 Hi Abel,

Good to hear of a Christian Skinhead Oi! band! Carry on tearing down those Christian stereotypes brother!

There is so much misunderstanding about what a Christian is. I wish more people would see that it is what is on the inside that makes you a Christian. People think that going to a religious service of some kind, doing 'good works' and wearing a suit, makes you a Christian. But in fact, some of the worst false prophets about today would fit that description. The same was so in Jesus' day, with the religious and moral looking pharisees.

Real Christians are those who have been born again, love the Lord Jesus, and are clean on the inside, depite what they look like on the outside.

We must really ask: Does God really care whether his followers look a certain way on the outside or not? As long as a person‘s appearance is not deliberately offensive it would appear that God cares little about our appearance (compare 1 Sam. 16:7; John 7:24). God’s real concern is with our inner heart condition, and having our sin dealt with by Him (Rom. 3:23; 6:23).
