Graven Images:
June of 2011

Now I would like to express the Lords view on Christian images that we surround ourselves with not to serve, but to be reminded of the grace of God, but do they not comfort us, in a way that reminds us that we are not alone.

Are we to find comfort in such things, one could say God forbid it, if ye are able to be reminded of his grace only and not find comfort in such things, than go ahead and be surrounded by such things, but if ye find comfort in them, then be not surrounded by them, less ye be in danger of Idolatry for God our heavenly Father is a jealous God.

But the same can be said for anything that we find comfort in, such as our pets, or being out in the wilderness, we do find comfort in these things, so why is it a sin to find comfort in images that reminds us of Gods grace, I suppose one could find comfort in such things, just be on guard, that you take it not beyond reminders.
