In Exodus 25vs18 God commanded the making of a man made cherub of beaten gold on the ark of the covenant. So if making images is wrong God should be the first offender we are only imitating him. In Josue 7vs6 Josue wit al the elders of israel fell prostrate before the ark of the covenant with statue of angels on it and God did not take offence. So if Josue did this and God did not complain what makes you think he will complain when i bow before the statue of Jesus or Mary? Read your bible well dear

Hi bro

MissGdope:


First of all, the bible doesnt state anywhere that we should make an image of Jesus and bow down to it. How are you guys sure that it is really the image of the Lord that you bow down to? It is stone and not Jesus. It is idolatry and there is no two ways about it

But hey, lets just say that its fair enough that you bow down to a supposed image of Jesus Christ because he is your Lord and personal saviour. But please tell me why you would bow down to mary?? The bible tells us to pray in the name of Jesus and the only way to the Father is through Jesus. why would you pray through mary or even hail her?
The bible is there to lead us in the way to live as christians. So i don't understand why any christian or any "denomination" of christianity will do anything contrary to the word of God which is the holy Bible

CharlieMaria:
Dear sister did the Bible state anywhere the word "Bible"? Why do you go on using the bible? Since you can't find the word bible in the book you call bible? Let us consider in the first place what idolatry is: idolatry does not consist in singing the praise of someone or a superior or bowing before the person or the person's spirit. Neither does it consist in making images. Let's take a ride to prove these assertions: In num 21vs6to9 God commanded the Israelites to make a brozen serpent and look at it in order to get healed. God who commanded that knew it was man-made yet he said they must look at it to get healed because his Spirit has possessd that statue. In Exodus 25vs18 God also commanded that 2Cherubs of beaten gold b made on the ark of the covenant and in Josue7vs6, Josue n israeli elders prostrated be4 the ark. Why? because psalm 80vs1, 1sam4:4, 2sam6vs2 ps99vs1to6 and 2kings19vs15 tel us that God enthroned his glory in the middle of the ark above and between the Cherubs. So wen Josue bowed he knew the spirit of God had taken over the man made ark. The Israelites who made the Image of the angels on the ark how are they sure which angel they were makin? God did not say we should not make images at all. We atleast have images and icons of our loved ones, past heroes etc evrywhr can u accuse the Nigeria's president of Idolatry when he salutes the National Flag? You can't accuse a catholic of Idolatry as wel wen he bows befor the statue of Jesus or Mary because bowin down be4 the spirit of a superior is not idolatry confirm this in Gen19vs1 lot bowed down to venerate the two angels in sodom. Even in Gen42vs6 Joseph's brother bowed before him wit al their faces on the ground. If you cnt accuse Lot and Joseph's brother of idolatry then don't accuse catholics either. Now Idolatry consists when the person who is in question sees any person or any object other than God as his uncreated creator, infact his or her endpoint. When you see any creature as your God, that is idolatry. Confirm this frm Exodus 32vs2to4.andvs7to8. So the question is do i or catholics see Mary or her statue or image as God and creator and our endpoint? The answer is No! That will be intolerable heresy.
