on a post in carm someone there posted the use of images of christ because luther and calvin supported it. my point is we christains at times make our own popes and we should'nt because these were great men that God used to revive and reform His church-yet they were sinners and as sinners at times they acted contary to God's ways. So when we do we should especially run to Holy Scriptures and put all teachings of men under it-rejected if scriptures Do Not support it directly or indirectly and accepted if scriptures support it directly or indirectly --that alone is binding to our conscience,mind and heart.
So returning to the title of this post:
i rather take hold of the real jesus that lives and rules now as prophet,priest and king in heaven and here in His church and that died and saved me from the power,bondage,pollution and consequences of my sin Than a pseudo-jesus that lives in our sinful minds and hearts(which is a mixture of some biblical crumbs-and the majority from extra biblical sources such as :heresies,cults,hollywood,arts,media,personal bias,superstitions and traditions etc) that is no real prophet,priest or king only in one's sinful heart and imagination...and who did not die for anyone that is nothing more than a idol of wood and stone that cannot hear or speak or respond and cannot save anyone from the power,bondage,pollution and consequences of sin and the only power it has is to lead you away and keep you from knowing the real Jesus Christ as revealed in God's Holy word.
