In this video we will answer that question and look at 5 Biblical points to consider before getting a tattoo.
In this video we will answer that question and go over 5 Biblical points to consider regarding tattoos.
Reason # 1 â€¦ Point # 1 - Godâ€™s law forbids tattoos. Godâ€™s word...
When God made a covenant with the nation of Israel, He gave them His commandments and laws.
By following these laws, His people would serve as an example nation to the rest of the world (Deut. 4:5-6).
One of the laws God commanded was, "You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: I am the LORD."
The practice of tattooing, or imprinting marks on the body, was something the heathen and pagan nations around Israel were doing. But God clearly forbade His people from adopting any such custom.
But God clearly commanded His people to NOT follow these customs.
It is important to remember that God's laws determine what is sin, and what is not sin (1 John 3:4). His laws distinguish the clean from the unclean, and the holy, from profane (Lev. 10:10).
Therefore, God declared tattooing an unholy sinful practice that His people should avoid.
And even though this law was given to the ancient nation of Israel under the Old covenant, it reveals Godâ€™s perspective on the matter. And God makes clear that He does not change based on the cultural shifts of the times (Malachi 3:6, Heb. 13:8).
Also, God clearly condemns those who attempt to worship Him in any way with images or idols (Ex. 20:4-6; Deut. 5:8-10; 4:15-18, 23) [This comment seems out of place]
Also, God clearly condemns the practice of worshiping Him through images or idols.
