I made it to ONEderland more than a week ago and I keep losing... I want to celebrate with a new tattoo. :smile: Wanna help me pick it out? Pretty easy criteria: must have a Christian meaning. I'm thinking about a script tat across the upper back or maybe tribal on my left shoulder. I might consider something on the chest if I can get it on the upper chest/top of shoulder area.

Anyone? Have at it!

    I don't know what the heck is going on with my IMG tags....I can't get it to work either way...maybe lowercase?

    You should get the line from Leviticus 19:28 which says, "Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print or tattoo any marks upon you: I am the Lord."

    Why did I have a feeling that verse was going to pop up here? :wink: I won't argue with you but please understand the context of this verse. Also, consider it as OT law as opposed to NT grace. I can pull out a laundry list of things the OT forbids, things you do every day and not think twice about.

    My left shoulder has an ambigram: JESUS right side up and SAVES upside down. People have asked me before what it says and lo and behold I have been able to share my faith with them. My right shoulder is the tribal lion (Tribe of Judah // Lion-lamb).

    Thank you for sharing this verse though. I very much appreciate it.

    I just couldn't pass up the opportunity, as an inkless atheist, to get your goat. lol

    I think tats are effing rad. So, go get 'em, cowboy! Or some other such random catchphrase. Also, ambigrams rule.

    I promise I won't get into the sheer lunacy and hypocrisy of the NT's hunt-and-peck interpretation here. :laugh: But, if you want to chat about it, you know where to find me. :tongue:

    Isn't there a line in Timothy about women just shutting up and doing as they're told?

    "women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says." 1 Cor 14:34 (NIV). You want me to get THAT tattoed on my back? Really?

    How about one of these?

    “Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” ~ Matthew 4:4

    “The kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.” ~ Romans 14:17


    If I were to get one scriptural/Christian based, one of those would be it. I have 2 tats now - a horse running against a mountain range on my right shoulder blade and one in Tengwar script on my ankle (Tengwar is the Elvish script from Lord of the Rings - it says "Michael Megan I love you". Michael and Megan are my kids, and Michael is also my husband's name.

    When I hit my goal, I am getting how much weight I lost on the inside of my wrist to remind me I never want to go back there and how far I have come.
