The Bible was also written by Man. It didn't fall from heaven.

The Ark symbolized God's presence. I am disappointed that you should use the Ark as an excuse for bowing down to the image of a mortal. Fine, the Ark was made by man but it symbolized the presence of God. It was sacred.

BluntBoy:


Bro, I asked "who told you to bow down to images?"

Did Solomon create those images to bow down to them? My question since yesterday has been: "who told you to bow down to images?" I can't remember ever asking about the images in your church buildings.

Is the Ark God??.....the Ark was made by man, it was carved ..... that makes d Ark an image..the Ark had further images of winged creatures GOD himself asked Moses to make......isn't it the same God that said do not make images.... Asking moses to make images....is God contradicting himself.

Y did God kill the King who desecrated his chalice by using it to dine with prostitute.....isn't that cup just an image??, of want important is d chalice to God??

I see. So, Mary is now in the same league with God. If the Ark was bowed down to, then the image of Mary should be bowed down to also. May God save you from your ignorance.

The Ark embodied God Almighty.

He and all his men went to Baalah in Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the Name, the name of the LORD Almighty, who is enthroned between the cherubim on the ark. (2 Samuel 6:2)

And if I may ask, where is even the Ark today?

freshboi88:

He was not worshipping the chest but God Almighty. God's throne was the very cover of the Ark. It was the atonement cover or "mercy seat".

Oga ansa question oh....don't run away

WHICH QUESTION? I AM NOT TRYING TO WIN AN ARGUMENT HERE...

NOW, THE CHERUBIM THAT SOLOMON MADE WAS IT THE IMAGE/STATUE OF GOD?. HOW DOES THE MOTIONLESS STATUE OF FAKE JESUS, WHICH YOU PEOPLE HONOUR AND PRAY TO BECOMES THE IMAGE OF GOD? IF YOU DON'T KNOW, YOU ARE PRAYING TO A DEMON, AND NOT TO THE LIVING AND ETERNAL GOD...

PEACE AND WISDOM TO YOU FROM CHRIST JESUS THE SAVIOUR OF ALL MEN...AMEN!

freshboi88, I don't know what point you are trying to make. But comparing your idols to the Ark of the Covenant is a serous insult.

Ur point is baseless.....u said God said no one should make an image and we make images so we r idolaters....I now referred u to Solomons temple....and showed u evidence of images n Gods temple....u said he was instructed by God to make dem, I said show me were in scripture did u find that lie....u could not.......

Mind u if the sanctuary had these images, wouldn't it mean that it was before these images priest then prayed n offered sacrifices...

Because He is God. Who can question His ways.

The Ark of the covenant was also an image created by man and God took up presence in it....Joshua bowed bfre it....was he worshipping the ark....ansa d question

BluntBoy:

So who are u then to criticize and do his job for him??

Was Joshua worshipping the ark or its winged creature wen he bowed bfre it??

freshboi88:

I am not doing His job. I am only following His Words. If you can provide evidences that He specifically asked us to make images of Mary and bow down to them, then, I will rest my case.

freshboi88:

He was in the presence of God. The Ark embodied God. Moreover, you couldn't look straight at the Ark like a dummy.

Hahaha....ignoramus.....his words never asked u to condemn others..condemnation and judgement is for God alone.. Doing his words just like Saul tot he was doing his words passionately wen he was persecuting Christians ....... Show me were he frowned at Solomon for making images of winged angels in heaven, show me were God frowned at Joshua for bowing down to d Ark and its winged creature, then I'll gladly accept and leave d church

The Ark embodied God so Joshua was merely worshipping God.

As for Solomon, he was not the one that planned the temple. It was all God's plan. Solomon merely executed it.

Read this verse:

Then David gave his son Solomon the plans for the portico of the temple, its buildings, its storerooms, its upper parts, its inner rooms and the place of atonement. (1 Chronicles 28:11)

What of when God told Moses to make a snake and our it up so that any body who looks at it will he healed .....Catholics don't worship idols ...they look onto it just like in the time of Moses

freshboi88:

FIRSTLY, I NEVER SAID GOD INSTRUCTED ANYBODY TO MAKE IMAGE OF HIM...YOU CAN CHECK MY POST AGAIN.

SECONDLY, YOU ARE ASSUMING THING. NO ONE PRAYED FACING ANY STATUE.

THIRDLY, THE PRACTICE OF THE OLD TESTAMENT/CONVENANT HAS BEEN DONE AWAY WITH...BELIEVERS ARE NOW THE PHYSICAL TEMPLE AND ARK OF GOD.

freshboi88:

God Himself referred to the Ark like it was Himself.

Read these verses:

1 Chronicles 17:4-6 King James Version (KJV)

Go and tell David my servant, Thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in:

For I have not dwelt in an house since the day that I brought up Israel unto this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from one tabernacle to another.

Wheresoever I have walked with all Israel, spake I a word to any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, Why have ye not built me an house of cedars? (1 Chronicles 17:4-6)

Witlee:
What of when God told Moses to make a snake and our it up so that any body who looks at it will he healed .....Catholics don't worship idols ...they look onto it just like in the time of Moses

Good. Now, show us where God asked us to make images of Mary and bow down to them. And please, did the looking up at the snake become a regular practice or tradition?
