as for Tattoo's or no Tattoo's is a choice between you and God, as long as it is between you and God and not for yourself.

Isaiah 44:5-6

 5"This one will say, 'I am the LORD'S; And that one will call on the name of Jacob; And another will write on his hand, 'Belonging to the LORD,' And will name Israel's name with honor. 6"Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: 'I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me.

on weather Jesus would or could have a tattoo?

Revelation 19:16

16And He has a name written on His robe and on His thigh: King of kings and Lord of lords.

 

I say these things not because I justify my thoughts, but to show God is true and Holy and what is God's is God's what is of this world is of this world. I personally have a Tattoo that proclaims my love for my Savior Jesus Christ.

 

so in closing, what is permissible for one may not be permissible for another. God calls us unto Glory and proclaim his name in many different ways. only thing he asks is for our hearts to be open to his will and calling. if God has not called you to something, turn and run from it.

Whatever you do, do unto the glory of God, and God alone!

Even if one does not care about maring the beautiful body God gave, one should realize the skin is the largest organ we have and the tattoo inks are not vegetable based but car paint, printers' ink or any other ink that is cheap. This ink toxin can travel to the liver, kidney etc. causing untold health issues in years to come and the needles may not be sterile causing hepatitis.

Now that's all a good reason to stay away.

In addition Jews were told not to mark their bodies as the pagans did. Nor should they or we cut ourselves as the pagans did. All perfect reasons for me not to do it.

Blessings Lambsy

   Thats exactly what I was saying.....

Quote

Blessings....

    Thousands of years ago a very special people were hand picked by God & H e Called then His Chosen ones.....The Hebrew people were given the very Word of God with very specific instruction ,these instructions were a list of do's & do-nots......they were so full of WISDOM far beyond human comprehension,only recently have men realized that the dietary laws for humans described in these Holy Scriptures are perfect  to keep ones body healthy & functioning as best as it possibly can in every way........God did not give man a set of daily instruction without very good Reason,for our best interests,because He Loves His children......

   We have seen many replies here that are wonderful,well thought out answers.....covering many reasons why we should not defile the Temple of God,we understand the pagan origins of this practice,we understand that  it was a "do not".......& now let us consider Gods Infinite Wisdom that once again,only recently have men realized that this method of "decorating" ones body has had terrible consequences,like Hepatitis C for one,tattoos having been one of the ways to contract the disease......God Knew these things before the thought ever entered mans mind......it just Amazes me how our Loving Father never leaves any stone unturned in our Daily Life Instruction Book...............His Word,to God be the Glory!                                                           With love-inChrist,Kwik

I don't think I could put it better than @No124get1952 had at the top of this discussion....
I had tattoos before giving my life to Christ....
none since then....

but have considered it....

Mainly to get more God glorying art over some of my less reverent ones....
but just haven't done it yet....

The bottom line I believe is that as long as you are doing it to glorify Jesus....
I can't image Christ having a problem with it....

If you have Christians around you that would be offended....
I would not show it to them....
as it could cause them....
to stumble....

Even Jesus

“Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb?
Even these may forget, yet I will not forget you.

Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;
your walls are continually before me.
Isaiah 49:15-16 (
English Standard Version)

Be Blessed Beloved Of The KING

The LORD bless thee, and keep thee:
The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.



And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them. Numbers 6:24-27 (King James Bible)

Love, Your Brother Joe

I would say actions speak louder than tattoos.  :D

I personally would not get a tattoo. But I'm not opposed to them as a general rule. 

I checked out that link  some I liked and some I thought were border line tasteless and some I thought were inaproperate. 

I do like this one though. (Found on the link in post #2)

I accept the Bible teaching against tattoos and personally strongly object to this one and any like it. This one in particular shows Jesus our Lord only crucified...He completed His sacrifice on the cross and now sits at His/our Father's right hand......alive not just crucified.

We serve a risen not crucified Lord.....

There Is One "Tattoo" I Desire

Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. Revelation 3:12

And I've Been Assured

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts. Jeremiah 15:16

I'll Carry It

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Romans 8:15-18

Forever And Ever Amen~!

And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. Revelation 22:3-4

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
