28 Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD.
Old Testament stuff, whether it applies today, you make the call!.
Last time I checked, Jesus wasn't dead, so this prohibition doesn't apply.
God forbade the Jews from tattoos, because that was the custom of the idol worshipping surrounding countries. And it still is. Same with cutting your body for the dead( a sign of mourning).
God was very jealous of His nation, which He brought out of bondage from Egypt to give them the Promised Land.
Whether you get a tattoo or not depends on how you see yourself and who owns you.
Do you own you? Or does God own you because you have been purchased by the blood of Jesus Christ? Were you not bought with a price?
The answer to that question will guide you to the right decision.
Jesus didn’t forbid it or condone it.But why do something that God very clearly spoke AGAINST, because He considered it an insult to Him that His people would take on the custom of people doomed for destruction.
It clearly is within the power of the Holy Spirit to bring you to a decision that will honor God.
