***Take some time, doctor, and contemplate His Heart.***

What in the world makes you think I have not? [We Protestants make it a regular practice to remember what He has done for us. For me that is not a hollow exercise.]

***You'll find it burns with the same love you see when you read the pages of the Gospels.***

I spend time meditating on Scripture. That is a powerful experience -- true mysticism. Reading Isaiah 53 and contemplating each phrase is truly overwhelming.

'What in the world makes you think I have not?"

I'm sorry, I did not mean to imply you had not. I did, however, infer from your previous post that you found Bible study superior to art as a means of contemplating, praising, worshipping, etc. My point is they are not mutually exclusive. The artwork in question is meant to prompt the soul to a consideration of the Sacrifice about which you speak in your most recent post. My point is that such prompts are entirely biblical.
