President of the Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide, Apostle Suleman Johnson, has advised people against getting tattoo.
Within Nigeria reports that the televangelist admonished those who already have one on their body not to do more.
He writes on his verified Twitter handle on Thursday:
“Really wondering why people do tattoo..it’s a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling..Lev 19.28 speaks about it..in my opinion,if you haven’t done it,don’t do it..if you have done it,don’t do more…”

Pls am a bible scholar and don't debate…if you feel it's good,go and ahead and tattoo from your head to toe..if you understand that scripture it's after the marriage supper of the lamb and it's an inscription.not tattoo related..

Revelations 19:16 says On his robe and on his THIGH he has this name written: king of kings and lord of lords.
What would you call what was written on his thigh? inscription? or Tattoo?

Old testament is not the bible?..don't join the generation of those who down play the old testament and say it's the law..there are things that are not even in the bible but wisdom tells you it's unprofitable..
