What does Exodus 20:4 mean to you?
We should not make what is in heaven or earth?
We are not to make anything that is in heaven or on earth, what does that mean for people who make gold crosses as necklaces or designs for jewelry, T-Shirts, clothes, shoes, etc. What about the ones making a statue of Jesus and praying and bowing down to the statue? Or even the statue of Mary? Jesus isn't a fashion statement or an entertaiment vessel. Why are we dragging his names into such materials?
When the prophet bowed down to Jesus in the bible, Jesus told him to get up because he wasn't the one to be bowing down to but God. Even Jesus does not want anyone to treat him as a God. He never said he was God. Why are we doing what God said in the bible NOT to do?
Please state the name of bible used, followed by references to assist your opinions so I can do further research. Forgive me, but I can not study off of answers with nothing to back them up with.
The verse should not be taken literally. It simply means God demands exclusive allegaince like a husband to a wife. It means worshipping something other than God.
Man must not believe in or worship many gods (polytheism). Also, Scripture constantly rejects idols made by hand. "They have mouths and they do not speak. Those worshippers who make them are like them" (Ps 115:4-5). Only the true God gives life and intervenes in history.
Idolatry is not just pagan worship. It also consists of honoring a creature who is not God. This could be demons (Satanism), power, pleasure, money, etc. "You cannot serve God and mammon" (Mt 6:24). Martyrs died for not adoring "the Beast" (Rev 13-14). Idolatry always rejects the Lordship of God.
Adoring the true God gives unity to life, while idolatry is a perversion of man's religious sense, "transferring man's indestructible notion of God, to anything other than God" (Origen).
Peace and blessings!
