Well, I am once again battling my wife and daughter. It always seems as if I am just a mean ole bully preaching to my family on what is wrong and what is right; what is worldly and what is acceptable.
My daughter turns 15 soon and is begging to get her belly button pierced. To me red flags automatically come up and I just see this as being way too unacceptable for a Christian. My wife sees no problem with it either.
They insist that nobody else will ever see it and that it is just something she wants real bad. It is not a fashion statement or mocking anything or anyone from Hollywood.
Then they always throw out that the things I like are just as wordly such as sports, going to games, etc... And I guess it is hard to argue that fact when sports always has sex, alcohol, cursing involved.
Anyway, from a Biblical standpoint what is right in this situation?
And the verses with worldy in it keep in mind that you can nearly throw everything into the equation.
Thanks.
