Extreme Christian Tattoos God's Law On His Heart

Mitchell Douglas of White Springs, Florida, has taken his faith to the next level in doing what none have ever had the faith or courage to do before, in having God's law written on his heart (Hebrews 10:16; Romans 2:15; Jeremiah 31:33).  Mitchell commented, "You know it had just gotten to the point in my faith where having this on my heart had to be done.  It's something I've been thinking about doing for a long time though."  The procedure was quite dangerous--as you can imagine--requiring a surgical team to first perform the steps of opening the chest cavity before the tattoo artist steps in.  "It's really hard to tattoo a beating heart", the tattoo artist told us, before adding, "It's probably one of the grossest things I've ever tattooed".

When asked about the seemingly extreme nature of this procedure, Mitchell told us that there was so much God has done for Him, and that this is little in comparison.  Still in recovery, Mitchell looks at the pain as very small in light of all that Christ suffered for our sake.  "I mean, have you heard what Jesus went through?  Have you seen the movie 'The Passion of the Christ'? It's brutal stuff, man.  Then after all that, Jesus actually died.  This ain't a thing", he told us bravely, from his hospital bed.

One thing among others that makes this different is now that his chest is sewed up, the only way it can actually be seen is viewing the digital pictures captured by the artist at the time of the procedure.  When asked about this possible drawback, Mitchell said, "You know, most people do like to show off their tats at some point.  I guess I do too.  They all mean something special.   But, this one is extra special.  God knows it's there though. As they say, He knows my heart."  Mitchell pointed to the sky, and then to his chest, wincing a bit from the pain.  "Besides," he added, "I already threw the pictures up on Facebook the moment I was lucid, and made sure it was shared publicly."

When asked if he had any other extreme plans for the future in order to show his devotion to God and to live out his faith in other real tangible ways, Mitchell smiled and asked, "Have you read Psalm 119:11?"
