Bible Question:
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... |
Bible Answer: Jim O: "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth" (Exodus 20:4). ....... Archaeologists have observed that a figure of Yahweh has yet to be found in debris of any Israelite town. ...... "In the beginning was the Word, and Word was with God, and the Word was God (John 1:1). Jesus is, therefore, God. ...... "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth" (John 4:24). ....... The reason you have not been able to find anything in Scripture saying it's OK is that there is nothing in Scripture saying it's OK. --Hank |
