It’s that time of year when many will erect pictures of Christ, those who are believers and those who are not,... why is it such a long disagreement even today amongst those even in the Reformed body to understand that its a sin to continue this practice,... ‘’The Second Commandment forbids not only the worship of man-made images of beings regarded as divine, but also the creation of such images. “You shall not make for yourself a carved image.” The tendency is to run this statement together with what follows (“you shall not bow down to them nor serve them”) to conclude that what is forbidden is only the worship of such images. Yet the commandment has two imperatives and expressly forbids the making of such images exactly because it is in the nature of man to fall down and worship what he considers to be divine. Jesus our Lord is in heaven, and He is to be worshiped by faith. He is not to be imaged.’’... Joe Vusich
