Seriously?Question for you believers....aren't tattoos a sin?
Not in my opinion..I have severalQuestion for you believers....aren't tattoos a sin?
Not at all. I personally like questions and discussions on this stuffI'm not a believer so I really don't know. Seems like I heard/read the body is a temple or not supposed to desecrate the flesh. Like many things. I guess it is how you interpret the bible.
BTW
I'm not trying to stir the pot. If you are offended by the quÄstion, please ignore.
It's Old Testament, Leviticus 19:28 "You shall not make any gashes in your flesh for the dead or tattoo any marks upon you" . Some Christians still believe that even the New Testament verses on your body being a "Temple of the Lord" prohibit tattoo's.Question for you believers....aren't tattoos a sin?
Depends on who you ask. Some denominations of Christians that absolutely forbid it. Others not so much.Question for you believers....aren't tattoos a sin?
Nothing wrong with tattoo, I have about 10. None on the face or hands. I worked in a prison for 8 years and seen a lot of good and terrible tattoos. Never got my first one until 44.Not in my opinion..I have several
But that opens up a whole theological can of worms that would probably be best to leave closed
The verse above that says not to shave around the sides of your head or disfigure the edges of your beard. The verse above that says not to eat meat with blood still in it.

I had a client who was a dermatoligist who spent the majority of his time trying to remove tatoos. I think I'll pass on those.Nothing wrong with tattoo, I have about 10. None on the face or hands.

Itās more painful to remove them too. They literally burn the ink out of your skinGot a client who works

Yep, our Baptist pastor preached on it one Sunday and how it was a sin. We had been going to church there for years. My wife has tattoos. We never returned. Or to any other Baptist church for that matter.It's Old Testament, Leviticus 19:28 "You shall not make any gashes in your flesh for the dead or tattoo any marks upon you" .

No. Thatās one of the out of context, lost in translation of the times verses.Question for you believers....aren't tattoos a sin?
Read the post I just posted. Thatās a perfect example of the people preaching the Bible but not understanding the context. Modern tattooing isnāt the same as what tattooing was in the culture then.Yep, our Baptist pastor preached on it one Sunday and how it was a sin. We had been going to church there for years.

Wealthy people tend to have more temptation with greed etc and they also have more ability to give but donāt always live up to living in his image etc
-George MacdonaldāIt is as necessary for a poor man to give away, as for a rich man. Many poor men are more devoted worshipers of Mammon than some rich men.ā
Getting a tattoo and hiding it is no different than getting one on your hands or your face, right?
You hit the nail on the head. I was going to respond with the same answer.Seriously?
For the purposes of the current discussion (I.e., āin the eyes of Godā) I suppose it wouldnāt be any different.
But from a societal standpoint there is a huge difference. Unless you are a professional athlete or a rapper, face tattoos make it extremely hard for 99.9% of the population to find gainful employment. Same thing with the hands, to a lesser extent.
Letās hear what you believe????I'm not a believer so I really don't know. Seems like I heard/read the body is a temple or not supposed to desecrate the flesh. Like many things. I guess it is how you interpret the bible.

Leviticus surrounds Levitical or Mosaic Law. āTattooingā in that time was the art of self harming or creating an open wound, often to mourn a loss loved one, and then keeping the would open and preventing healing until you were no longer mourning. Essentially it was an outward presentation of inward pain
However not all preachers and members of the church know their biblical history and things take on new meanings.
āCamel through the eye of a needleā is another one that many people take as saying ārich ppl canāt go to heaven bc a camel canāt fit in the eye of the needleāā¦but there is historical context missing. Riders would dismount and Camels had to lay on their bellies and scoot through a lowered entry for many walled cities (one gate in particular in Jerusalem was named āthe eye of the needleā). It was a defense mechanism to prevent armies from invading bc they could only come through one at a time. It was much more difficult for a camel to pass than an open traditional gateā¦but not impossible. Wealthy people tend to have more temptation with greed etc and they also have more ability to give but donāt always live up to living in his image etc
I don't believe sufficient evidence exist to warrant belief in a god. I don't believe in sin, as I don't believe in your god. I don't need a god to be a good human. Thanks for asking.....Letās hear what you believe????
