1 | Is marking or piercing our bodies wrong? | Lev 19:28 | Cecelia | 191349 | ||
Does it say in the Bible that we shouldn't mark our bodies or pierce them? My Mother says that it says that our earrings will be torn out of our ears and rings ripped off our toes. Can someone help me out with this one? |

2 | Is marking or piercing our bodies wrong? | Lev 19:28 | rabban | 191350 | ||
Hi Leviticus 19.28 does say, 'You shall not --- print any marks upon you.' But the main question is, why you want to do so? And the only answer must be either peer pressure or vanity. Either way it is a bad witness for Christ. The Scripture makes clear that to adorn ourselves for a vain purpose or ostentatiously is not to behave as a true Christian woman should (1 Timothy 2.9-10). Rather our lives should give our testimony for us by their wholesomeness and beauty of behaviour. To mark or pierce the body is to misuse what God has given us and to declare to the world that we are just like them and that we are no different. And we are supposed to be different. It really all depends on how dedicated to Christ you are and what kind of a witness you want to give. |
