Is it cool for Christians to get tattoos of crosses, etc?

Feb 28, 2011 by india lima foxtrot | Posted in Religion & Spirituality

I was just wondering. Leviticus says that it's not cool to get tattoos to remember the dead. So, if a Christian gets a cross tattoo (or similar ink), does that count as a tattoo to remember Jesus, who died?
Come on, don't dodge the question!

It's cool with me.
I think they're great
if they're done well.

Some of them look like they were done by a six year old.

Bit of trivia fer ya:

INLAND: Tattoos no longer taboo for Christians

18.05.12

 

Some tattooed Christians say their body art reminds them of what God has done for them and to practice what they preach. For example, Marcy Rossi has a heart on her arm that says “Just Love.”

In an email, the 30-year-old from Murrieta, who leads a creative arts ministry at Temecula’s Rancho Community Church, said she got the tattoo after feeling God tell her that love could solve her problems.

“So when I’m arguing with my husband I will see my arm reminding me to ‘Just Love,’” said Rossi, who got her tattoo at a Murrieta shop. “If I’m frustrated at work — ‘Just Love.’ Annoyed by someone in traffic — ‘Just Love.’”

Some believe tattoos and Christianity don’t mix.

“A Biblical attitude would suggest we ought to steer clear of things that call attention to parts of our body or purposely try to steer people to looking at us or looking at the tattoo,” said Pastor Bill Rench of Calvary Baptist Church in Temecula.
