Will Tattoos Be In Heaven?

I've been thinking about heaven lately. I've also been thinking about the fact that our bodies will be transformed. So I thought what will happen to tattoos? Will they remain or will they be gone?
Interesting question eh?

Do you guys have any feedback on this question?

Rev. 22:4; "His name shall be in their foreheads". Now this may not necessarily be a literal tattoo, but I like what it represents.

i wrote a lovely long answer and it disappeared. bah.

nutshell.

God is a God of redemption of all things unclean. where in tattooing in this world there is a hint of the beauty (as an art form) it is or can be, and a form of permanent self-committal to something.... God is well able to redeem what is in the mire and show it for the beauty that it is.

art is intended to glorify Him. where now it glorifys anything, when redeemed it will all be for Him, to Him, and for His glory.

He makes all things beautiful.

as for such logical considerations as our heavenly body situation, etc, i haven`t got an answer, lol. but as a redeeming God who takes all things grimy and makes them clean, why should tattoos be any worse than the worm that *i* am that He has redeemed and made something beautiful....É
