===But you and I have no idea what that image is.===

Judging by the fact that Mary was chosen by no less than God and she was a descendant of David in a straight line, Jesus must have been a very handsome man with beautiful semitic features - NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!

Anyway, Jesus said that the most important commandment of all is the commandment of love. If you believe and love God with all your heart, and all that you do is because of that love, do not ever worry.

However, even if you had the best theological knowledge, even if you were the wisest man in the world but you had no love, you would be dead in the eyes of God.
Be sure, Satan knows everything about God, much more than I or you do. But, despite that knowledge he will never enter the Kingdom of God.

We erect that statue because of our deepest love to Jesus. It costs a lot, it needs much effort, yet we do it because we love Jesus and such a public demonstration of our feelings is also very precious, especially now, when Islam tries to conquer Europe.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you.

Isaiah 53

2 ...he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
