Is it allowed for a Christian to get tattoos or piercings according to the bible? The Old Testament has a clear and simple answer to this question. No. We are not supposed to make any incisions or tattoos on our bodies. It is actually even a pagan custom. According to the Bible, our body is a temple for God’s holy Spirit dwelling within us. Therefore, our body doesn’t belong to ourselves, but to God.

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 6:19-20; 1 Corinthians 3:16-17; Romans 12:1
