Sadly to many young women have tattoos..it grieves me.

I can understand if someone got tattooed before they came to Christ but to get it after is odd. Can you do a video on how Christians shouldn't celebrate Halloween. So many of the churches around are doing "trunk or treat" or "harvest festivals" so they can look like the world. It's really sad. John Macarthur answered a question in his congregation about it.

I would love for a person to even think of graffiti on the western wall in Jerusalem, I believe it would profane the outer wall of the temple, but now God has made His temple our body. Some people believe they can profane that is very strange.

All of my tattoos are Christian themed.
Probably most of my evangelism comes from people asking about them.

The Bible says not to cut your is what a tattoo is. Repeated cutting of the flesh and adding ink.

So we need a celebrity pastor to answer this?

HEY SO YOU CANNOT COUNT OUT SOME PEOPLE WHO THE MOST HIGH HAS CALLED TO SERVE HIM, WHERE DO YOU THINK HE GOES TO GET HIS FOLLOWERS TO THE MOST UNDESIRED PLACES THAT YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE THEY HAVE AN ANOINTING ON THEM, THAT'S HOW HE GETS HIS GLORY TURNING A BAD INTO A GOOD.

How bodies will turn to dust with or without tattooes! Why does it matter?

[jameshyde]

We are to draw attention to Christ and Not! ourselves. Tattoos draw attention away from Christ and His Nature. The Purity of the Holy Spirit is to be exalted not tainted! with secular art form. I am sixty years old and have NEVER! followed anybody - Thankfully! - but the Truth of God’s Word.

Isn't everything reflective of the motive and intent of the heart! This is totally marring the body of God's creation!

[rodneynorwell]

It seems to me putting graffiti, so to speak, on my body as a Christian and my body in scripture is termed a temple of the Holy Spirit seems not Christ like but a desecration of the temple!

Funny how you are being negative and attacking and labeling people, then turn around and play a Godly man's perspective on the subject, which happens to be opposed to your approach. Maybe you better focus on getting the tree out of your eye before sticking your fingers in someone else's eye. You put your hypocrisy on display
