Worshipping

Worshipping images of God is not worshipping God, even if it resembles true worship in some ways. Often we treat an image of the cross or a statue of the Virgin Mary as if they were sacred. But only the God they remind us of is sacred. Pictures of Jesus, cross pendants, statues and other items purchased, made or kept are not the same as the God we worship.
