This week on Ask the Pastor, Pastor J.D. answers “Should Followers of Jesus Get Plastic Surgery?”
A glimpse inside this episode:
There are many the nuances for Christians around plastic surgery, enhancing beauty, the cultural pressures surrounding appearance, and the importance of focusing on inner beauty and heart posture. While cosmetic enhancements are not inherently wrong, they should not become idols that dictate self-worth or decision-making.
- The question of cosmetic surgery is nuanced and complex.
- Enhancing beauty is not inherently wrong; it’s about the heart behind it.
- Cultural pressures can lead to unhealthy decisions regarding appearance.
- The Bible encourages focusing on inner beauty rather than outward adornment.
- Idols related to beauty can lead to poor decision-making.
- Aging is a natural process that should be embraced, not fought against.
- Self-image should be rooted in God’s love, not physical appearance.
- It’s important to ask oneself if beauty and youth are idols.
- The inward person can be renewed even as the outward person deteriorates.
- Heart posture is crucial in making decisions about cosmetic enhancements.
