TATTOO

Most often than not, these people do not realize that in partaking of this to tattooing can open the door to wrong and polluted influences in their lives. Just as evil videos, immoral rock music albums, wicked internet games and violent movies are displaying evil trends in order to destroy our youth. Satanic tattoos, skin heads and other occult rites are opening many of our children to demonization. OUR BODIES ARE A TEMPLE In Gen 1:31…………. After the Lord created man and woman, He placed them in the garden of Eden along with other creations; He pronounced that the way He created them was good. He desires that our bodies be a reflection of His own beauty. When people tattoo their bodies they are tampering with what the Lord said was very good the way He made it. It is unnatural is against God’s will for man and woman to mark their bodies. Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit and are admonished not to defile them. A tattoo on one’s body is like graffiti on the wall, and does not glorify God. 1 Cor 6:19-20……………….. We need to come to ourselves and fathom what is it that makes a man dissatisfied with the way God made him. Many people feel inadequate with the way they look so they seek ways that will cause them to feel better about themselves or cause others to accept them. This is not wrong when it comes to having good grooming habits, but we need to understand true beauty comes from within, not from what we wear or how we look. Men are always ensnared with in vanity, rejection, fear, pride and even racial discrimination, when emphasis is put on the outward appearance. The beauty of coming to God is that He would deliver us from the outward things we need to feel good about ourselves, because when we are in sin, we do not feel worthy or acceptable, but through Christ we are. WHOSE IMAGE ARE YOU? If we the image of God, and operate in the will and purpose of God for our lives, to be who He made us to be without creating a different image. It is a known fact that many people are consumed with trying to be different or become acceptable not only by getting a tattoo but by other things as well. So many people argue and believe that since they have the name of Christ, the sign of the cross or some Biblical word or sign tattooed on their body they can witness by the tattoo to others. They argue further that since they are living right, they will end up in heaven. However, God is more concerned about we live our lives than by displaying a religious mark on our bodies.
