doc on air: u cant understand the things of the spirit if you are not in the spirit.your last statement reveals u belong to satan.JESUS is calling you Really bro? My last statement in an informed and common sense assumption. Truth is that I am more likely related to those I mentioned than a Biblical character (who are usually depicted with white skin and blue eyes). So brother, what does the spirit say about the other prohibitions I listed? Say, the taboo of shaving for example. It is in Leviticus also. If you honestly believe that tattoos are forbidden, you should also agree that shaving is forbidden. This is coming from a brother who does not have any tattoo. As a matter of fact, dislike it. |

Kenistry: Dat law is not for Christians........but wht u tattooed on u body determines if u r for Christ or not. Christians only hv one law.... Love God and love ur neighbour as ur love urself. Any oda law is for pagans & co, remember d same leviticus says u shldn't cut ur beard, pr is it also a sin to cut it? Are you of the Believers LoveWorld. Denomination. @op * what about our great-grannies? They usually have one or more tattoos mostly names and all that(especially South-West) *what do you think of incisions? I mean okigbe,owo, shoot and bounce etc types. * I have come to understand that If I'm under grace and not law....although this is not an excuse to misbehave.... *Making heaven is not a choice, its only by the grace of election.....*s such I have stop worrying about heaven.... I live a fairly normal and modrate lifestyle and expect whatever happens. |

E don reach to dey slap all this people wey create yeye post here. U wan come dey condemn person wey draw tattoo but u get plenty things for your life wey you dey do wrong. Besides of all the hundreds of laws in the old testament na only that tattoo matter wey you wan use form holiness. Na you be God, christians are not under any of those damn laws, Jesus the son of God, no Jesus, who ia God said himself, that there is only one commandment, and that's to love your neighbour. All that really matters to God is that humans relate to Him and one another in faith and love. If you need teaching on righteousness which is of faith, then read the letters of Paul, till you do, you don't know SHyTe about righteousness. Dey there dey find who draw tattoo, you go soon see angels wey draw tattoo |

what will we say then of all our tribal marks? marks found amongst our people? Is circumciaion not a cut on the skin?Or have we sinned when we scribble down numbers on our palm?.The SPIRIT is everything,the flesh has no value.Sin is a breakdown in the relationship between God and man,as a result of an immoral act,for the commandment is to love God and neighbour.A mark in itself carries no value,the intention of the owner of the mark carries the reward or penalty of the mark ,for the heart is what is judged not the flesh.If the mark directs towards sinful actions/pleasures,it is the unfortunate expression of the bearer,and is best removed or covered, outside of that situation leave it to God to read the heart.The best situation is not to have one imho it can be unsightly at old age.The old commandments on bodymarks must have egyptian cults and paganism in mind. |

Millenia: It is Like a phlegm to see Christians Tattoo their Bodies, Mostly some Young girls and others who are in church choirs and who attend churches have tattoo on various places of their Bodies. Pls correct this....a lot of things are happening in "christiandom world"......it's either Christendom or christian world ....there's nothing like christiandom world |

toluene12:Yes! Jesus encouraged it by sayn we shld practice it without neglecting d other laws, dat it dosent make sense to keep one n ignore d others. If u want to keep one make sure u keep all. Wat today christians do is keep some n ignore others. |

doc on air: u cant understand the things of the spirit if you are not in the spirit.your last statement reveals u belong to satan.JESUS is calling you Wow you have designated yourself a judge over him. God is the only one allowed to judge. @OP; The old testament has a lot of commandments that we do not adhere to. Singling out a particular one because you adhere to it makes you a cheat. I have some biblical questions? Do you know that if you come in contact with a woman in her period, you have sinned and must cleanse yourself?(contact here isn't sexual but mere speaking or sitting on same place the woman sat) Do you know that the old testament preaches an eye for an eye while the new testament preaches otherwise? Do you know that the old testament preaches adulterous humans should be stoned while Jesus in the new testament preaches forgiveness? Do you know that the old testament supports divorce but the new testament doesn't except where adultery has been committed? Do you know that the old testament preached that Israelites were the chosen while the rest of humanity were the condemned but in the new testament Jesus preached that all are equal and chosen in the eyes of his father God? Do you know that each time you shave a hair on your body, make an incision, eat pork/reptiles, cut a finger nail or wear certain clothe materials you have sinned according to the old testament? Do you also know that each time you write in an exam that the male sperm fertilise the female ovary to make a baby you have sinned?(the bible makes us to understand that God gives babies, how God does that, the bible didn't say) Finally do you know that owning things like cars, phone, computer etc makes you a sinner? These are worldly things and the bible is very much against worldly things. You don't need to open the pages of a history that has been altered by men at different points called bible to know God's will: God gave us a conscience for that even the bible says so. 1 Like |

Never follow a man who always try to defend or find excuses for a short fall, he is done developing. Anything we see as judgment or accussing finger should be seen as a stop sign for self examination and appraisal. |
Re: The Bible Forbids Tattoos by lomprico(m): 5:53pm On Sep 15, 2013 |
Iruolycious: Tattooes aren't decent, true. But are christians bound by Lev. 19? No. If u must preach, u must preach d truth and explain to pple where decency comes in. The fact still remains that in as much as tattoos aren't decent, All Laws given thru Moses are no longer binding on christians.Really? Why then do u pay/collect tithe? |
Re: The Bible Forbids Tattoos by InvertedHammer: 5:57pm On Sep 15, 2013 |
I don't know the biblical aspect of tattoos, but most people that get those are suffering from identity crisis..."Gucci Mane did it, so it must be cool". "Rihanna did it, so it must be cool". There used to be cultural undertone in some tattoos. However, all these knuckleheads and chicken-heads are just getting it to latch unto something that is missing in their lives---fulfillment. So to identify with popular culture, they sheepishly feed off of whatever the media idolizes. ..Just as sagging has become a fad. |

Re: The Bible Forbids Tattoos by Nobody: 6:06pm On Sep 15, 2013 |
This reasons some people with tats have decided to stay out of the church and Christianity. I know at least 7 female friends that refused to go church because they are been judged by the tattoos on their body. There's so many things the bible forbids and we still do it anyway. If you start obeying and going through all the things or commandments in the bible, homie you ain't gonna be able to breath, I tell ya. I love my first united Methodist church! Come as you are honey |
Re: The Bible Forbids Tattoos by touchmeder: 6:07pm On Sep 15, 2013 |
I read it thank you. I also read Leviticus 19:28 as someone quoted it as well. It states ''28 “‘Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD. '' As someone who once toyed with a small tattoo (some months ago) i was curious so i decided to read the whole chapter because its good to read the whole lot so you get a proper understanding instead of running with one verse and failing to see the full picture. verse LEV 19: 19 “‘Keep my decrees. “‘Do not mate different kinds of animals. “‘Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed. IS THIS PRACTICABLE IN THIS WORLD TODAY. “‘Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material. OK TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT YOU ARE WEARING NOW? DOES THAT MAKE YOU A SINNER. WHAT IS THE LIKELIHOOD YOU ARE WEARING AN ATTIRE MADE OF ONLY ONE KIND OF MATERIAL. Verse 19 : 27 “‘Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS MOHAWK IS A SIN TOO. I dont know about you sha but if we were to follow most of these old testament scriptures for the priest of those days, we will never ever be able to please God 100%. I still dont intend to have that tatoo by the way so i aint making excuses here. I will do what sits well with my spirit and pleases my maker. You may think its not spiritual enough but lets see which of us will make heaven on the last day. |
