It's in GENESIS 1:28
And the lord blessed them and said ''be ye fruitful and multiply,and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds and every other thing that moves upon earth''

Where i come from we don't multiply by looking at each others face. . . undecided

There you go, 1 Corinthian 7: 8 - 9.


1 Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good for a man not to marry.[a] 2But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband. 3The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4The wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband's body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. 5Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 6I say this as a concession, not as a command. 7I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.

[size=18pt]8 Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am. 9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.[/size]

10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. 11But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.

It's like you misunderstood what I wrote. Read it again for more insight into the ways of God.
Thanks.
Re: Earring-wear Bishop - Td Jakes by Tudor6(f): 11:07pm On Jun 26, 2009
I've read it. . .and the ways of god dont look any clearer
You seriously can't expect me to see whats not there,can you?
Re: Earring-wear Bishop - Td Jakes by Generica(m): 11:38pm On Jun 26, 2009
If I may ask, on what side are you on?
I only wrote to thoroughly establish the fact that God has shown us what is right and what isn't. Any mistake or error stems from man's inability to walk in the ways of God. We don't establish the errors of men in the Bible as Truths to be admired and followed.

Generica I'm on the side of clarity and truth.
Your attempt to show how to 'walk in the ways of god' is quite hypocritical and self contradictory. cool

The extent these wannabe children of the mythical abraham will go to defend the ridiculous stories in their "holy" book of lalala tales is amazing. Abraham married his sister and some goons here is saying that it is not incest . Just like davidylan said that killing the parents and siblings of virgin girls and forcefully marrying them against their will is not rape because they were allowed to mourn their parents for some weeks. How a girl will be happy marrying a man that killed all her family members for no reason at all is what is completely beyond me. How some wannabe descendants of the mythical the abraham will go to the extent of saying that marrying your own sister is not incest is completely beyond me. Abraham married his sister and they had sex. Is that not incest backslider?

Well, whatever you may think and write doesn't move me. Afterall, everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion. It's quite unfortunate that we are losing grip of ultimate reality and it may be too late to realise that. Human existence is not for unnecessary debates and trifling with eternal wellbeing. It's too short for any of those.
We have a case at hand, why not continue the discussion and seek solution to the apparent self-deceit that enemies of Christ have brought in to destroy the perfect will of God?

@tudor and Huxley2

Still no where is it written that Getting married is Equals to sex.

Yes the act is one that is done in marriage but no where does it say that Marriage is all about having sex.

I am liking this style of ARGUMENT THAT PILGRIM1 USES grin

Who has said marriage is all about sex?

If earrings is a sign of the END TIMES then it's been the end times for like 5000 years!
I'm a Christian but some of what is written here by other Christians is embarrassing.

earrings and noserings:

AS A MATTER OF CULTURE:

Ears
"Ear piercing has existed continuously since ancient times, including throughout the twentieth century in the Western world. However, in North America, Europe, and Australasia, ear piercing was relatively rare from the 1920s until the 1960s. At that time, it regained popularity among westernized women. It was gradually adopted by men in the hippie, gay, emo, and thugs subcultures, until ever-widening appropriation attenuated its subcultural associations altogether. Today, single and multiple piercing of either or both ears is common among Western women and somewhat common among men."

Nose piercing
In Book of Genesis of the Bible 24:22, Abraham's servant gave golden nose-jewels of half a shekel weight and ten bracelets to Rebekah, wife of his son Isaac (the Hebrew word appearing in this passage, which is often mistranslated as "earring", also means "nose ring"; more likely given the cultural customs involved). Nose piercing has been common among Middle Eastern nomadic tribes from Biblical times, and migrated to India in the 16th Century AD[5]. It is customary for Indian women of childbearing age to wear a nose stud, usually in the left nostril, due to the nostril's association with the female reproductive organs in Ayurvedic medicine.

Many Native American and Alaskan tribes practiced septum piercing as a mark of male status; for example, this is where the Nez Perce tribe derived its name. The practice is also common among the warriors of Asian and Pacific tribes, as a nose bone gives the face a fierce appearance. The Aztecs and Incas wore gold septum rings for adornment, with the practice continued to this day by the Cuna Indians of Panama. As a different form of beauty modification, Australian aboriginals pierced the septum with a long stick in order to flatten the nose. Finally, the Bundi tribe of Papua New Guinea pierce the septum as a male coming-of-age ritual. The only place in world history where the septum piercing is more common among women than men is in the Himalayan area of northern India, Tibet, and Bhutan. Women in these regions often also have nostril piercings performed on them as girls, with the septum being pierced during marriage to signify the man's ownership of his bride.


AS A MATTER OF SCRIPTURE (referencing the above cited scripture) AND CULTURE:
REF:
Gen 24:22-24
"So it was, when the camels had finished drinking, that the man took a golden nose ring weighing half a shekel, and two bracelets for her wrists weighing ten shekels of gold, 23 and said, "Whose daughter are you? Tell me, please, is there room in your father's house for us to lodge?" So she said to him, "I am the daughter of Bethuel, Milcah's son, whom she bore to Nahor."
(NKJV)

NOTE: the King James version of the Bible mistranslates to "earring" or "jewel" (possibly due to 17th century European politics and/or etiquette, as is the case with many mistranslated passages in that version)

the Hebrew word, is: nexem (neh'-zem); from an unused root of uncertain meaning; a nose-ring:

Spiritual traders full in the house of God decieving the spiritually blind ignorant children of God while humanbeings following them are under heavy bondage and spiritual attacks and dont have peace and cannot sleep at night which is the commonest thing JESUSCHRIST promised and while still listening to airplane thirsty pastors&prophets and the worste is that the commonest thing JESUSCHRIST PROMISED WHICH IS PEACE is not made available to followers and they cant sleep at night,there is no peace?what a calamity and instead they have refused to yield unto the call that kingdom of God of justice has come,the light has come,the mantle and judgement has come upon the earth .we have spoken again to the whole world and who has ear let him hear what the spirits are saying and thats why we said Era of please be bornagain and altar call and weepng and sufering people in CHURCHES and giving them fastng and night vigil are over.rather the era now is give them the LIGHT and POWER to EMPOWER them and let them SEE and prophesy to themselves and be above all kinds or evil no matter the evil,that is the CHRIST authority of real JESUSCHRIST to his real followers
