some that are not so lovely and I have some

that hate the Gospel of Jesus Christ and, in

turn, they hate me. Three and a half years ago

when I did the funeral of Darlene's mother, at

the wake the night before — or back home they

call it “the viewing”; different places call it

different things — but at the wake or the

viewing, three people walked up to me in front

of a crowd and tried to start an argument over

body tattooing and body piercing. As far as I'm

concerned, you can do whatever you want, but

I'm telling you, biblically it's out of Hell — both

tattooing and body piercing. Now, I don't care

whether you're male or female; it's wrong and

it's ungodly. But, anyway, they wanted to start

an argument. I had never met these people

before, but they’re relatives. I just avoided it,

but I'm thinking, "I'll preach to you tomorrow."
