According to my American Heritage dictionary the word express means: To make known or indicate, as by words ........ Which is the point Im am trying to make that the express image of God is found not, in icons or graven images of Jesus, to which this article first address, but is found in the Bible, the Living Word of God. Which is the spirit and truth of God, Jesus dwelling inside us. Which now our bodies are a temple to the living God. And Jesus lives with us.

I think we can agree on this.

Look up "express" as an adjective. Like "the express written consent of Major League Baseball."

Which is the point Im am trying to make that the express image of God is found not, in icons or graven images of Jesus, to which this article first address, but is found in the Bible, the Living Word of God.

The Express image of God is not found in icons, I agree. It is found in Jesus, who is the Image of God and the Living Word of God.

I do not agree that the Bible is the Living Word of God. Jesus is.

In beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. Then the Word became flesh, not paper and ink. You have demonstrated the danger that many "Bible only" types fall prey to: the confusion of the Bible with the Word.
