I have also been seeing young men around lately

Unreal what people are doing to their bodies.
That's sin for you though...starts small and winds up

It's not gender specific. And yes, I found a picture of a small gauge vs a large gauge. I also stuck with one in the ear, vs the nostril or cheek.
Sin? Can you please show me a verse from the Bible that says not to gauge your ears? Or nostrils/cheeks?

You know good well that every sin is not spelled out in black and white or red in the Bible. Covers alot of things to be sure. God gave us sense and most of all the HolyGhost to "gauge" what we do in our lives.
Our bodies are the temple of this most precious Holyghost, so why
would I want to mutilate it in any way on purpose?

On one hand, I hear a lot of "read the Bible, if it's in there, do it/don't do it" and "The BIBLE says..." And then on this hand, you're telling me that the Bible doesn't spell out all sin so we just have to kind of know what's sin and what isn't. I hope your luck with guessing is better than mine, because mine sure isn't very good. I would hate to have to trust my luck to guess right whether or not something is sin.

I was gonna let this one go but I cant. Yes, sin is spelled out in black and white and red, I am sorry but just because you don't like something doesn't make it a sin.
and you ask why would you mutilate your body in any way on purpose? Do you eat food with MSG in it?? Do you know the internal damage that does? How about maybe a loofah to bath? Did you know that it scrubs off the top layer of skin? Yeah I know that's a bit nit picky but honestly, Whats the difference really?
Our work is SALVATION, not closet surfing, Our work is OUTREACH not casting out, Our work is about KINGDOM BUSINESS, not sticking our noses in every one else's business!!

I have ear gauges. They are at 9/16.

I have the Holy Spirit and my body is a temple of Him. That's why I abstain from sexual immorality, as the scripture was speaking about. I gauged my ears because I liked the look of it.

And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, (house of God) and dwell there: and make there an altar unto God, that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother. Gen 35:1 (KJV) Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and be clean, and change your garments: And let us arise, and go up to Bethel; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went. And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand, and all their earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem. Gen 35:2-4 (KJV And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us.... Ex 32:1 (KJV) And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me. And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron. And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. Ex 32:2-4 (KJV) Earring has a lot to do with false gods and devil worship. But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils 1 Cor 10:20 (KJV) Old School Holiness
