lukitoh,you stated,QUOTE,
As for the statues/graven image, I think it is pretty clear that God forbid anyone to worship things other than God. I think you can have paintings/artworks depicting Jesus, etc but you are not allowed to worship it. As long as it is not worshipped, then it is just an art object.UNQUOTE,,,,,,,if you go into the catholic church you will see people lighting candles and kneeling in front of these statues and praying,whether it,s mary jesus or one of the saints,(exodus 20,4&5 says you must never worship OR BOW DOWN,,remember Daniel and co ? they refused to bow down to the kings statue and was thrown into the fire and the lions den,and that was because they was told in EXODUS 20.3.do not worship any other gods but me,(they wouldn,t dare do this nowadays)i tend to believing in GOD,i had a very strange exciting experience a little over 5 years ago,which i won,t disclose here,maybe i will email you,i do not like to hurt other peoples feelings,but what i have stated above is how i see it,mike
