QUOTE="BlessedCreator, post: 730907, member: 8647"]God told the Israelites not to make the markings in their flesh because it would disfigure their bodies which were made in Hus own image also it was something gentiles did. God's people are to be holy and separate from the heathen world.
Both of these reasons to not get a tattoo or mark your flesh in other ways (scars/burnings etc.) are still valid today and how much more should this commandment stand being that we Christian have the Holy Ghost residing in us (if we obey God He is in us).
