Is The Catholic Doctrine Contradictingg The Scripture??? by Kayendy(m): 9:50am On Oct 04, 2015
Was reading d bible this morning and came across Exodus 20vs 4and5.. it say
4) Thou shall not make unto thyself any graven image or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or that is in the water beneath or in the water under the earth
5) Thou shall not bow down thyself to them nor serve them for I The Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me..

So back to my argument, the catholics have pictures and status of virgin Mary and other apostles of christ hanging in their churches, offices, schools and many of them kneel before them to make their prayers...
My question goes so
1)kneeling and bowing before these images, is it proper judging from the scripture I just quoted
Pls I don't mean any harm for those that will quote me, I just want to pure argument that will make me believe that their doctrine is in line with the teachings of the bible

graven image:

a statue or image which people worship as a god or as if it were a god

It means that you should not worship false Gods.

No its not proper.

Do you by any chance have any sticker, wall paper, pastors portrait or poster in your church? If you do, NEVER you kneel and bow in your church because you will be committing the same offence as Catholics.

In conclusion, If only Christians spent half the time they spend in judging others in thinking about their own life and salvation, maybe this world would have been paradise.

Then go ahead dear and save yourself from the craftiness of the devil. Look at the scriptures too, you are educated. No one who reads them without bias, remains in a system of apostasy.

Thank you so much for your advice.

Let us divert the enormous energy we use in faulting others into a more profitable work of 'looking at the scriptures too, and saving ourselves from craftiness'.

Have a nice Sunday Miss.

BTW, I am sure you knew I used the word paradise figuratively to mean a peaceful and happy place.

Why is it that people always want to derail the church she does this people complain she does that people ask why, but when it's turn to talk about their own they remember do not judge, I just wonder which kind people be dis ooo.

And op pls Catholics don't worship images, to us they are like focal points used to direct our minds, a question can u switch on your tv let it be in your front with the volume up back the tv and pray? my guess is NO.

Same way for us Catholics, also when u kneel down and greet an elder same way it isn't termed worship, or during the kneeling process of laying of hands isn't termed worship.
Re: Is The Catholic Doctrine Contradictingg The Scripture??? by Nobody: 4:58am On Oct 05, 2015
If you believe Catholics worships those you mentioned then you are far from reality. What made you think those apostles, saints a Virgin Mary is in heaven, have you been there.
Have you ever seen the pictures of God and angels in any Catholic churches talk more of worshiping them? These are the beings with resemblance to the part of the scriptures you quoted not mere mortals that have existed centuries ago with their sculptured artifacts portrayed all over. Jesus existed and that they have artist in his time, that is why a purported picture of Jesus exist today.
Nobody worships any goddamn image unless you're a closet idol worshipper or someone you know is.
