     'You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: I am the LORD."

I'm guilty, relating to this verse.  I have a tattoo of my fraternity house on my ankle.  I didn't know at the time.  I choose to refer to 1 Corinthians 13:11 - the vanity of youth.  As far as cutting flesh for the dead, it was practiced in biblical times.
     Now you know, I didn't.  God doesn't want you to mark yourself in any way.  Tattoos have become very popular - the vanity of man.  I know many people do not know - shame on us.
A girl on Twitter posted that her first tattoo was gonna be a Bible verse. I replied to her and quoted this verse. Needless to say I didn't hear back from her. People don't know - if ignorant educate them. I wish someone would have educated me. Hopefully God will forgive me.  Tell God you love Him.

The LORD bless you and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.

Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Please read your Bible.
