Ask Him what steps He would have you take, and if He wants to you remove the tattoo if that is possible. If it is hideous or demonic, I personally would cover it with my clothing. Some people also recommend anointing it with oil in prayer and asking the Lord to break the power of the enemy off their lives that has been allowed in through those sites. I also recommend renouncing that activity, in Jesus' name breaking the curses associated with getting the tattoos, and in the name of Jesus commanding the demons to leave that have entered your life through the tattoos. Pray curse breaking prayers in Jesus' name. Break all ties with darkness. Warn others. I hope that helps.Lenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12499007462067501353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993999907085606032.post-54063443798801017082019-07-22T07:27:31.867-07:002019-07-22T07:27:31.867-07:00What is the solution for somebody wearing tattoo o...What is the solution for somebody wearing tattoo on his or her body?

There was nothing that the Father required Him to do for you that He didn't do. He was perfectly obedient, and took your punishment on the cross, so that you would not have to perish.<br /><br />"And, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him." (Heb 5:9).<br /><br />As you can see, He is the source of salvation for all who OBEY Him. Grace is costly. The Lord Himself said that not everyone who says to Him, "Lord, Lord" will enter the kingdom of God, but only those who do the will of the Father in heaven. (Matt 7:21,26).<br /><br />I want you to open your Bible and read these Scriptures and pray for God to show you the TRUTH, the whole truth and nothing but the truth: 1 Pe 1:2; Heb 2:1-3a; 4:11; 10:26-31; Mt 5:8,48; 7:21,26; 14:17; Ac 3:22-23; 5:32; Jn 3:36 (NASB); 5:29; 8:51; 15:10; 1 Jn 2:3; 2 Jn 6; Rom 1:5; 16:26; Rev 12:17; 14:12; 2 Thes 1:8.<br /><br />Without holiness, no man shall see the Lord's face (Heb 12:14). We must purify ourselves and prepare ourselves to meet the Lord. We must live in earth like they do in heaven. We must live a life of love. Those who do not live in holiness, righteousness, and truth will not enter the kingdom.<br /><br />There is nothing to be confused about. This is the Lord's standard for heaven. He holds the keys to the kingdom, not you or any pastor that tells you that you can live however you want and still reach heaven as long as you said a sinners prayer and believe in Jesus. This is Jesus' standard and He is the one whose judgment seat you will stand before and to whom you will have to give an account for everything done while in the body whether good or bad. I want you to be ready for that day. <br /><br />You need to surrender your whole life to Jesus and ask Him to take over your life. You need to cry out for holiness. Ask Him to fill you with His HOLY Spirit and sanctify you and purge you from everything that is not of Him, so that you can be made fit for heaven.<br /><br />It's time for the Bride to prepare herself, because Jesus is coming for a Bride without spot or wrinkle. He's coming very soon. Sooner than you think, so there's no time left to waste.<br /><br />Please read:<br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2012/03/cost-of-discipleship.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2011/11/holy-living-in-perverted-world.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2013/09/aim-for-perfection.html<br /><br />http://len-prayerpromises.blogspot.com/2012/03/covenant-prayer.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.hu/2012/11/commandments-in-new-covenant.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2013/08/walking-in-perfect-will-of-god.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.hu/2013/04/striving-to-enter-kingdom-of-god.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2014/01/clean-hands-and-pure-heart.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2014/01/keeping-your-body-pure-and-holy.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2014/09/separation-from-world.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2014/09/the-forgotten-sin-of-worldliness.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2012/03/is-obedience-optional.html<br /><br />http://len-seekingthelord.blogspot.com/2014/12/sins-that-will-keep-you-from-heaven.html<br /><br />God bless you.

I have been struggling with salvation for years? and every time I think I'm save I read another article like this? about someone went to hell for this or that? really a kid was in hell for a tattoo of a spider? or fashion, and all the other ones above. I'm starting to think salvation is unattainable? Because the more I hear the testimony's of people that have gone to hell and came back and seen all these Christians in hell for what seems to be the struggles of life! Where's the grace of Christ? I'm so confused? I totally believe in Jesus Christ and he die for me because I need saving from myself a sinner. You guys must have something I don't? there's not a day that go's by that I have not committed a sin in one form or another. And it's starting to sound to me that I'm screwed? big sin little sin I'm going to hell. And to say go and sin no more. How? I wish I could, That's why I need him to begin with. Thought that's why Jesus died for us? because were sinners? I thought salvation was a gift? It's not a gift if I don't like what your doing and take it back. I'm just confused with all of it. scoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01854620286596785203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993999907085606032.post-20257510726815650102015-12-03T09:36:26.055-08:002015-12-03T09:36:26.055-08:00Kelvin, you can use the contact us button at the b...Kelvin, you can use the contact us button at the bottom right corner of our website's "About Us" page beneath the photos at dmiworld.org.Lenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12499007462067501353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993999907085606032.post-2589431380402288682015-12-03T06:54:54.589-08:002015-12-03T06:54:54.589-08:00hey len,how can i contact you via e-mail?hey len,how can i contact you via e-mail?Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02786687998333596874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993999907085606032.post-57350743905895970812015-11-02T12:22:25.604-08:002015-11-02T12:22:25.604-08:00You're welcome, Jan.

(2 Tim 3:16-17). You cannot omit any books of the Bible.<br /><br />The Lord Jesus taught from Leviticus when He said, "Love your neighbor as yourself." (Lev 19:18).<br /><br />Secondly, while the English name of the book is Leviticus, (from the Latin, which was derived from the Greek, with reference to the Levites, who were descended from Aaron), the Hebrew name of the book is Wayiqra, meaning, "And He called" (which is the very first Hebrew word in that book, Wayiqra, see http://biblehub.com/interlinear/leviticus/1-1.htm).<br /><br />Thirdly, while some passages in the book address the priests specifically (6:8), the book is intended for all the people of Israel (1:2). It mostly consists of God's words to Moses, which he is commanded to repeat to the Israelites (chapters 1–7, 11–27).<br /><br />Fourthly, even things that specifically pertained to priests may have some kind of application for New Testament believers, since we are a royal priesthood (1 Pe 2:9).<br /><br />I hope that helps.Lenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12499007462067501353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993999907085606032.post-38942022152272671562015-11-01T12:26:19.707-08:002015-11-01T12:26:19.707-08:00I see the verse about tattoos is in Leviticus 19:2...I see the verse about tattoos is in Leviticus 19:28, but wasn't the book for the Levites?

N...Hey Stunt, it's good to hear from you again. No problem about the delay in your reply. The testimonies can definitely be shocking, but I'd rather be shocked now than later when it's too late. The key is genuine repentance, returning to the Lord with total consecration, and committment to a life of holiness. In the blink of an eye, He'll be back and this will all be over. So it's best to give Him explicit permission to do whatever it takes to make sure you don't miss heaven (Lk 13:24; Mt 5:30; Heb 12:14). <br /><br />And yes, you're correct that no matter how holy and righteous anybody lives, although that is still necessary, nobody will make it into heaven except by the grace of God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Cling to God and seek Him daily.<br /><br />Jesus told the woman, "neither do I condemn you," which is wonderful, but what we forget to quote is the part where He said, "Go and sin no more." (Jn 8:11; 1 Jn 2:1).<br /><br />Please share this message to others who need to hear it, so they can have a chance to repent like you did. Stay in touch!

It's frightening when you do read these testimonies and they speak of these things such as tattoos or piercings preventing you from entering heaven. It does kind of hit you and reality sets in as if you have shut your way out of the kingdom of heaven..but I do know that we all do fall short of the grace of God each and everyday and it's by his mercy and grace we get by daily.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01452514252769804763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993999907085606032.post-1367801990059416732015-07-14T10:14:22.242-07:002015-07-14T10:14:22.242-07:00Amen, God bless you, Naomi!Amen, God bless you, Naomi!Lenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12499007462067501353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993999907085606032.post-43430385382484451602015-07-14T00:25:24.348-07:002015-07-14T00:25:24.348-07:00Bless you Len, it is wonderful to have this confir...Bless you Len, it is wonderful to have this confirmation of what the Holy Spirit has shown to me.
