CHRISTIAN AND TATTOO



Tattoo is a form of body modification. It can also be said to be a process by which pigment(ink) is permanently implanted under the skin. Tattoo is now a subject matter,whether it is right for Christian to have tattoo. Many have said that we are not under the law,that a christian can have tattoo. What does the bible really say about tattoo. The thing is the bible mentioned "tattoo" once and it was in Leviticus 19:28. God warn against making any cut on the body for the dead for put any tattoo mark on yourself. When you look critically at that scripture Leviticus 19:26 "Do not eat meat that has not been drained of its blood".and in verse 27 "Do not trim the hair in your temple or trim your beards. Definitely Christians eat non-kosher meat and get haircuts without participating in any idol worshiping. So if Christian does this and they are not sin,why then should tattoo which is in verse 28 of the same chapter be the subject matter. This controversy issue should be dealt with by using the scripture in Roman 14:12-23.
The question should not longer be whether to tattoo or not, The question you ought to ask yourself are "what are mine motive tattooing?, Am i using it to draw attention to God or Myself? Will my tattoo cause someone who is weak in faith to stumble? When all these questions and several conscience checking question come across  your mind then you will then know better if it is right to have a tattoo.
So is the tattoo on your skin glorifying God or pulling your brother to sin.
