We've come to accept many representations of Christ,apostles, et al, Has the question of "graven images" ever been satisfactorily answered? I don't endorse this man's actions,but it does remind us of an issue that may need to be more fully addressed by the church at large. Have we become too dependent upon "images" (the seen) when we should be "fixing our eyes" on what is "unseen"? Or are they a helpful aid for those of lesser or beginning faith?
