Catholics: Another One For You by StormInc: 6:32pm On Dec 16, 2018 |
So I posted something about the Catholic Church earlier today and None of the Catholics could answer my question. Well that is by gone. I would like a Catholic to justify the below images and tell me (us) why it is not Idolatory.

“I am the Lord your God, who brought
you out of the land of Egypt, out of the
house of slavery. “You shall have no
other gods before me. “You shall not
make for yourself a carved image, or
any likeness of anything that is in
heaven above, or that is in the earth
beneath, or that is in the water under the
earth. You shall not bow down to them
or serve them, for I the Lord your God
am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of
the fathers on the children to the third
and the fourth generation of those who
hate me, but showing steadfast love to
thousands of those who love me and
keep my commandments.

Where are the Catholics now we need them |

Please leave Catholics alone. Every one should work out that salvation with fear and trembling ( Phil 2:12). If the poster is a Christian which I doubt but if he is this verse of the bible is what is meant for you ( Titus 3:9) |

4.“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5. You shall not bow down to them or worship them" Exodus 20:4-5 It's self explanatory |

Schynthe: Thank you |

op, just form your type of worship and get others saved. . leave the ones in darkness as defined by your belief . its called free will as given by God freely . people will read about you however you end. when you start the act if contemplation, rightly or wrongly a guide will appear. leading you through your predefined steps, like Saul till he arrived Paul. I have a strong conviction that you are lost,hungry and need guidance. will book a mass for your redemption in my church. . . may the Good lord provide illumination to our path towards righteousness. Amen,amen and Amen. |

maybe there are emulating Moses and Solomon who also created carved images |
Re: Catholics: Another One For You by StormInc: 12:46pm On Dec 17, 2018 |
uhuns: Lol. Book a Mass? Joker, if you are a Catholic and you can't justify that, you are a vain one. |

@ op u know nothing about d xtian faith bowing b4 an image or symbol that represents god is nt idolatory because u are adoring what it stands for images are very powerful eg occultic people can harm a person if they perform a ritual on his/her picture even though that person is not physically present so it is in the opposite adoration done in front of an image which represents god goes to god. U can read joshua 7 6-7 |

StormInc:first the thread you earlier posted have responses by Catholics. Secondly the image below is justified by the fact that in the Bible images of cherubs were made and people prostrated in front of them, if that is not idolatry neither is this. In both cases the image portray God's glory and so it is not the image that is venerated but what it represents. |

Clardo: You say, what was this bible verse talking about; 4.“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5. You shall not bow down to them or worship them" Exodus 20:4-5 |
