
1Chronicles 22:19a "Now set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD Your GOD."
Amen all things are lawful but not all things are expedient
The Bible is very much like a tuner for a musical instrument
We basically have to tune the instrument daily
When we read the scriptures we are just checking if our life is in tune❤
Keep up the fight sister
Amen - well said!❤

Great job!!! Really nice to see people being changed and honest about it!!
1 Corinthians 10:23-33 -- I believe that's also relevant to your message here.
And what wonderful freedom there is in selflessness, that which comes from serving God and others.
Humility. Forgiveness. Compassion and sensitivity toward the lost. Christ's Love is everything, it is the highest form of righteousness.
Surrender: not my will, but His will be done. For His purposes and His glory. Forever. Amen.

Thanks for your honesty and faith, Sarah.
First time visitor here. God’s blessings and love to you and your family!
I have been watching alot of videos of so many confused lost folks that seem to be just completely blinded by this world. Truly hating Christians and any form of godliness. Our country in such a mess it seems. Worse than ever.
It is way refreshing and hopeful to see a video like this in which a young woman is just the opposite and wants to serve God. If family and this country has any hope of surviving, you, your husband and those who are like y’all are this countries only true hope in its citizens. Much encouragement to you and yours!
You nailed it when you said the word “identity”.
Misplaced identity (along with unrealistic expectations (rooted in pride)) is spot on.
Our identity in Christ is first and foremost one of newness. We are new creations in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). Identity is defined as “the collective aspect of the set of characteristics by which a thing is definitively recognizable or known,” so our new identity in Christ should be recognizable both to ourselves and to others.
As far as tats..
The Bible is pretty much silent on tats. I don’t like them, especially on women, because I think it just takes natural beauty away. And makes men look thuggy. But again, I don’t judge a person on tats or no tats. Its what inside and the inside change and sanctification that matters. As far as make up, there is nothing wrong with wearing makeup as long as it is done modestly and a Christian woman does not neglect her spiritual life like you mention. However, the Bible does say that women should adorn themselves in a way that is modest, sober, and shame-faced, and not with costly array or broidered hair.
And yes LOVE is KEY…
Have to be careful not to stray into legalistic attitudes though which underminds Gods love working through the believer. In other words, if I see a woman with tons of paint on her face and tats, I should not shun the person. Same for a tatted up man. Judge by actions and attitudes and what they truly believe and the fruits that come from that person. Judge righteously not piously.
More to consider in this process…
What is motivating the sanctification process?
Love or compulsion to be perfect for God? The former brings freedom in Christ, the latter brings bondage and legalistic human efforts that makes us and others ultimately miserable. So something to always test and pray about. Otherwise we are leaning towards self righteous behavior.
Some things to consider before tatting up ones body:
Kids…thinking of getting a secret tat..
Children are to honor and obey their parents (Ephesians 6:1-2). For a minor to get a tattoo in violation of his or her parents’ wishes is biblically unsupportable. Tattoos born of rebellion are sinful.
Concentrate on the inward you…
“Outward adornment” is not as important as the development of the “inner self” and should not be the focus of a Christian (1 Peter 3:3-4). A person who desires a tattoo to garner attention or draw admiration has a vain, sinful focus on self.
Whats the motivation…
God sees the heart, and our motivation for anything we do should be to glorify God (1 Corinthians 10:31). Motivations for getting a tattoo such as “to fit in,” “to stand out,” etc., fall short of the glory of God. The tattoo itself may not be a sin, but the motivation in getting it might be.
Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit…
Our bodies, as well as our souls, have been redeemed and belong to God. The believer’s body is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). How much modification of that temple is appropriate? Is there a line that should not be crossed? Is there a point at which the proliferation of tattoos on one body ceases to be art and starts becoming sinful mutilation? This should be a matter of individual reflection and honest prayer.
Stumbling block to others…
We are Christ’s ambassadors, delivering God’s message to the world (2 Corinthians 5:20). What message does the tattoo send, and will it aid or detract from representing Christ and sharing the gospel?
Are tats an expression of faith…
Whatever does not come from faith is sin (Romans 14:23), so the person getting the tattoo should be fully convinced that it is God’s will for him or her.
The bottom line is that getting a tattoo is not a sin, per se. It is a matter of Christian freedom and should be guided by biblical principles and rooted in love.
Fear God and count the cost! The cost is full of rewards in Christ✝️
Motivated inwardly by Gods love to share His Gospel in a loving way, amen.
@@FleagleSangria loved reading this. Thank you for breaking it down so well 😁🙏 appreciate you
1 Thessalonians 4:3 For it is God’s will that you should be holy: You must abstain from sexual immorality; 4 each of you must know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, 5 not in lustful passion like the Gentiles who do not know God; 6 and no one should ever violate or exploit his brother in this regard, because the Lord will avenge all such acts, as we have already told you and solemnly warned you. 7 For God has not called us to impurity, but to holiness. 8 Anyone, then, who rejects this command does not reject man but God, the very One who gives you His Holy Spirit.
Amen to God's Holy Word
Very refreshing conversation.
Very much appreciate this! Thankyou.
I need this direcrion so badly. Thankyou God
❤
Wise and radiant
I have 12 tattoos and wish I had never gotten any! I forgive myself, and in heaven, I'll be given a new body without them ❤ You're right though, it shows growth!
Very wise discernment. I like how Paul says it in 1 Cor 6:12 All things are permitted for me, but not all things are of benefit. All things are permitted for me, but I will not be mastered by anything.
Absolutely wonderful

I found out also about body building! that's a very tricky thing for Christian men! is it for health? is it for working in your, or your job call's for it? like a cop, or fireman, etc. or is it to be professional body builder reasons? or is it to show off your body to the opposite sex's? pray for Christian men and women, who like to be in a fit body and in sports, or just want to work out?
@@jrx2662 all comes down to motive. We must pray for the Lord to test our motives and reveal it to us bc we often lie to ourselves 🙃
I have been seeking God a lot over the last 4 years, recently I started exercising, lifting weights because my lifestyle of prayer had lead me to lose a lot of weight and muscle mass which made me feel quite insecure about my appearance. This last week I was struggling a lot in prayer and unable to draw near to God, I came out of prayer and lay down in bed and was telling my frustrations to the Lord about why I was unable to pray. He showed me that my body had become an idol and how my own vanity had become an issue for me that was creating a barrier between us. Since then I stopped working out and have grown much closer to Him. This issue is always about the heart, there can be nothing in the heart that comes between you and God, as even the slightest hint of idolatry divides the heart and makes it impossible to seek Him with our whole heart. Working out occasionally for fitness I don’t believe is an issue an I may in the future do a little bit of exercise to simply stay fit, but when it gets to the point of vanity it becomes sin, and even idolatry as it did with me.
@@EaglesNest1986 that's a real nice testimony, I'm glad that you came out and said that! it's important that others read what you said! because you can forget to Worship The Lord Jesus Christ! and worship your self! it's not easy to do good, but end up doing wrong, I found my self making excuses, to build up my body for my reason! it's always me that has the reason why I should build up my body! I had never asked the Lord for a reason why I should work out! but now I did! and the thought I got was for health reason! maybe ask The Lord Jesus, for a reason why you should work out? and please let me know what came into mind? keep the Faith! Jesus saves!
Totally agree 100%. I have two large tattoos but coverups. My new tattoo of a large wing on one arm and shoulder and armor on the other. However, if I had no tattoos, I would have preferred to have none. It's an even more expensive endeavor if you cover that sucker up like I'm in the process on one arm and shoulder.
Thank you. We will never be fully free of temporal desire until we are with Christ. That is not a license to sin but an encouragement to resist our pridefull desires and idolotry. The less we think of our pridefull selves the closer we come to God.
There is no end to these kind of discussions because one way or another they are all about self!
I had tattoos before I became a Christian also but the Bible is against it and so am I.
Leviticus 19:28, which says, "You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead, or incise any marks on yourselves🙏
Thank you and bless you

Hello again Sarah! I’m 51 and have never had tattoos, but I’m always curious about other’s and quite often ask them what they mean. I know that you’ve been saved, but has anyone in your church or Christian community still given you a hard time about your tattoos and make suggestions about you covering them up? I personally don’t see the big deal, but I know that many people of faith often judge a book by its cover. I am struggling to come back to God after failing far away 36 years ago. I never really cared for church or Christian podcasts, but you just make me feel comfortable and you’re so down to earth!!! You’re actually more like Jesus than a clean cut preacher in the pulpit! Your tattoos help tell your story!!! Sending hugs!!!
That was super kind of you. Some of the old school crowd has given judgey vibes here and there but I find tattoos to be so common people are more intrigued than judgmental. Yea they definitely do tell a story! And my very last one was “Yeshua” , I wanted the name of my savior to be the last and final tattoo I ever received after all the worldly tattoos I had gotten.
Great Video, Sarah! The crucified flesh, and growing in grace. Well said my sister. Thanks for sharing
I just came across this channel. Isaiah 9 and 10 is priceless!
Hi Sarah
Love your testimony. I am a man who is on the journey…my tattoos were much less about adornment and much more about being really meaningful moments to me, they represented different moments and events in my life that I believe shaped and formed my character, my story I guess.
The day I broke and repented and surrendered to Him without condition or reservation, was the day my Tattoos and their stories ended…the chapter those wrote in my human timeline was finished, and a new chapter and timeline began, the one He writes for me, rather than the one I wrote for myself.
Yes I still wrestle with things, I still am tested and tempted, but the direction of my choices, and life has flipped upside down. Everything the world brings me no longer is a trap to confine me, but rather an opportunity to overcome and develop me, to refine me, to shape me into what He asks of me…He never said it would be easy, He never said that we would be freed of pain or persecution, however He does promise that His inner peace is always with us no matter what the storm….for He is the Prince of Peace.
Thank you Sarah for your testimony, you inspire many….He lives in you and it shows.

So the title is called “Godliness vs Legalism” & the UA-cam channel is called “Theocast.” I found it very helpful for me to learn how to be godly without turning into a pharisee (as you mentioned towards the end of your video). I don’t agree with everything John & Justin teach but they are very good at explaining how we can & should be godly people without allowing that godliness to puff us up & us weaponizing it.

The Catholic Church was not started until at least 300 A D. Jesus never said anything about following a church or denomination, He said repent and follow Me.
and in obedience to God's Holy Word!
Thank you...excellent way of explaining it. We are much more beautiful in our natural state as God made us than when we mess with it. Perfection.
Impressive testimony!
As an artist, I really desired tattoos when I was much younger, but by the time I was old enough to get them something told me not to. It's like I have this instinctive feeling not to mark my body. I see nothing wrong with them. However, as you mentioned, we are already perfect, and everything else is an aesthetic. You speak a lot of truth in this video in general. Remembering God is like being at the summit of a mountain.

Well Sarah, this was a beautifully said message. You are a truly born again women who has her priorities set correctly. Glad your on UA-cam. I was in your position when i first got saved, but I got destroyed by an endless barrge of lies and confusion. If I knew somebody with your strength in the Lord, maybe things would have rurned out different for me. I have been trying ro get back into the graces of the Lord for decades and ti no avail. I probably forfeited my salvation around 3 years after salvation. I say thia to tell you to stay on this road your on and Gid will stay with you. Salvation us a gift and if i am reading the bible correctly, the gift can be recinded. To this day, He doesn't take me back. When I watched your video, I saw that I was where you are at now, but I am no longer. So do like you said in this video, and you will have a glorious welcome into His kingdom on that day. Keep posting.
