This is a picture of a Maori facial tattoo, a common tradition among the culture.
There is a lot of archaeological evidence that proves tattoos were done in Egypt, between 4000 and 2000 B.C.
They were also being done by the natives of Polynesia, Philippines, Indonesia and New Zealand (Maori), who tattooed themselves during religious rituals.

The question is: If tattoos were created and developed by pagans, do they have any biblical foundation? From a spiritual and historical perspective, no, they don’t. Rather, the essence of its inspiration was and is Satanic, because it contradicts the principles of the Christian and Jewish faith.

“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘When you have crossed the Jordan into the land of Canaan, then you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, destroy all their engraved stones, destroy all their molded images, and demolish all their high places…” Numbers 33:51-52.

Pay close attention to what is instructed: “destroy all their engraved stones…” Now, if God ordered them to destroy all the engraved stones, why would He allow engravings to be made on someone’s body, which is the temple of His Spirit?

The apostle John saw the condemned, those who were to be tattooed with a mark on their right hand or on their forehead. This mark is the name of the beast or his number: 666 (Revelation 13.16-18). Wouldn’t this be considered a tattoo?

The body of those who serve the Lord Jesus is the temple of the Holy Spirit. Why would you want to tattoo it? What is the benefit in doing that? I Corinthians 6:19

The way I see it, those who get tattooed are trying to look like the children of Baal. The children of God should never try to imitate them, even if that means they’ll be going against the rules of this rotten world.
