Evangelist Joyce Meyer claims tattoo is not bad, Says She might get one soon.

Christian speaker and Evangelist, Joyce Meyer, has wowed everyone after she made a biblical case for getting tattoos.

In a video clip posted by Joyce Meyer Ministries which has since gone viral, Meyer explained the difference between being holy and religious in her defence to why tattoo is okay.

She further explained that religious people have made a mess of holiness by putting a bunch of rules and regulations on people. She listed drinking, dancing, wearing makeup and more among those rules.

Meyer quoted Isaiah 44:5 in defense of getting permanent markings. “Holiness is not legalism,” Meyer declared.

The scripture says, “One will say, I am the Lord’s; and another will call himself by the name of Jacob; and another will write [even brand or tattoo] upon his hand, I am the Lord’s, and surname himself by the [honorable] name of Israel.”

She also shared the counterargument often used to discourage believers from getting tattoos found in Leviticus 19:28: “Do not cut your bodies for the dead, and do not mark your skin with tattoos. I am the LORD.”

Meyer says God also tattooed those He loves to Himself. In her words, “The Bible says in Isaiah 49 that God has a picture of you tattooed on the palm of His hand,” she maintained.

“I’m right on the verge of going and getting a tattoo,” she added, pointing to her shoulder blade. “I thought I might as well just push all the religious people right off the cliff and just get it over with.”
