Bible Question:
i am wanting to get me a tattoo to show my faith in God, and i have read leviticus 19:28, " 'Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD." was just wondering if i could still get one or not |
Bible Answer: Dear ckyconan, You do not need a tatoo to show your faith in God. (2 Cor. 5:7) The decision is yours to make and it is strictly a personal one. It is good that you seek advice, but the purpose of this Forum is bible study, not advice giving. So, I would recommend that you seek a Pastor or other close- hopefully mature- Christian(s) for advice. I might ask, would the tatoo bring glory to God? Depending on your age, would be glad you still have in 15 to 20 years? Remember: "Listen to counsel and accept discipline, That you may be wise the rest of your days." [Prov. 19:20) Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
