--Niki Taylor – American Model Born 1975

People who don't like me talk about it as though I'm trash because I have tattoos. I find that insane because it's 2008, not the 1950s. Tattoos aren't limited to sailors. It's a form of art I find beautiful. I love it.

Body Tattoos and the Bible

Below are the main biblical reasons against tattoos.

We are told not to mark or tattoo ourseleves. Leviticus 19:28 “Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.” At the time of the writing of this passage of Scripture, many heathen cultures practiced self- mutilation as a sign of mourning for the dead. Many heathen cultures also marked or “tattooed” their bodies for various reasons.

Man is made in the image of God. Genesis 1:26 “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them”. God created man in His own image. To receive a tattoo is to tell your Creator that you need to redecorate His work, because you did think it was good enough!

The Bible tells us that we are to take care of our body because it is the place, for the Christian, where the Holy Spirit resides. 1 Cor. 6:19-20 “What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.”

We that are saved have been bought with a price, and that price was the precious blood of Jesus Christ! This verse states, that “we are not our own”, i.e. we belong to the one that bought us. Because of this we are to think, act, dress, look, and even speak to glorify God! When a person tattoos their body, they are aliening themselves with the heathen cultures of the world, and not with the one that bought them. They are publicly advertising their defiance against God’s Word and His Authority. By making this public declaration, they are declaring that neither God nor the Holy Spirit are in control, nor are they abiding within.5
