What are some Christians so opposed to Tattoos and Christians with INK. Does Leviticus 19 Verse 28 apply to modern day Christians or do some Christians take this verse out of context in order to oppress tattooed believers?
Perhaps God isn't as opposed to tattoos as some would think - Read Isaiah 49 verse 16.
"I have tattooed you on the palms of my hands..."

Don't Judge Wrongly
Many Christian's these days are outspokenly against tattooing and they will quote Leviticus 19:28 “You shall not make any cuts on your body for the dead or tattoo yourselves.”
This verse was an old covenant verse that also continues on (in verse 26, 27) to forbid eating any meat with blood in it and forbid cutting your hair! Clearly this was a command for a people at that time and the whole Bible needs to be read in context with the whole of scripture. God told Jonah to go to Nineveh but that doesn't necessarily mean that He wants us to go to Nineveh! What do you think about this topic? Comment Here>

As a Christian and some one who also likes to indulge in tattoos and body piercings myself, I find it hard to understand why so many people find it so offensive??
I will get a piercing or a tattoo as a reward or a symbol of which to remember a lost loved one by, almost a way to not only honour their memory but to keep them with me.
Thus far anything I have had done is not visable to anyone but me apart from my ears, simply because its a private thing for me. Having said that my next tattoo I am getting down my leg, and will be dedicated to my children and some special departed loved ones, my daughters have even helped with some of the design.
I hope when people ask me about this very special tattoo it will help me share and keep some memories alive :)
I hope if you are reading this and are a person who is offended by tattoos you may see them in a different light now Ive shared my reasons for getting them...
