I think the images of "christ" are idols.. sinful if one "honors" them with candles, flowers or a kneeler.

A football team can be one's idol. Many things can be, if one places more importance on them than they do on their belief in and their following of the Lord Jesus Christ or if any thing or interest interferes with their committment to Christ.

I can think of no one I know who worships a ceramic or carved idol or picture representation of Jesus Christ instead of the actual Lord Jesus Christ. Also, the former Roman Catholics I know do not value these images more than their relationship to God through Jesus Christ.

So, I ponder which church was and is being warned against idols.

That crucifix, that painting, that statue are false a image of a false jesus...no one knows what he looked like...so men have made their own..... I have seen the pictured with flowers in front of them..candles in front of them ...not really any difference than the golden calf... Sorry
