Second Command: God too Glorious to Make
January 27th, 2008 by Glenn Hoburg Most modern people hear the Second Commandment, which forbids making images of God for worship, and reason that we’re in the clear. Not many folks have gold or silver statues for worship around the home. However, that’s really a surface understanding of what God is talking about, it is rather any man-made representation of God - physical, emotional, or mental. And, with that definition, all of us break this commandment, and yet God doesn’t leave us there. He provides an image for us.
