Pro and against arguments
And that’s a conquering power over fear and old ruts. GOD wants mature dynamic individuals that fear him to fellowship with, not people cowering in fear from some rigid set of laws. Note: fear of GOD is totally different from cowering in fear. Some Christians will claim that drinking any amount of alcohol is sinful, but the medical community is saying that 2-3 drinks a day is good for the heart. Drink responsibly.
So, for those that have repressed getting a tattoo because of family or religious upbringing, just do it. If it’s not for you, fine--but don’t ruin it for the others.
Tattooing in no way marks who’s saved and who’s not. If you’ve seen the trilogy “A Distant Thunder,” the Mark of the Beast was tattooed on your right hand or forehead.
The tattoo was 666 in binary ‘6’s (i.e. 1 0 11 0 11 0 1 Sort of like a UPC code), but this doesn’t mean that every tattoo is a Mark of the Beast.
People have stated that the credit card and the computer were tools of the Devil. So what? Everybody depends on both today, even if the Anti-Christ is to use the computer to control the population, it doesn’t mean that if you use a computer, you’re a follower of the Devil.
I believe that religion, when improperly used, is a dangerous thing. Christianity has wasted a lot of valuable time trying to influence people in believing that unimportant things are evil instead of spreading the word of GOD. Christianity (or those prideful, arrogant, self righteous leaders) has looked down on tattooing far too long.
