Does Jesus qualify as an idol?
Christian churches are full of carved images.
In reading the various definitions of idol, I think
Christians have turned Jesus into the type of idol that he railed against.
We all idol worship in some sense. If you can think
analogically you will agree. Here is a poet that might help you do that. He has
a good message but he himself ends in being an idol worshiper.
Commandment #3 “You
shall have no other gods before[a] me.”
Christians put Jesus before Yahweh.
Commandment #4 “You shall not make for yourself a carved
image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above,
Christian churches are full of carved images.
Gnostic Christians also have an ideal, but we do not let
ourselves be subsumed by our own creations and remain perpetual seekers of the
best god/rules and laws to live by, as Jesus taught.
I see Christians and Muslims as idol worshipers.
Is Jesus a Christian and Muslim idol and are they idol
worshipers as most theologians say?
