Just out of interest I go to a christian school and got suspended because I wore a piercing on my eyebrow to school. I had a note for it yet I got a lecture and they told me that we have to follow God and go down the right path and all this crap and having a piercing apparently isn't the right thing. Its not like it says anywhere in the bible that piercings are a sin but I get suspended for having one and its not right according to God. What do you think is there a certain way I have to dress to be a christian or something?

This is true. Apparently jesus had his palms pierced, dirty hypocrits! Now before everyone says I'm going to hell, I would just like to remind you that there is no such thing as hell. No, there is no such thing as a red goat looking guy with horns and a pitchfork. Seriously, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have more credibility.

You don't really have grounds for a complaint here and you can't judge all Christian people based on a Christian school.
You are at a CHRISTIAN school where people spend good money to keep their children "pure." (HEE HEE, I used to work with kids in trouble many went to Christian schools). You are in their world so you have to play by their rules.
Now in the general public, no one has a right to force their beliefs on anyone. I am a Christian and do not believe you have to dres a certain way or that your piercing makes you a non-Christian. They may be going off "Your body is God's temple." Of course, do they allow pierced ears? I don't get it and don't think it matters.
You however most likely knew that the piercing was against the dress code (which even public schools have) and chose to do it any way.
If you didn't now you do, either take it out or go to a new school. I am a church going devout Christian who has never considered a Christian school...of course I live in a good area.

they have the legal right to ban certain things from their school-and the bible does mention piercings and tattoos actually, something about marking yourself for the dead? I cant remember but their refering to ancient pagan practices. It is judgmental and of course well all know it's do as i say not as i do (judge not lest ye be judged) with christians. either switch to a different-public-school or take out the piercing. plenty of christian bands have piercings and tattoos...ya know christian punk lol

If you went to a Christian school I'm sure there were dress codes set forth before the school year started.
Growing up means fitting in (which does not always mean conformity) and understanding if you choose to stick out you also choose to accept the consequences of that action.

when you go to a school there are rules and regulations the students must follow as do the teachers. just like in the world each society has certain rules, laws, regulations and mores which must be followed or the ones not conforming will be considered dievant

No,there is no certain dress to show that you are a christian.Not the dress,custom or icons makes one christian.Only the belief.When we come to know the TRUTH we will not follow others to get attraction towards us.We will not do the unnecessary things which provoke or giving temptations.If a person's talk,response,dress or activities are not leading others to christ how we can call a person as a christian.

The bible is the e book that we base our faith on. that's rather the only e book of the Christian faith it incredibly is obtainable. Now, granted, i do no longer think that's appropriate, yet for now, until God says otherwise or produces something else, it incredibly is all I even have. As I mentioned, i do no longer think of that's appropriate. i think of that the revelation of God is acceptable purely in Christ. while i'm asked something approximately my faith, then i'm able to purely decrease back up why i think of one way or yet another by the e book that I have been given it from. even with the undeniable fact that somebody would possibly no longer believe me, it incredibly is the place i'm getting it from so i visit apply that as an answer. besides the indisputable fact that, that's not my purely thank you to respond to something. I do supply my comments and that i supply why i think of approximately issues that could or might in no way be in scripture (issues approximately coaching creationism at school or evolution. issues are prayer in faculties. coaching intercourse educationin lecture rooms. those are not present in scripture, yet i visit weigh the aspects and are available up with my very very own ideas appropriate to the undertaking) i do no longer anticipate or assume all and sundry to have a Bible, yet contained in the united states, maximum folk of families do have one. i comprehend pagans that have a Bible because of the fact they have been raised as a Christian and nonetheless take place to have their Bibles from early existence. additionally, there are loose variants on line, so technically, all and sundry at right here can get to a minimum of one because of the fact they are on line.

Rules are there for a reason. And the Bible says not to get piercings.

No, and when you get older you will understand that life doesn't always make sense.
Just take the piercing out, and finish your studies.
Then go on to pierce every dangling bit on your body that will support the weight, show up at church and SMILE.

If you want to wear piercings, and do what you want and not follow rules, you should transfer to a public school.
