Flesh and Faith

A documentary I made about a Christian tattoo artist named Turbo who's art exemplifies his faith. The film shows the beginning and completion of a tattoo of archangel Michael fighting a demon.

Oops I meant edge of our beards, not temples.

Similarly, Moses is saying that they should be separate from the surrounding nations and not tattoo their bodies as an offering to the dead. The issue, along with all issues of the law is a matter of the heart. The Pharisee's practiced these things to a tee, but they did not the God and their hearts were evil.

Likewise, we can tattoo ourselves in good conscience provided we are doing it for the right reasons, to offer ourselves as a sacrifice to the Lord, bringing Him glory with our bodies.

First of I'm pretty sure that as Christians we're not concerned with rounding of hair on our head and marring the edge on our temples. So if we can't tattoo, then we better also have people watching those in barber shops very carefully to make sure they are not sinning.

Secondly, in the context to the verse, Moses is speaking to tattoo for the dead. Prior to in the paragraph it says, "You shall not interpret omens or tell fortunes."

Unfortunately arcangel, you've misinterpreted this passage. Remember that the Levitical Laws were for the Jews at that time and not all of them apply to us anymore, like many of the food laws for example. For example, do we adhere to the verse right prior to, in 27.

Here are both verses: "You shall not round off the hair on your temples or mar the edges of your beard. You shall not make any cuts on your body for the dead or tattoo yourselves: I am the Lord."

Jesus did set us Free from this world and we life in the spirit so our body's are a temple of God and with Christian tattoo's we show that just like you give your church building a nice picture its to show on our own that we love Jesus and we want the world to knowe Him!

@pitaman7 That's a cop-out if I ever heard one, you sanctimonious, self-righteous piece of shit. The only thing I hate more than Bible-followers, is the people who think that they have the Bible's blessing even though they can't follow a single rule in it. You suck.
