CynFields: Leviticus 19:28 "You shall not make any cuts in your body for the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the LORD. That seems to be fairly clear, but as always read the scripture in the context of the passage. That would be too long to post all here. Blessings, Beensetfree |

I like to think 1 Cor 6 is also useful: 19Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body. I know Paul is specifically addressing sexual immorality here but personnaly I think it is applicable also with regard to tattoos. We as christians are taught not to bring any undue attention to ourselves. For example: the discussion throughout the Bible about women's modesty. It just seems to go against the general tenor of the Bible to do such unusual acts as decorate the human body with this kind of ink which is almost impossible to remove. I'll make one more statement and then hush. Before you go to such lengths to decorate your body, I would recommend your finding other christians with maturity (maybe 50 or so) who has done this and ask them: Do they regret it? My son does. Just a suggestion and God bless. |

Rowdy I agree! It is also a matter of respect! Since our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit we should respect Him enough not put graffiti on His temple. EdB |
