1 | Why is a Cross with Jesus not idolatry? | Deut 5:8 | Jim O | 151690 | ||
Why is a Cross with Jesus not idolatry? Dueteronomy says any image of man, woman, or beast (paraphrasing) is an idol. I have not been able to find anything saying it's OK... |

2 | Why is a Cross with Jesus not idolatry? | Deut 5:8 | Michael Draves | 151691 | ||
The previous Pope's opinion can be found on: http://www.truecatholic.org/pope/honor.htm It contains the following statement: A teacher asked the children in catechism class: what is the difference between a Crucifix and the Holy Eucharist (after consecration). A child answer correctly when she said: on the Crucifix we see Jesus, but he is not there. In the Eucharist we do not see Jesus, but He is there. Based on the above it doesn't sound like the crucifix is idolatry. I am not sure why the cherubim were put on the Ark of the Covenant nor why Moses was asked to make the serpent on the pole which Hezekiah later destroyed because it was being worshipped even though the Gospel John uses it as symbolic of Jesus on the cross. |
