The popularity of tattoos,
especially among Christians is alarming. Demonstrating a biblical ignorance at
the very best and outright rebellion to the Bible at worst, Baptists,
fundamentalists are tattooing themselves and even pastors, are making excuses
for "tattoomania".
1. It is the graffiti of
the big city
But in this case it defaces
the property of God
2. It is the tagging of
modern gangs
But it is claiming as their
territory what God has built
3. It is identifying with
Satan
Who hates that man is
created in God's image and would love to see it marred
4. It is blatantly
unscriptural
Leviticus 19:28 KJV
Ye shall not make
any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the
LORD.
5. It is a precursor to
the mark of the beast
Revelation 13:16-17 KJV
And he causeth
all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in
their right hand, or in their foreheads:
And that no man
might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the
number of his name.
