I know when i pray i should face east Ive always thought i am supposed to hang my icons to face east as well, is this wrong? when i pray to the east should my icons face west so i am face to face with them so to speak?
@@peterzinya1 Bible also says that David felt like Jonathan’s love to him was deeper than the love of women 😱 2 Samuel 1:26 NLT: “How I weep for you, my brother Jonathan! Oh, how much I loved you! And your love for me was deep, deeper than the love of women!”
@@peterzinya1So if you read the old testament, you'd know He does. He commands Moses to make images of Cherubim on the Tabernacle and in the Temple. And since Jesus is God incarnate, meaning he took on flesh (which is matter), he made matter holy, and we use matter in our worship of God.
@@orthodoxwarrior God told Moses to make 2 cherub's for his Ark. What did god tell you to do? He told you not to make them for yourselves. So Jesus flesh is the same as catholic wood and stone idols? Ive seen some good catholic excuses for their idolatry, but yours is very inventive. bravo. Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire: 16Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,...Deut 4;15 God said to take good heed unto yourselves, and not make images of male or female. But catholicism is called a false religion for nothing. What ever god hates, catholics love.
@@peterzinya1Funny, because were not even Roman Catholics. Plus, we continue the lineage of Moses and the Old Testament Prophets. If you see ANY representation of the tabernacle, the Temples, you'll see that ln the walls there is imagery, aka iconography. Old synagogues from even before Jesus had Iconography. God isnt against Iconography, hes against worshipping idols, which we dont do....
God bless you, thank you for the video
